The (Original) Hurricane Cocktail. May 08, 2010. The legendary Pat O’Brien’s Bar in the French Quarter, New Orleans. Opened its doors on December 3, 1933, two days before the end of Prohibition (well, ya had to have a coupla days to get ready). Their solution — create a drink to use up all this rum. After some tinkering they wound up with a powerful mixture of rum, passion fruit syrup and fresh lemon juice and created a taste sensation. Article on the history of the place. Research for this post resulted...

Gin and Fresh Tonics | Tasty Libations
http://tastylibations.com/2009/06/gin-and-fresh-tonics
A spirits and cocktail blog. Gin and Fresh Tonics. Inspired by an old Alcademics. Post and some recent warm weather, I set about perfecting a recipe for a gin and tonic that uses fresh cinchona bark and fruit juice, rather than tonic water. 1/8 tsp finely powdered cinchona bark. 1 1/2 dry gin (Beefeater, Junipero recommended). Mix these two and wait at least 2 minutes, but not more than 5. 1/2 oz fresh lime juice. 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice. 1 dash Angostura bitters (optional). The Drink with No Name.

Newer posts →. January 19, 2009. With the reintroduction of absinthe to the American market, there has been a veritable torrent of articles about absinthe.

Or Roman wormwood), does not contain absinthins in ...

Home Macerated Gin – Part 1. March 31, 2009. As part of the Mixoloseum’s Beefeater series, I was inspired to try and recreate it at home. I had been wanting to try a home-steeped gin of the sort I’d been reading about on the blogs. 350 ml 47% alcohol. 1 Tbsp crushed juniper (purple). 1/2 tsp crushed coriander. 1/2 tsp dried angelica root. 1/4 tsp licorice root. 1″ stick of cassia (‘regular’ cinnamon). 1 tsp lemon peel (fresh zest). Soak juniper for 24 hours, rest of botanicals for 9 hours. Fine strain.
