Saludé!

I started this collection to forward to [info]hoshizora to thank him for indulging me and mine on his birthday-night. But then it was [info]kuchisake_onna*'s day and now [info]hlaron's day...
So I'm just going to post these to say, whoever you are, here's to making it the bestest day!

(Stephen’s) Marmalade Sour, The Brothers Bloom Soundtrack Party. New Haven, CT.

3 oz. Cachaça
1 oz. Lemon Juice
1 oz. Simple Syrup
2 dashes Fee’s Orange Bitters
1 egg white
2 T. Orange Marmalade (or peach jam)

This is my new favorite drink, based on Jamie Boudreau’s amazing Marmalade Sour. I like it with a bit more sweetness, but lets face it - Cachaça is amazing, any way you serve it. I put it on the menu for the Brothers Bloom cocktail party and it seemed to be the perfect drink to represent Stephen. A bit sweet, a bit smoky, a bit of boisterous fun.

Marke put together this moving picture version of my take on a Combustible Edison.
2 oz. Brandy (heated)
1 oz. Campari
1 oz. Lemon Juice

Pour Brandy into glass and ignite. Shake Campari and Lemon juice over ice and slowly pour over flaming Brandy. (Extinguish before drinking)
Note: After seeing Condorman numerous times as a kid, I always thought it was possible to drink a flaming cocktail (and subsequently blow a fireball out of your mouth). While preparing this drink, my friend told me about someone he knew who gave himself third degree burns by drinking a flaming cocktail. Such a disappointment.

When you're done with something, blow it up.
I would love the instructions in the picture

Manhattan. P.F'n. Changs, Boston Commons.
2 oz. Woodford Reserve
1 oz. Sweet Vermouth
1 dash Blood Orange Bitters
(proportions estimated)
I shit you not, this is the best Manhattan I've had (Woodford is the suspected culprit)& From P.F'n. Chang's! Usually I'll default to my chain-restaurant drink in this situation, but I guess it's all about the bartender. I never did catch hizzer name.

Balthazar Ginger Citrus Iced Tea (minus the ice). Making its way up to 64th & York in a cab. When we reach our destination, the ice shall be added.

It's sort of a lot of work for a drink. But it's the kind of drink that makes it worth it.

I don't like ginger or iced tea, but something tells me I should try this drink.
