Any unusual recipes to share or drinks to recommend?
To get started:
The Smoking Gun
2oz Laphroaig or other Islay scotch
3/4 teaspoon fernet branca
1/2 tsp brown sugar syrup
2 shakes bourbon barrel bitters
Stir with ice, strain into chilled glass
I know, what's better than straight up Laphroaig? But sometimes nothing hits the spot like this. Either as an apertif before dinner, or as a digestive that bucks you up after too big of a great meal, this is the stuff!
The brown sugar syrup is 2 parts brown sugar, 1 part water, boil two minutes. Add a shot of dark rum after it cools and store in fridge.
