Thirsty now!

I've talked (and talked) about the best cocktail I've ever had in this blog before. It's an Old Fashioned made with bacon-infused bourbon and I've enjoyed it at one of my favorite haunts in NYC, a neo-speakeasy called PDT (Please Don't Tell). I've had it a few times now and it only tastes better with each successive order.

Well the shiny, happy people over at PDT agree that it is the singular greatest cocktail in the history of cocktails and they don't mind sharing their secrets with the world.

Lo and behold...



Happy Friday, y'all!!!

Send me over a case or two so I can do a proper taste test.

Orange smell with bacon taste? I don't know how I would react to that.

Steph - I'm sorry for your loss. :)

JB - Imagine trying this with Scotch? Shudders!

OG - or you can infuse vodka with bacon and make a bloody mary with a slice of bacon in it. That'll work in a pinch.

Ookami - I don't know how you would react either. Me? Pure joy.

Slyde said...

Verdant Earl said...

Heff - I actually thought it was gonna be much harder to infuse the bourbon. Pretty easy actually.

Slyde - You da man!
