1 | 2 | NextDrink of the Day: Vodka Stinger 1 Citation Don't have to say much about this one: It's a total classic, and I was so sure I would like it, I went ahead and made a double.The Vodka Stinger, for the uninitiated, is a completely simple but delightful drink -- vodka and creme de menthe. The trick is to get the drink as cold as possible, not a tough feat for me, as I keep the vodka in the freezer and packed the shaker with ice.The cocktail is about as refreshing as one can be. The vodka hits you like liquor should, leaving an impression but n, technorati.com

1 Citation Okay I am going to make this difficult this time around for a change , okay? The answers will be posted later tonight as usual. 1.

Drink of the Day: Alexander's Sister 1 Citation This is almost a perfect drink: cold, creamy, minty. But...It has gin. Normally, that would put it over the top. And maybe with an average gin, it wouldn't be any big deal. But with the Hendrick's I'm currently rocking, the gin stood out quite a bit in this drink, even lingering after the mint.But that's a very minor complaint. Like it's brother, the Brandy Alexander, the Alexander's Sister is a wonderfully decadent drink. Made with gin, creme de menthe, and cream, it comes out of the shaker loo, technorati.com

Happy E-Day! (Expeditus, That Is) 1 Citation Good Heavens! Cupcakes: a Saint's Day treat Potius sero quam numquam . -- Titus Livius, Ab urbe condita Yes, it's Earth Day and no, this post is not about that. Instead, I turn your attention to a day not long past and forgotten only so much as no one really noticed it in the first place: Sunday was St. Expeditus' Day . Valentine and Patrick may get all the mainstream glory and commercial popularity but it's their brother in sainthood, Expeditus,, technorati.com

Drink of the Day: Cognac Menthe Frappe 1 Citation This marks my first drink with cognac, and I'd love to tell you how it was in a cocktail, how it interacted with other ingredients. But unfortunately, my taste buds are in a mint coma.That's because the Cognac Menthe Frappe has just two ingredients, the cognac and creme de menthe, and there's twice as much of the latter as there is the former. So that's all you really taste. Oh, and for good measure, the cocktail is decorated with torn mint leaves atop the glass, giving you an extra scent of min, technorati.com

The cocktail was invented in 1948. Corpse Reviver #1 (a) 30 ml brand, technorati.com

White Chocolate-Creme de Menthe Ice Cream 1 Citation This year I swore up and down I was going to make a real Irish dessert on St. Patrick's Day. Instead, my daughter begged me to make green mint ice cream. I threw in the white chocolate to please me, and the green mint pleased her. My husband was pleasantly surprised how much he liked this ice cream. My one suggestion is to use creme de menthe flavoring *, if possible. (Or a bit of the real stuff , if you have it. I don't.) Peppermint extract would be a decent substitute, but does border, technorati.com

1 Citation The best way to describe this drink wold be "bracing." Whether it's the mint that hits you first, or the lemon juice, it packs a wallop.The Greenback is just three ingredients: gin, creme de menthe, and the aforementioned lemon juice. It's a brilliant bright green in a rocks glass, and a decent combination of tart and sweet.But the combination of mint and lemon juice is mediocre at best. There's just a little too much going on here. But if you need an eye-opener, this might do it.Rating: Three g, technorati.com

Snow day, testing recipes & evening snowmen 1 Citation I finally gave in to the snow today and stayed at home. I had my laptop and one of those security keys that lets you log in to the office network so I could still do my job. I worked so hard today too with no one to talk to. The rest of my group was in the office today so I know they think I'm a Snow Wimp, as I've called them that earlier this week when they stayed at home. I thought I'd be in tomorrow but now heavy snows are forecast so I don't know. (I have the TV on to one of those Open Ac, technorati.com
