Boozy McGuzzles

I need to make a post about my experience at the Manhattan Cocktail Classic, but that requires me getting at least one photo off my camera and I am super lazy. So until I stop being so lazy, a cocktail recipe!

I promised there would be cocktail recipes for the vanilla-ginger rum, and I was not a liar. I just had to take some extra time for tasting, and an even longer time because I couldn’t think of names for the cocktails, which is like the most important thing! Well, maybe not most important.

First, the cocktail:

Porcupine Racetrack

Ingredients:
2 oz vanilla-ginger rum
champagne
4-5 dashes of orange bitters

Put the rum in a glass! Top with champagne! Dash some orange bitters on there! You have yourself a drink.

And why did I call it what I did? Because I asked a friend, “What should I call this drink?” And she answered, “PORCUPINE RACETRACK,” because that is what she answers almost every question with. And the more I thought about it, the more I liked it; the drink is a little prickly and easy to drink very quickly. It is perhaps what the posh porcupine racetrack goers might consume! Also, this should be known, I am a very silly person.

Now, I promise not to name the next cocktail I come up with the “Barry and Levon”.
