The History of the Old Fashioned Cocktail

Photo by Ferals Studio   To help us kick off cocktail week, we wanted to start with some classics. Including what is considered one of the ultimate cocktail mainstays of all-time. The Old Fashioned.  The Old Fashioned cocktail is a classic cocktail that has been enjoyed for well over a century. It is made with bourbon or rye whiskey, sugar, bitters, and a twist of citrus. The Old Fashioned has…

Benton’s Old Fashioned !

2 oz. bacon-infused bourbon*

0.25 oz. maple syrup

2-3 dashes Angostura Bitters

Add a large piece of ice to a rocks glass, add liquids, and stir for about 10 seconds. Express the oils of an orange peel over the top and place the peel in the drink as a garnish.

*Bacon-infused Bourbon

8 oz. bourbon

0.5 oz. bacon fat

Put two or three strips of bacon in a pan, and heat gently and slowly—you want to make extra sure not to scorch or smoke the fat. When the bacon is almost cooked, pour off the liquid rendered fat into a separate container. 

You need 0.5 oz. (1 tbsp) of fat for every 8 oz. of bourbon, so start with that ratio and scale up if you desire. Combine the two in a non-reactive container and stir. Let sit at room temp for four to 24 hours, then transfer to the freezer until frozen (about 2hrs). Strain the liquid off the now-solid fat through a coffee filter or cheesecloth, and it should be totally clear. 

Since it will change slowly over time, the best practice is to keep the bourbon in the fridge. There’s a non-zero chance it could go rancid (though it’s never happened to me), so try to use it on the quicker side, within a couple weeks.

Crimes Drabble - Trystan x Lilah

Happy Birthday week, Dani!!

Warnings & A/N: No warnings. Lilah belongs to @storyofmychoices. The quote is actually “I said I liked it. I didn’t say I wanted to kiss it.” from In a Lonely Place.

“Ruby, not tonight,” I sigh.

My drink is smoky and the amber color reflects against my hand as I raise it to my lips. I close my eyes and savor the burn that trails down my throat. It’s smoother than my usual. Uncle Tommy left the good stuff at our table.

A birthday gift, for my favorite niece, he had said.

I’m your only niece, I had chuckled.

That’s why you’re my favorite, he had teased back.

Ruby’s playful tone pulls me back to the present.

“I only asked if you had, you know, any plans with someone tonight,” she grinned.

“My plan is to enjoy this bottle in peace and try not to think about the case load waiting on my desk for me tomorrow.”

“But you’d like to have plans with him tonight.”

It’s a knowing statement rather than a question.

“I admit to wanting quiet. And that will only be achieved by keeping him over there with Luke and you quiet.”

I give her a teasing pointed look.

“I have only question,” she waits my reluctant nod before asking. “Will tonight end in a kiss?”

“Ruby!” I groan.

I throw in an eye roll for good measure and but I can’t stop myself from looking over at him.

I try to keep my features schooled as she leans further across the table and just grins her silly grin at me. I seem the look before. I’ve seen the same body language. Hell, I’ve used the same techniques in the interrogation room.

She’s waiting for me to break.

“You do know that my profession, right? You know I can read tones and between the lines? I know all the tricks in that playbook.”

“I don’t know what you mean,” she smirks and keeps her focus on me.

I sit back in my seat and sip my whiskey again and smirk at her over the edge of my glass but not before my eyes dart in his direction again.

“As I suspected,” she chuckles. “You like like him.”

“I said I liked him. I didn’t say I wanted to kiss him.”

Not my finest defense but it will have to do because I’m unable to deny anything as he smiles that infuriating smile and walks over to me.

#it was a quick little gift tonight #i wrote it beside a roaring fire set beneath a vat a syrup bubbling away while sipping on a whiskey maple old fashioned #i hope you are having the best and loveliest of weeks leading up to your birthday #i will drink to you tonight my friend and toss the bundle of dried maple flowers into the fire in your honor tonight #my drabble #i like to live dangerously and do not edit #trystan x lilah #yes i’m quoting more film noir #any excuse to do so and i will take it #we are now discussing our favorite film noir and also detective films #life is good today

so i have a story idea about magical girls who metamorphose at night and turn into mothmen... and they go around saving the world using light-themed powers...

#dandy's doodles #doodles #oc #my oc #i should note how i'm using 'magical girl' as a gender-neutral term #this one here is named robin and he turns into a rosy maple moth. also he is literally me #so basically there isn't that much lore yet. it's kind of just this cute little thing #there's this scouting organization called the aurelians (you know like that old-fashioned term for lepidopterists) #and they chose a few of their most upstanding scouts and gave them these special brooches and flashlights #the brooches golden and shaped like a chrysalis #and each flashlight having a kaleidoscope- like top #and whenever the scouts would shine the light from their flashlights onto their respective brooch (which is in the center of their necktie) #when the moon is out #they would go through this metamorphosis- like magical girl transformation and turn into mothmen #and they could use the flashlight for light-based powers. maybe they can turn into lightsaber things or something #and yeah so they would go around secretly helping the community in the middle of the night #helping cats from trees. finding lost things. cleaning up garbage. y'know #maybe there'll end up being this evil organization who're all butterflies or something but idk #at least for now they're all chill #so yeah :) gay moth people real

Coconut Maple-Nut Cornflake Granola

Want to make your mornings a little more joyous? And your afternoons? And evenings? In other words, pretty much the whole day? Then whip up a batch of this addictively delicious Coconut Maple-Nut Cornflake Granola and watch your spirits soar! Yes, it’s that good!!!

It’s been ages since I’ve made any granola, let alone a new version. It’s one of those things I tend to make regularly for months and then just…don’t. I don’t know why. But last week when my husband was making a shopping list and added granola, I figured he was giving me a subtle hint and then I remembered this recipe that included cornflakes that I’d been wanting to try which sealed the deal and made both of us so happy!

Guys, you are going to absolutely adore this. It comes together in a snap and has so much flavor and texture. The coconut caramelizes as it bakes and the cornflakes add just the right amount of crunch!

Just look at those clusters!

And we haven’t even talked about how divine it makes your kitchen smell as it bakes!

It’s wonderful on yogurt or ice cream or just by the handful.

It’s all about the little things, right?!!

Coconut Maple-Nut Cornflake Granola

Makes about 8 cups

Prep Time: 7-8 minutes; Bake Time: 45-50 minutes

Ingredients

3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)

1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut chips

1 ½ cups mix of pecans, walnuts and almonds, roughly chopped

1 cup cornflakes

¼ cup vegetable oil (you could use same amount of melted butter or olive oil)

⅓ cup maple syrup

¼ cup light brown sugar

1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt

The Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 300ºF.

2. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, coconut, nuts and cornflakes. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, maple syrup, brown sugar and salt. Pour over the oat mixture and toss well to coat. Scrape out the mixture onto a large rimmed baking sheet and spread into an even layer.

3. Bake for 45-50 minutes without stirring until the granola is deeply browned. Remove and let cool on the baking sheet. Then use a metal spatula to help break apart the granola into clumps. Transfer to airtight containers and store at room temperature for up to 2 months.

Enjoy!

Note: Recipe adapted from Ready, Set, Cook by Dawn Perry. I tinkered a bit as always!

how to make pancakes more filling and taste better

so pancakes are actually way way easier than everyone thinks they are and they are very very easy to change up as long as you know how to

the things that you don't fuck with are the amount of flour, oil, egg, milk and baking powder/soda. as long as you stick to that on any recipe you can change pretty much anything else or substitute.

generally recipes are 1 egg to 1 cup of flour. a 1 cup flour 1 egg recipe usually serves 2 and you can double the recipe for 4, etc.

you can also substitute up to half of the four in a recipe for whole wheat flour without changing the leavening measurements. you can do the same for adding in protein powder, just adjust the sugar accordingly if its sweetened protein powder.

so, this is my favorite basic buttermilk pancake recipe, it makes about 10 pancakes:

1 1/4 cups flour 1/2 cup old fashioned oats 1-1 1/2 tbsp some kind of sweetener (brown/white sugar or maple syrup/agave syrup all work well but there's other options) 1/2 tsp baking soda 1 egg 1 1/4 cup buttermilk 1 tbsp oil of choice (butter or coconut oil generally) 1/2 tsp salt

this is the bones of the recipe. the sweetener is adjustable based on how sweet you like your pancakes but the rest of it should all stay the same. double this if you want to make pancakes to serve 4 people (about 20 pancakes)

to this, i add:

as much vanilla extract as my heart desires (within reason, i see you tumblr) some cinnamon/pumpkin pie spice/whatever you want lemon zest from 1 lemon (or orange zest) blueberries fresh or frozen (but you can use any mix in like bananas or nuts or whatever)

one very important note: you don't need buttermilk to make this recipe. you can substitute buttermilk by combining 1 teaspoon of lemon juice or white vinegar for every 1 cup of milk (its supposed to be regular milk but you can use plant or nut milk too) and letting it stand for 10 minutes.

the instructions:

zest your citrus and add it to your sugar. mush it together until you get a paste or sorts. add to that your oats, vanilla and buttermilk and stir them together. let the oats soak in the mixture for 10 minutes.

combine your flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon or spices.

after your oats are done soaking add in the oil and the egg (make sure the egg is beaten well)

add the wet into the dry and combine. make sure that all the flour is mixed in. there will be lumps. we want the lumps. then add your mix ins.

grease a pan. this can be a regular frying pan an electric griddle or a stovetop griddle. let the oil sit on the pan on medium heat for a few minutes or until you throw a few water drops on the pan and they crackle and jump.

use a 1/3 measuring cup and scoop your batter onto the pan, space them out a little but not ridiculously. flip them with a plastic spatula (ideal) 2-3 times or until they're fully cooked. (you tell if they're cooked if there's no wet batter on the sides)

voila. pancakes.

use this recipe or use the bare bones version to make your own thing.

happy pancake making.

Mad Spring - sour gummies, you feral little goblin. Tangfastics. Airheads. Sour Patch Kids. Like High Summer, you choose fruit-flavored gummy sweets, but you pick ones coated in Pain Sugar. It isn’t enough to just get sugar: you’re chasing a different Sensory Experience (TM) than the rest. And that’s great.

Warm Spring - white chocolate, ruby chocolate, pastel mint drops, cotton candy, bubblegum. Marshmallows. Sweet, creamy, usually pastel. You have no particular objection to floral tastes like lavender and rose. You may be able to appreciate Turkish Delight.

Midsummer - tropical fruits: chewy and slightly creamy in pastel colors. Starburst/Opal Fruit, Creamsicles/Solero. Maoam strips. Cream sodas. Skittles, despite being jewel-toned, are in this season. Coconut and pineapple flavors go here. Also the home of chalky-type sweets like Love Hearts/candy hearts, smarties (usa) and You may be also able to appreciate Turkish Delight.

High Summer - Gummy bears and chewy, jellyish, jammy, gummy, springy in bright jewel tones. Gummy worms and jelly snakes, jelly babies, jelly beans, Haribo. Clearer and gummier than Midsummer.

Autumn Night - darker and more complex sweetness, often including an element of burning or alcohol, or another challenge. Cherry cordials, marzipan, champagne truffles. Also home of burnt-sugar tastes: maple candy, bonfire toffee, candy corn. Also home of matcha; red liquorice; red bean paste. When people bring you sweets from other countries, they’ll choose unusual local delicacies. You almost certainly were fascinated as a kid by lollipops at the science museum sold with real bugs in them.

Autumn Salt - peanut butter and peanut brittle, salted caramel, toffee, butterscotch. Toffee popcorn, Reese’s Peanut Butter cups, Snickers, Daim. If nobody has any nuts, you’ll choose chocolate with nuts, crisp or crunch over other things. Sweet just isn’t enough.

Winter Spice - herbal, spicy and medicinal sweets, usually hard old-fashioned sweets. Red-hots, burning cinnamon, chilli - eucalyptus, root beer, menthol; sarsaparilla. Hard candy, generally: old fashioned ‘boiled sweets,’ things that look gorgeous in glass jars. Parma violets. Fisherman’s Friends. You’re the only person who would eat a gingerbread house after decorating it. You’re also possibly a ghost, or used to be a Mad Spring. It’s also about the SENSATION.

Midwinter - dark black Licorice. Salty? Sweet? saltlakrids? Allsorts? Australian? You might like other things too, but when your loved ones are in another country, they go to the licorice aisle and get you the weirdest local variant they can find.

Long Winter - true chocolate, basic chocolate stuff: M&Ms. Dairy Milk. Hershey’s Kiss. But also home of fudgy tastes and sugar-on-sugar in a long slow sauce. Marshmallow, Handmade fudge, Phish Food ice cream.

Cool Winter - naturally, the homebase of minty tastes. peppermint wheels, York’s Peppermint Patties, After Eights. Also orange - chocolate orange - and, oddly, pixie sticks/sherbet and other sweet things that involve eating simple flavored sugar.
