Time for a Drink: Hot Buttered Rum

From Recipes Let’s start the weekend right–with a cocktail recipe from Paul Clarke ( The Cocktail Chronicles ). Need more than one? Hit up the archives. Cheers! Until very recently, I found the concept of hot-buttered rum more appealing than the reality hot-buttered rum. While I like each of the components named in the drink—heat (which is especially welcome in early January), butter, of course, and rum (what’s not to like)—the idea of mixing them together into a warm, boozy drink topped with a slick of butterfat always deterred me from actually making it. But this recent holiday season, while needing something warm but wanting something out of my usual rotation, I gave the drink a spin and discovered that with a little TLC, the hot-buttered rum in your mug can turn out as good as the one in your imagination. While you can purchase hot-buttered rum batter in a supermarket, as a general rule I’d suggest you try making your own. I wound up trying several versions, as well as reviewing a number of recipes, some of which call for as few ingredients as rum, hot water, butter and sugar, while others were more replete with spices, flavorings …

Time for a Drink: Fernet Old Fashioned

From Recipes Let’s start the weekend right–with a cocktail recipe from Paul Clarke ( The Cocktail Chronicles ). Need more than one? Hit up the archives. Cheers! Ooh , really shouldn’t have had that second slice of pie. And that last scoop of stuffing? What was I thinking? Fortunately, as I blogged about earlier, I had the foresight to pack some Fernet Branca to the in-laws on Thanksgiving. While this mint and eucalyptus-laced Italian digestivo can knock an overstuffed stomach back down to size all on its own, it also packs a powerful flavor punch in a handful of cocktails. Here’s one that was put together by my friend Rick at Kaiser Penguin : the Fernet Old Fashioned. By simply substituting the amaro for the more familiar bourbon or rye, this drink bolsters Fernet’s already mighty powers as a digestive aid with a touch of aromatic bitters (also good for an upset stomach) and a dab of sugar to make it all a bit more soothing. There, now—better? Now who’s up for a post-Thanksgiving turkey sandwich? Fernet Old Fashioned Ingredients 2 ounces Fernet Branca 1/4 to 1/2 ounce simple syrup (to taste) 2 to 3 dashes Angostura orange bitters …

Time for a Drink: Penicillin Cocktail

From Recipes Let’s start the weekend right—with a cocktail recipe from Paul Clarke ( The Cocktail Chronicles ). Need more than one? Hit up the archives. Cheers! It may not be as powerful as a flu shot or have the healing properties of the antibiotic it’s named for, but the Penicillin Cocktail is a surefire cure for a chilly autumn night. Originally created by New York bartender Sam Ross , the Penicillin Cocktail takes the warming, soothing flavors of honey, lemon juice and fresh ginger, and fortifies them with a good dose of scotch whisky. And as if that isn’t enough, the drink is topped with a thin pour of headily aromatic Islay malt , which gives the drink a fragrance as alluring as any woodsmoke-laced autumn breeze. Other bartenders have taken Ross’s formula and adapted it for drinks made with tequila , gin, and rum , all with great results, but the scotch-based original is always a good place to start. And one note on the preparation: the original drink uses a house-made ginger-honey syrup; since the spark of fresh ginger fades so quickly, home mixologists may be better served by simply muddling a few slices of fresh ginger in the drink, rather than mixing a batch of syrup that will likely lose its luster before the…

Time for a Drink: Bloody Mary

From Recipes “The Bloody Mary is open to almost any interpretation.” [ Flickr: kthread ] I hesitate to even broach the topic of the Bloody Mary. For one thing, it’s one of those ubiquitous drinks that absolutely everyone has their own way of preparing. So why even bring it up? Because everyone has their own way of preparing it, and I’m curious how you do it. The Bloody Mary is, of course, a staple of the American brunch and a universal hangover cure. The drink’s origins are oft-rumored and still open to the kind of disputed bickering that is absolutely painful on a weekend morning, so it’s best to move onto the heart of the matter: what’s essential in your Bloody Mary? Me, I’m a spicy kind of guy (as long as it’s not over the top): a little Tabasco, a little horseradish, and for extra complexity in what can otherwise be a top-heavy drink, I prefer to use gin. But really, the Bloody Mary is open to almost any interpretation and is one of the few drinks that doesn’t follow rigid rules and ideological sniping. (And while I hesitate to introduce any rules regarding this drink, there is one that you should keep in mind: do not order a Bloody …

Time for a Drink: San Martin

From Recipes Let’s start the weekend right–with a cocktail recipe from Paul Clarke ( The Cocktail Chronicles ). Need more than one? Hit up the archives. Cheers! Who knows for certain where or when this drink originated. Regardless, it’s certainly made the rounds over the past century. The San Martin first cropped up in bar manuals in 1922, when a slim volume called Cocktails: How to Mix Them listed it as “a well-known South American drink.” While it appeared under a slightly altered name in the 1930s, it popped up again in 1951 in Charles H. Baker’s South American Gentleman’s Companion . After sleeping for much of the rest of the century, the San Martin eventually wandered into some of today’s craft-cocktail bars, where it continues to hang out as a B-string classic cocktail. It’s not surprising that the San Martin made its reappearance as part of the cocktail revival—it’s tasty enough and simple enough to satisfy most any classic-cocktail enthusiast. The question is why it hasn’t played a bigger role. Eclipsed by close cousins like the Bijou or the Martinez, the San Martin features a delicate botanical interplay between its three ingredients. When the mood for a crisp yet complex cocktail comes upon you, the San Martin will …

Shrek’s Drink …

This creation is not new actually, Soymilk with Grass Jelly is a common combination! What I did was change the soymilk to Green Tea Soymilk as I still have some left, it gives a different colour – Green ‘N’ Black rather the traditional Milky White ‘N’ Black – maybe a little simple surprise for the kid – name it as Shrek’s Drink! By the way, any kid can make this drink easily. I would put the grass jelly in a container, using a knife (plastic knife) and go through it in all directions, within minutes, it is all done if you don’t mind about the shape. Or use a grater to do it.

Time for a Drink: Drink Without a Name

From Recipes A vodka cocktail for those who claim to hate vodka cocktails. I suppose, technically, there are many drinks that could carry this moniker. Just witness the glasses of mysterious odds and ends passed into the living room a couple of hours into a rollicking weekend party. But this particular drink is worth remembering, even if the name doesn’t exactly trip off the tongue. Developed by longtime bartender-turned-architect Paul Harrington and included in his (now sadly out of print) book, Cocktail: The Drinks Bible for the 21st Century , the Drink Without a Name is a vodka cocktail for those who claim to hate vodka cocktails. While vodka drinks all too often slink into the realm of blandness, the Drink Without a Name uses vodka’s neutral character to soften the blow of its two other vibrantly flavored ingredients: the dry, orange-flavored Cointreau and the bombastic, herbaceously complex green Chartreuse. A common topic of conversation among cocktail geeks is how to get vodka-drinking friends to try more interesting cocktails. The Drink Without a Name certainly falls into the “interesting” category, and it’s…

Time for a Drink: Turf Club Cocktail

From Recipes Let’s start the weekend right—with a cocktail recipe from Paul Clarke ( The Cocktail Chronicles ). Need more than one? Hit up the archives. Cheers! When it comes to cocktail genealogy, the martini has a pedigree that’s as murky as that of a stray dog. Nobody knows for sure when or where it was created (be suspicious of those who say they do) and the annals of late 19th and early 20th century mixology are full of assorted prototypes and variations that are part of the martini’s extensive family tree. Here’s one that’s kind of fun: the Turf Club Cocktail. There are several versions of this drink floating around the old books, and it was certainly being mixed and poured before the dry martini settled into its identity. This recipe is adapted from the one that appears in the Savoy Cocktail Book from 1930, and listed in an Imbibe feature about gin I wrote for the magazine’s current issue. The drink was suggested to me by Eric Alperin from The Varnish in Los Angeles—it has a suave potency of flavor…
