Re: New Year's Eve Going Tiki at My Place This Year

Post by Patchez »

ALMOND ORGEAT
Yields 1.25 cups
INGREDIENTS:
• 2 cups Blanched almonds (If prefer to use bitter almonds, find them online or at a Mediterranean grocery store)
• 1.5 cups Sugar
• 1.25 cups Water
• .5 teaspoon Orange flower water
• 1 oz Brandy
PREPARATION:
Pulse almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Combine the sugar and water in a pot over medium heat and stir until sugar dissolves completely. Boil the syrup for three minutes, then add in the ground almonds. Turn the heat down to low and simmer for another three minutes, then slowly increase the temperature to medium high. Just before it starts to boil, remove it from the heat and cover with a lid.
Allow the covered nut mixture to infuse for at least 3 hours or up to 8 hours. Then, strain it through two layers of cheesecloth, discarding the ground almonds for another use. Stir the orange flower water and brandy into the nutty syrup. Use a small funnel to portion the orgeat into bottles or a jar. Store in refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Maybe we can arrange a trans-skype portal between the tiki dimensions?
This we shall do. Though Connie may have convinced me to switch to Google Hangouts for video chat. It ran flawlessly with three of us on it. I didn't have to use my headphones or mic. No video glitching. Much better format.

You allowed Connie to convince you of something? That's like letting Trump watch your grandkids.

Happy Year of the Mad Dog to all!

Does it matter for which hour the bell tolls? This year, I've decided to avoid the rush and get drunk at an earlier, quieter hour. The bartender seems to appreciate the lull before the storm as well. Every pour of Weller 107 neat gets just a little taller and tastes a little sweeter.

Yep. That's the one thing I hate about benders - you just downed your 8th drink and you notice you ain't even buzzed yet.

2020: welcome to the future. Same as it ever was. Except for the present and past. And the future.
