Himself, a.k.a. Hungry Passport’s husband, a.k.a. Andrew Penn Romine is taking on a new challenge in his blog. Each Friday he plans to write about a different cocktail–not your run-o-the-mill stuff (and no, rum & Coke is NOT a cocktail. Neither is 7 & 7. Neither is anything made with jug mix–all of which are liquid versions of fast food). It’s about hearkening back to the classics, the first entry being the cognac sazerac. I’ll let him fill you in on the details. So please visit Ink Gorilla to find out what you should be mixing and drinking each weekend.
And if you’re encouraged to start some serious cocktail mixing beyond each Friday’s offering, I suggest you pick up a copy of Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails, by Ted Haigh, a.k.a. Dr. Cocktail. It’s history in a glass, tasty tasty history.
Cheers!
