When you’re trapped inside to avoid the dreaded “wintry mix”, a terribly bland yet dangerous concoction of various forms of H20, all you need to wet your whistles is a little creativity and whatever can be found in the kitchen + bourbon and whiskey.
Here are recipes guaranteed to lift your spirits and keep you entertained until you can safely leave home again:
THE FAUX-LD FASHIONED
INGREDIENTS:
Bourbon
Bitters
Ice
Marmalade of questionable age
TO DO:
Muddle the marmalade and bitters til it’s good and smashed up
Add ice and bourbon
Serve in whatever glasses are clean.
THE SHAKE WEIGHT
(improvised whiskey sour)
INGREDIENTS:
Whiskey
1 shot ginger syrup (see below)
1 egg white
squeezed lime juice (should be lemons but we have limes so that’s how it is)
TO DO:
Add all ingredients to shaker and shake it to shit – see video.
Serve in oddly shaped glasses that someone bought at a flea market.
Enjoy and stay warm!
luv,
Saint B
