Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 27, 2024 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Entwistle was propagating Gorey-esque Dark Humour before 'Paint It Black' - let alone thedoors. Tho Lennon had 'Baby's In Black'... Aside from revolutionizing Rawk Bass (with McCartney, if differently). & being one of those Bassists with actual training & other Instruments under his wing...

Tardy to the Party, our go-to delicious cocktail is this damn near perfect rendition of the Manhattan:

1.5 oz Carpano Antica vermouth
5 oz Rittenhouse rye
1 good bottle-dash (probably 2 official measured dashes) Angostura bitters

stir with ice (or swirl with ice in the cocktail shaker without shaking)

split between two freezer-chilled coupes, with one Luxardo marasca cherry in each.

Sip, enjoy, feel stress melt away.

If people crave something brownish but with citrus... we've become fond of the Paper Plane:

Not only is it darned tasty, but as a mixer of drinks I do love me an equal-parts cocktail (especially if there's fresh-squeezed juice involved)!

You just squeeze your (lemons in this case), see how much juice they yielded, and then use that same amount of the other components! No bar arithmetic required.

We've moved back from stocking Aperol to stocking Campari in our bar.

I can see the rationale for that choice.

We've recently been doing more things which call for Aperol than for Campari, and K's always been doubtful about Campari's signature bitter note; that flavor is farther down in the mix with Aperol.
