Happy Valentine's Day - what will you drink this holiday?


178306Nicki Spear

Looking for everyone's most desired cocktail for V-Day.  This holiday is despised by some and adored by some, so no matter your situation for today, what drink will best suit your mood?  For me, it's champagne with a berry soaked at the bottom of the flute for an extra treat when the drink is complete.  Now that is simple and lip smacking good!

  • For me, this is a good day for a treat no matter the mood, so I'm having some rare Pappy Van Winkle 13 Yr rye. 

    But my friend Abigail Giullo made up a great cocktail called "Grounds for Divorce" for the lovelorn:

     

    Grounds for Divorce
    1/2 oz Campari
    1/2 oz sweet vermouth
    1/2 oz Amaro (choose your poison)
    2 oz Whiskey, American Style
     
    She had a lot of fun with which Amari to use: "The recipe calls for Amaro so here is where you can get really creative, like deciding what on grounds you are actually going to file for.  Adultery? Fernet Branca.  Abandonment? Amaro Nonnio.  Indifference? Averna.  Cruel and unusual punishment? Amaro dell'Erborista.  Easy as Newt wives 1, 2, 3."

  • Pappy Van Winkle is certainly a treat; good for you!  The "Grounds for Divorce" recipe is hilarious - very clever!
