Tis the season, nothing but political ads on TV, social media, and radio – btw we strictly ban any political ads from appearing during this show. This is a safe place :-) So this falladay season, why not turn all of that off and listen to The Art Of Drinking instead? In today’s episode we learn about the Ward 8 cocktail, which does have political roots, but we don’t get into any politics – except for Uncle Brad, he has an announcement to make. Stick around for the history and an awesome tip inspired by @missykrissy719.

Turns out, this drink doesn’t suck! Uncle Brad had strong feelings in the past, but now is a big fan, and you will be too. Jules brings a late summer inspired Gimlet. Stick around for the history on the Gimlet – shocker, the British Navy had something to do with it.

The Jungle Bird is a cocktail you need to be familiar with, especially if you struggle with that bottle of Campari that’s staring at you from your bar cart. This tiki drink makes excellent use of our bitter friend in a way that will please even the most hateful of Campari haters – and we feel bad for the haters (please don’t hate). Uncle Brad goes into the surprising origins of the Jungle Bird and, of course, gives us the real deal recipe while Jules hits us with a Kentucky twist. Stick around for the excellent tip inspired by @aberryx

Who doesn’t love ice cream and booze mixed together? I’ll tell ya who, Jules but that’s ok, she has a great recipe that doesn’t use dairy. In this episode we cover the classic Pink Squirrel and Jules’ dairy-free Squirrely Girl. They are nutty and delicious. Uncle Brad gives us the scoop on the history behind the drink and together we tackle Mary Kate Schuster’s question, “What are your favorite drinks/recs for new home cocktail makers to try as they get into cocktails?”
Pink Squirrel – the real way
We use vanilla ice cream here, not heavy cream. When it comes to ice cream, don’t use the yellow stuff, it messes up the color. Use white.
Chill your goblet or hurricane glass
Grab your blender or immersion blender
In your blender or shaker tin add,
Whiz it aournd until it’s smooth
Pour into your chilled goblet or hurricane glass
Garnish with whipped cream, nutmeg, and a cherry
Jules Pink dairy-free squirrely girl version
In your blender or shaker tin add,
Shake for 20 – 30 seconds
Pour into your glass
Garnish with fresh nutmeg on top and a cherry!
