I'm Just Here for the Drinks
We talk to Sother Teague about his new book I'm Just Here for the Drinks.
Sother Teague's first book is informative, entertaining and filled with cocktail recipes. We catch up with him at his book release party at Boilermaker Bar at 1st Avenue and 1st Street.
Brian also attended a seminar presented by Marie Brizard and at Employees Only NY and competed in a cocktail competition.
Cocktail of the Week:
Martini
The Classic Martini is made with 1 part dry vermouth and 2 parts Gin. It is stirred, not shaken. The classic garnish is olives. Superstition says it should be an ODD number of olives - an even number is bad luck. James Bond orders a "Vodka Martini, shaken not stirred", because that is the exception to the rule. If he just ordered a "Martini" it would be made with Gin and stirred, because that is the classic recipe.
Try a great variation on a Martini - 1 part Dry Vermouth, 2 parts Gin a dash of Orange Bitters. Garnish with an Orange Twist.
Be sure to use fresh vermouth.
Vermouth is aromitized wine and it goes bad after awhile. Keep it in the cooler. The VacuVin wine stopper system will help keep it fresh for longer.
