Two new drink recipes

[kitchen_kink]

Au Courant

3 parts vodka
1/2 part Rose's lime
1 part Triple Sec
5-6 parts blackcurrant juice, to taste

Put all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and serve up in a martini glass.


Atalanta

3 parts Jack Daniels
1 part Goldschlager
4 parts apple cider

Same as above directions.


Both recipes may, of course, be adjusted for taste and alcohol content, though the Rose's lime amount in the first is the most that is advised if you wish to taste the blackcurrant.


(Bonus for person who can tell me why the second drink is called an "Atalanta.")

That's awesome!

But wrong.

:) Though clearly you know the myth, so probably in some subtextual way, you're right.

Tangentally: I will be dinnerizing at Casa Spot on the evening of the 26th. You and the Ruskie are warmly invited to join.

(At least, I think you are. If you got into a fight with Spot, Amanda, or Joe P, let me know. :)

I think we're all cool, unless I was so wasted at the wedding I don't remember my exceedingly bad behavior.

Well, you did dance me about so fast I nearly had a heartattack...but that was my fault for asking you to salsa to "Late in the Evening..."

We'll see if we can make it; thanks! We'll be traveling from New Jersey back to MA that day, so it's a long shot, but thanks for the invite!
