Episode 74 - Brandy, You're a Fine Drink!

This Episode's Cast of Characters

One thing for sure, brandy is dandy!  Let's try a couple of cocktails that have brandy in them

Sir Walter

1 1/2 ounces brandy
1 1/2 ounces rum
1 teaspoon grenadine
1 teaspoon curacao
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

This is a drink that doesn't taste anything like you think it might.  It's not rummy and the brandy doesn't come through to strong.  It's really well balanced.  Plus, if you like orange, the curacao comes in about 10 seconds later in the aftertaste.  It's one of the wonders of science!  Try it out!

This next drink is recommended as a night time drink.  A drink to take to bed with you.  With a good book.  It's the Au Revoir!

Au Revoir

1 1/2 ounces brandy
1 1/2 ounces sloe gin
Juice of one lemon
1 egg white

Add the brandy, sloe gin, lemon juice and egg white (in that order) into an ice filled cocktail shaker.  Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.  Garnish with a lemon twist.

Mmmmm.  Creamy frothy goodness.  Try it tonight before you go to bed and leave a comment on what you dreamed about!

As always . . . . TIP BIG!
