The restaurant that is... But over to my drink for the day would have to be the Hanky Panky. Good ole fashioned classic london cocktail. Ada Coleman became the second person to hold the post of Head Bartender at the Savoy in 1898. She later created the cocktail for English comedy actor Charles Hawtrey, who asked her for "something with a bit of punch in it". The first time he tasted the results of her hours of experimentation, he replied, "By jove! That's the real hanky panky!" And the name stuck! 2 PARTS Beefeater London Dry Gin 2 PARTS Italian vermouth 2 DASH Fernet Branca SHAKE All ingredients over ice STRAIN Into a chilled cocktail glass SQUEEZE A freshly cut orange peel on top Video and instructions from the beefeater distiller are up for you guys too! http://www.beefeatergin.com/mixology/video.php

C carolineno Member Boston Joined: May 30, 2009 Posts: 10	C carolineno Posted posted on Mon, Jun 15, 2009 8:27 AM Last night: I was feeling tired of my usual drinks so I attempted this Planter's Punch recipe, from "The Essential Cocktail" by Dale DeGroff. It's not a bad book. 3/4 oz Myers 3/4 oz light rum 3/4 oz curacao 1/2 oz falernum (didn't have on hand boo - trying to fix this today) 1 oz simple syrup (seems heavy to me) 3/4 oz pineapple juice 3/4 oz fresh oj 1/2 oz lime juice dash of grenadine dash of Angostura bitters It was ok. I doubled the recipe and didn't want to fool with decimal points so it ended up being rather rummy. Probably will go back to the fog cutter this week. Now I'm drinking a rank iced coffee.

"ZOMBIE" Used Meyer's for the Jamaican, substituted a Virgin Island rum for the Puerto Rican and El Dorado 151 for the Lemon Hart -otherwise everything else was the same. Strong & tasty! NOTE: Easy to advance prep for group service adding the dash of Pernod on a per-drink basis.
M MrBaliHai Tiki Socialite Behind the Cheddar Curtain Joined: Jun 01, 2002 Posts: 1031	M MrBaliHai Posted posted on Thu, Jun 25, 2009 11:48 AM I'm currently enjoying one of my favorite summertime tipples, a simple French-style Pernod on the rocks. The cool, anise flavor really cuts through the heat and humidity! Fill a double Old-Fashioned glass with ice cubes, then add 1-2 oz. Pernod (depending on how much you like the stuff), then add 5 oz. Water My all-time favorite summertime drink is a Ron y Limón made with 7-year Havana Club and Bacardi Limón, but I ain't got no HC...:(
