This is a mug shaped like a toilet and marked for the Double Down Saloon, owned by P. Moss (the same owner as Frankie's Tiki Bar). This is a limited edition version of the mug in black and the regular version is glazed in white. These mugs are used to serve the "Ass Juice" cocktail, which is a sweet, often tropical tasting concoction with a stomach-turning origin. It began with a Jagermeister knockoff called Bekturova that the bar got a few bottles of. "It was disgusting," Moss says. "Even bums wouldn't drink it." He made a sign offering shots of the stuff for $3. Then $2. Then $1. Still, no takers. "So I crossed out 'Bekturova,' wrote out 'Ass Juice' and I sold out immediately," Moss says. "I go, 'I can make my own Ass Juice.' It just became huge. We've sold thousands and thousands and thousands of Ass Juice T-shirts." He notes that they also sell around 10 Ass Juice shot mugs, shaped like a miniature toilet, on a nightly basis, though there's still no set recipe for the tangy, potent libation among the various bartenders who make it. "It's all different," Moss says. "Basically, it has to taste good, it has to be fruity and it has to look like (crap)."
