A neighbor is moving overseas and bequeathed us his stash of booze. It's a mixed bag of stuff I like (Screech), stuff I don't (port, vermouth, random cordials), and some WTH... namely, Dom B&B. Can anybody suggest good things to do with B&B, other than sipping? |

B&B is essentially a bottled 1:1 ratio of Benedictine to brandy/cognac, so any recipes that call for equal parts of each should work. Here are a few that I’ve enjoyed. I don’t know any specific tiki drinks that fit the bill, although I did find the first one on Beachbum Berry’s blog before he updated his website a few years ago. Touchable 1 oz gold rum Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a cinnamon stick. 1 oz rye whiskey Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a brandied cherry. 1-1/2 oz Bombay Sapphire gin Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish by floating a slice of kiwi in the glass. |

Good point. If using the Bum’s 1950’s recipe (Remixed, p 88; my preferred version), sub B&B for both the Benedictine and brandy, and the overall flavor shouldn’t change. |
