The Art of Drinking with Join Jules and Your Favorite Uncle

Ep. 88: The drink that defeated Rommel – The Suffering Bastard


Listen Later

If drinks were awarded combat medals, the Suffering Bastard would be leading the charge like a drunken hero in a bar fight. In today’s episode, Uncle Brad is our cocktail sergeant, teaching us how to mix this valiant, tiki-style concoction while regaling us with its dramatic backstory. Meanwhile, Jules, channeling her inner Halloween spirit, unveils the Shrunken Skull. Seriously, with names like these, how could they NOT be on your Halloween cocktail menu? I mean, if you serve these at your party, you’re basically guaranteeing a ghostly good time! And don’t wander off just yet! We’ve got tips on how to achieve that frothy head on your Espresso Martini. Wait... why are we talking about Espresso Martinis in a tiki drink episode? Your guess is as good as mine! But hey, Jules makes the rules around here, and as @sarah.brown876 rightly points out, it’s a perfectly valid question—though I suspect she might be just as confused as we are. So grab your shakers and let’s dive into this delightful chaos! 

 

TIP: How to get that frothy head on your Espresso Martini. Just let it go, we can talk about this even though we are not making espresso martini’s. Thanks @sarah.brown876
