On one hand, I'd like to select a liquor that truly represents the people -- a high proof, low cost whiskey that truly represents the history of America. On the other hand... now that the Republicans in Congress appear to have formally recognized my position as Secretary of Liquor, I also feel the need to side the bastard 1%, and select a whiskey thats mediocre, unavailable to nearly the entire world, and outside the price point of the vast majority of the people. But today, as I walked the halls of Congress... I was reminded at how broken our society has become. Instead of choosing one, or the other... I have chosen to make a compromise.

since 2DCAT recommended such a great rye, tonight i'll be having a Classic Manhattan 3oz rye whiskey 1.5oz sweet vermouth few drops of bitters cherry garnish with citrus peel mixed on ice, served neat.   they're beautiful i know! so to make one  first grab a shaker with ice in it, glass, and sweet vermouth. garnish the glass with a lemon peel if youre classy. add the rye whiskey and the vermouth to the shaker in a 1:2 ratio.  next add a few drops of bitters, if you have them peach biters add a sweet kick instead of the usual. swirl it around until its all mixed up. drop a cherry in the glass, i smash them against the side so its muddled and you don't have to wait for the end to taste it.

2DCAT posted:A lot of people like buying store-bought vermouth, and while there is a lot of good stuff out there (punt e mas and antica formula immediately come to mind), you can do it better and cheaper if you do it on your own: im definitely trying this one my summer settles down. also gonna share my polish brandy recepie when I make another batch.

Old Kentucky Shark posted:Adults over the age of 18. Also, the numbers are slightly off; it's 30% don't drink, 30% drink less than 1 drink a week, 20% drink less than once a day, 10% drink approximately twice a day, and the final 10% averages 74 drinks per week or more than 10 drinks per day. i wonder how this break up by region. im east coast and i struggle to think of anyone 18-40 who drinks LESS than like 4 drinks a weekend. that upper 10% really making bank for the alcohol companies. i drink excessively and still probably only ~20 drinks worth of alcohol a week.

since i have no lime, tonight's coctail is not the delicious cosmopolitan it is instead a trashy vodka cran remember that ice will throw off your ratios, and you don't want to overfill your glass (having extra is never frowned upon though!) whatever size you want, 1/2 a glass of cranberry juice, 1/4 of vodka, 1/4 of triplesec. makes for a sweet drink that you can pound and discover you have made yourself drunk without realizing it. then the next 3 drinks continue to hit you as you slouch into the couch and mainline tweet refreshes. cranberry juice is cheep and takes the edge off.  for those of you curious, thinking this sounds a lot like a cosmo. a proper cosmo is made out of the far better cointreau instead of triplesec, with lime juice, and has a much smaller amount of cranberry.

Epic High Five posted:PBR is also union made in America PBR won a blue ribbon st the Chicago worlds fair. If it was good enough back then it's obviously even better now. unfortunately yungling is even better, both in the maga classic america sense and in the more important actual taste sense

Epic High Five posted:What about the taste:price ratio huh yuengling is better than pbr for the same price. that might actually be local shipping costs though, depends if you don't live on the east coast. Never tried hamms, but it being as cheep as natty gives me an idea as to what to expect

 so its a heat wave here so i cant go with someting heavy. tonights coctail is the haleys comet (obviously spelled differently than the astronomical sort) 1.5 oz gin (i go with hendricks) 1/4 oz st. germain 1/4 of grapefruit (best) or OJ (backup) shake over ice, pour into glass top with ginger beer, i aim for about 4oz (third of a can) for these ratios. its a really light and tasty summer drink, i make it in 2 gallon gatorade coolers for beach days with slightly higher fractions of juice and ginger so you dont die.

I'm a big fan of Bundaberg myself. i think its good. although its hard to compare since its the easiest to get up here. i'll keep an eye open for bundaberg and do a side by side if i get a chance
