More liquor! Our mourners manage their grief as they break down the decisive Dodgers series: Eldridge breaks through, the Giants run out of pitching, and McDonald shuts 'em down (wait, who?). Then they discuss the biggest need for next year ... and not it's not offense.
Our new cocktail podcast, The Perfect Sip, is on hiatus but new episodes are in production. (Yeah, it's taking a long time ... life, you know?) If you haven't listened yet, you can catch up here: https://the-perfect-sip.captivate.fm/listen
Speaking of cocktails, today Ben is drinking a Three Rum Double while Matthew is drinking Lilywhacker. Recipes below.
Three Rum Double
- 2 oz Overproof rum (FTD)
- 2 oz Demerara rum
- 0.5 oz 151 rum
- 1 oz mango juice
- 1 oz pineapple juice
- 1 oz lime juice
- 1 oz honey syrup
- 1/2 oz grenadine
- Combine juices, honey syrup, grenadine and overproof and Demerara rums in a shaker with ice. Shake until chilled. Strain into a ice filled hurricane glass. Float the 151 rum on top. Sip with a friend.
Lilywhacker
- 2 oz Apple brandy - I am using Ambix Apple Brandy out of Sebastopol
- 3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
- 1/2 oz Cointreau
- 2 dashes chocolate bitters
- Stir all ingredients in a mixing glass with ice until well-chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish is optional but an orange twist would be nice.
