Show Notes
We need a crash cart, stat! Our doctors diagnose the damage after the Mets trucking. Ben says the patient is a goner, Matthew thinks Ben's an idiot, only time will tell who's right. Oh, and Lou Seal gets upstaged by the Crazy Crab.
Our new cocktail podcast, The Perfect Sip, is on hiatus but new episodes are in production. (Yeah, it's taking a long time ... life, you know?) If you haven't listened yet, you can catch up here: https://the-perfect-sip.captivate.fm/listen.
Speaking of cocktails, today Ben is drinking Strawberry Fields Forever while Matthew is drinking a Brown Derby. Recipes below.
Strawberry Fields Forever
- 2 oz Strawberry Infused Vodka
- 1/2 oz Simple Syrup
- 3-4 oz Club Soda
- 1 Strawberry for Garnish
- To make the strawberry infused vodka, take a large heap of strawberry tops (leaves and all) or whole strawberries and add to 12 oz of vodka and allow to infuse overnight. Then add vodka and simple syrup to a highball glass with ice. Top with club soda and garnish with strawberry.
Brown Derby
- 2 oz high-rye bourbon (like Old Forester, Four Roses Single Barrel, or Woodford Reserve)
- 1 oz fresh pink grapefruit juice
- ¾ oz rich honey syrup (2:1 honey to water)
- 1 dash orange bitters (optional, but highly recommended)
- Grapefruit twist or expressed oils for garnish
- Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake hard for 12–15 seconds. Fine strain into a chilled coupe. Express a grapefruit twist over the top and drop it in.
