Metaphysical Martini

Buckle Up, Buttercups! It's time to fly the flag.

 

Hello Everyone!  I'm Ani Avedissian.  Welcome to Metaphysical Martini.  3 parts spirit.  1 part rational mind.  Add 2 drops of optimism.  Give it all good, hard shake and pour.

 

Dress it with the olives of grace and empathy.  Sit back, sip slowly and contemplate the wonder of cosmic co-creation. 

 

Join me, Ani Avedissian, to find out what's true...what's woo...and what gets flushed down the loo in today's poorly educated, highly opinionated, dysfunctional little world.

 

Our goal is to "Let the Spirit Inhabit the Human," but be warned - this show is politically incorrect because we do not wish to erode our intellect.  If you are easily offended, this show is not for you.  If, on the other hand, you are a sovereign soul with a sense of humor and capacity for objectivity, then welcome aboard!

 

TODAY'S REAL LIFE COCKTAIL:

 

Ani's P and J

 

This one is easy. 

Take a chilled beer glass.

Add half a shot of Jim Beam Bourbon.

Top up with a pint of cold Pub beer.

 

Enjoy!

Hey Peeps!  

I make podcasts and videos on my own dime to promote social awareness, to encourage We the Peeps to share ideas and opinions.  Without open, civil discussion, we cannot build a better world. Unless we are willing to entertain alternative points of view and have the guts to change our minds when presented with new information, we cannot enter the new golden age of reason. We need space to share, to declare and above all, we need to relearn the importance of discussion for the sake of evolution, not for the sake of winning an argument.

TODAY'S REAL LIFE COCKTAIL:

 

Jean Harlow

 

2 ounces Light Rum

2 ounces Sweet Vermouth

Lemon Twist Dressing

 

Pour rum and vermouth into a shaker with cracked ice. Shake it up. Pour into martini glass, dress with a twist.

This is essentially a Sweet Rum Martini. I don't recommend using dry vermouth. It needs a sweet touch but as with any Martini, adjust to taste. I made another one after the show ( a smaller one) and added two drops of Angostura Bitters. It gave it a little more depth.

 

Enjoy!
