Cocktail of the Week:


I was inspired by a post on Natalie’s Beautiful Booze web site. She did a Burnt Citrus Margarita.


I had a bag of Mandarin Oranges so I thought I’d grill a couple of those and juice them. I just cut them in half and sprinkled a little turbinado sugar and grilled them on the BBQ for a few minutes. I also made some Mandarin Orange round slices for garnish and grilled them as well.


Grilled Mandarin Margarita:


  • 2 oz Reposado Tequila

  • 1/2 oz Grand Marnier

  • 1 oz Grilled Mandarin Orange Juice

  • 1 oz of freshly squeezed lime juice.

  • 1/2 oz Simple Syrup

  • 2 Dashes Orange Bitters

  • Black Lava Sea Salt for rimming glasses

  • Grilled Mandarin Orange Round for garnish

    Rim outside of glasses with Sea Salt, leaving a portion of the glass unrimmed. Shake all liquid ingredients with ice. Add fresh ice to rimmed glasses. Strain drink into prepared glasses. Garnish with Orange Round.


Book of the Week:


Drinking Distilled – A User’s Manual by Jeffrey Morgenthaler.


Mr. Morgenthaler’s new book Drinking Distilled – A User’s Manual is, as it says in the title it’s a USER’S Manual. It’s mostly about how to drink like a grown up. There are sections on what to drink when, and for what occasions, how to act in a bar, (should you use your phone at a bar, is it ok send someone a drink at a bar?)


You may have heard me recommend his first book The Bar Book. It is the first book I recommend when someone asks me for a “learn how to Bartender book”. Not just recipes – it’s a manual of how to Bartend.
