Science Of Drink

It is one of modern fetish. My favorite recipe is not so simple as original (or common).

Tequila Sunrise

7 ml grenadine
7 ml creme de cassis
splash soda
fill the orange juice
20 ml reposado tequila
Shake grenadine, creme de cassis, soda and strain in icefilled collins glass. Add ice and orange juice, float tequila.

DOOLEY`S is a very delicious toffee cream liqueur. Today I prepare one of my favorite after dinner cocktail with this liqueur.

I am appreciate Darcy for recipe.

Milky Way Martini 

40 ml Dooley’s Toffee Liqueur
20 ml chocolate liqueur
10 ml vodka
Shake. Cocktail glass with a maraschino cherry on the rim.

It is  easy way to be a “cool” barman (in some womans eyes) :)

The Martini, undoubtedly, is a GREATEST drink. In my TOP Martini has 1st place. Today I decide to prepare some curious thing as Dirty Martini.

Dirty Martini

60 ml gin
9 ml dry vermouth
2 olive juice (I use liquid from can with olives)
Stir. Frosted cocktail glass, sprayed with lemon zest, garnish with olives.

It is NO dry (of course!), but so delicious…

Manhattan is one of my favorite cocktail. Today we taste one of many variations of Manhattan.

Special Manhattan Cocktail

50 ml canadian whisky
20 ml sweet vermouth
1 tsp Campari
Stir with ice. Cocktail glass, garnish with a maraschino cherry.

Great version of great cocktail.

Sambuca is one of my favorite liqueur. First – I like sweet anise flavor and taste of it. Second I like very much to ignite sambuca on saturday night and go to the club. I use in practice my own method of flaming sambuca which is so similar to traditional con mosca.

Flaming Sambuca. Step 1. Equipment.

Prepare some equipment, which you can see on foto. You need so big and thick-walled snifter, old-fashioned or rocks glass, jigger, bar-spoon, napkin, straw, matches.

Flaming Sambuca. Step 2.

Put 3/4 – 1 oz (20 – 30 ml) of sambuca in the snifter and add 1 dash of coffee liqueur in old-fashioned glass (I use Kahlua). If you want to drink flaming sambuca in traditional con mosca way, omit the coffee liqueur and put three coffee beans (which symbolise health, wealth and good luck) into a snifter. Use good sambuca for good results.

Flaming Sambuca. Step 3. Flame the night.

Rotate snifter some times and set on the fire. Continue to rotate snifter. Please operate VERY carefully.

Flaming Sambuca. Step 4. Fire show.

Pour the flame in old-fashioned glass.

I think it is beautiful.

Flaming Sambuca. Step 5. Blow out.

Extinguish a fire in this way:

Flaming Sambuca. Step 5. Drinking of flamed sambuca.

Place snifter over napkin with a straw in pictured way:

Drink a hot sambuca (warning! very, very hot sambuca may cause of burn! sip responsibly) and inhalate from a snifter. Enjoy!
