Hey, all you darlings out there,
Every wednesday I shall be blogging a classic cocktail recipe that you can run out, grab what you need for the drink and every TIPSY TUESDAY join us in the group, The Sippy Soiree! Along with the drink,
I will post a classic B&W movie that the drink is featured in. If you want, make it an even better Tipsy Tuesday and rent the movie!
For reference, I will be using the book, "Hollywood Cocktails" by Tobias Steed.
The recipes in the book, which is from Britain(!), call for single shots being 25ml and a double is 50ml. A dash is just that - a dash, and a large dash is about twice of that. If the cocktail is too sweet or strong for your personal taste, well, just alter it a bit. Want to make your cocktail the "Hollywood way"? Have alot of ice on hand, and make your ice with mineral/spring water rather than tap. You can also frost your glasses before-hand by leaving them in the fridge for an hour.
Wether your choice be shaken or stirred, don't over-mix and over-do it, you just want to get it cold. You don't want to end up with a slush!
I hope you have fun, have a nice little glass, and learn something along the way, from reading this blog!
Here's to Tipsy Tuesdays from now on!
