    Anti-tryptophan Cocktail

    Prep: Make a pot of strong black coffee. While it’s still hot, stir in 1 tablespoon raw sugar per 8 ounces of coffee. Place in the fridge.

    To Serve (per person): Combine in shaker 2 oz. coffee, 1.5 oz. dark rum, such as Gosling’s, and .5 oz. half-and-half, milk, or more rum, depending on level of turkey haze that needs combating.

    Fill with ice, shake for at least 10 seconds, and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Float a couple of espresso beans on top.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    The Cocktail Renaissance

    Robert Messenger writes about the craft of cocktails in The Weekly Standard:

    An Old-Fashioned is a sugar cube wetted down with two to three large dashes of Angostura bitters and crushed until no trace of the crystals remains. Add some water—not much, the amount depends on the quality of your brown—two ounces of excellent rye whiskey (or bourbon, of course), and three cubes of ice. Stir and let it sit for a moment while you slice a nice stripe of lemon peel—all peel, none of the white pith—to squeeze over. (You’ll see the slick of citrus oil as you raise the glass for your first sip.) It’s perfection incarnate. Yet if you order one in that random bar, the likelihood is that you’ll be brought something involving simple syrup, club soda, maraschino cherries, orange slices, too much ice, and good god knows what else.
