    I LIVE for a good Manhattan!

    There are several variations on the theme but I tend to like roughly the classic 2:1 ratio of bourbon to vermouth:

    3 oz Old Granddad Bottled In Bond
    1 1/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
    2-3 dashes Angostura Bitters
    1 Marachino Cherry

    Shake vigorously, strain, serve with cherry.



    Serve & Enjoy!

    I am known as a bit of a foody and booze snob among my friends here at school, the give me $#it for it, but they never mind when i cook or make them a drink.

    The House ladies drink for the summer has been a lemon martini:

    1oz Grey Goose
    .5oz lemonchello (or to your taste)
    A good squeeze of a lemon
    Chilled and served

    5 do Mojitos by the pitcher when I make them.

    A good helping of mint leaves in a food processor with powdered sugar and tow to three limes squeezes to death and then the pulp from at least one. Chop up nicely, scrape in to a pitcher, add white rum (again preferance). When mixing drink pour some in to a glass then top with club soda.

    (I really dont measure anything as you will see, I just go with my gut)

    Moscow Mule (great refresher)

    1 part vodka
    1 part lime juice
    3 parts ginger beer or ale if you like it sweeter
    and a dash of bitters if you want.

    One of my favorites is:
    Awamori (a kind of japanese alcohol) and coke, mix as you would rum and coke.

    Umeshu (Japanese plum wine) and soda

    Sangria:

    1 bottle Rosa
    1 bottle rojita
    2 shots conac
    2 peaches
    2 necterines
    strawberries
    rasberries
    and basically any other fruit you can stuff in it before over flowing
    let sit for at least 24 hours and then enjoy cold.

    If you want something tasty for your icecream try this

    In a pan melt some sugar with a little water as you would to make a simple sugar. add rum and then butterscotch snapps, turn down heat to a simmer till thickens. If you have trouble with it thickening add a little bit of rice flour to thicken. turn of heat add a little more rum and then cool in teh fridge or serve hot on the icecream.

    Sorry to all for my lack of measuring but well the only thing i have the measures are some mason jars.

    The laziest cocktail -- Tommy Bahama rum mixed with tropical blend fruit juice. You decide the ratios. :eatdrink047

    Two fingers of Balvenie Single Cask Scotch, neat. I agree with W. C. Fields on the use of ice with Scotch:

    "Good Scotch doesn't need it, bad Scotch doesn't deserve it."

    Sooo tasty

    The Apple pie shot

    1 gallon apple juice
    1/2 gallon fresh apple cider
    3 - 4 cinnamon sticks
    1 liter Everclear® alcohol

    Put the juice, cider, and cinnamon sticks into a pan and let simmer on the stove for about 2 hours (not boil). Turn off heat, pour in 1 liter or 2/3 liter Everclear (no taste of alcohol) to the batch and pour into punch cups. Very potent, tastes exactly like apple pie.

    Man, I love Dogfish Head Festina Peche. Unfortunatly, it is only around during the warm months.

    When it's cold I just drink beer (Yeungling now that it's available in Georgia) and

    apple cider
    Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum
    a pad of butter
    and some spices

    Egg Nog





    I like mine with:
    Spiced rum (Capn Morgans or Myers works just fine)
    Brandy and
    a pinch ' O nutmeg​


    Ive never tried to make it from scratch cause we have a cuppa local dairies that make killer nog. ​



    edit: I made my own from scratch.....................It IS worth it :D
