A friend mentioned having a cocktail somewhere on the Outer Banks back in the 90s that featured a shark attack/shark bite cocktail. It was a blue cocktail that came with a rubber shark floating in it The shark was filled with grenadine. You would dump the grenadine out and it looks like blood in the water. Anyone remember the name?

All I can come up with is a pic from Tortuga's Lie.

Okay, I finished the pot of coffee.

I recall a shark bite drink that my kids used to get at Mama Kwan's. I had a cabinet full of rubber sharks from them. I believe Goombays had one as well. Obviously, neither were alcoholic drinks though.

I believe the adult version at Toog's is called the Shark Attack and the kids' version is called the Near Miss which cracks me up.
