Thank you Irene for giving us an excuse to drink. As if we needed one.
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted. I’ve been spending a lot of time at my handbag site at crimsonholly.com. I apologize that my attention span can not handle two websites.
Anywho. Is it sick that I’m excited about the hurricane that supposedly coming to pummel us? Hoping to
finish the job that the earthquake started.
Earthquake? Now hurricane? If frogs start falling from the sky I say it’s time to repent folks.
I’m excited to see weather whether this chick is as bad as all the weather people have predicted.
One the menu tonight:Regardless of the aftermath, we’re stuck inside. So let the drinking began.
The Dark and Stormy = Ginger Beer + Dark Rum
Hurricanes = Orange Juice + Pineapple Juice + Dark Rum + Bacardi 151 + Light Rum + Grenadine
Mojitos. (I know it doesn’t fit the theme. But Jay had a taste for them) = Rum + Lime Juice + Simple Syrup + Club Soda + Mint
I actually made my own mint simple syrup. And it really is simple. Boil 1 cup of water with sprigs of mint. Add 1 cup sugar. Reduce heat. Stir constantly for three minutes. Remove from heat. Cool. And strain.
