Cocktail for a Rainy Day

Just what you need on a dreary Vancouver day to warm you up and get you giggling.

Amontillado Sherry Hot Toddy
Just what you need on a dreary Vancouver day to warm you up and get you giggling. I created this for the Down the Rabbit Hole – Alice in Wonderland pop-up restaurant last year. It’s all about the Amontillado, yummmmmmy!

Serves 4

Bring to a boil…
2 Lemons juiced
1 Lemon rind zested
Cayenne – pinch
1/4 c Sugar – add a little more or less depending on how sweet you like it

Reduce heat to a simmer and add the booze…
2 shots Alvear Amontillado Sherry
2 shots Ballentine’s Whiskey

Turn element off and serve in classy tea cups. Add a tarragon leaf – one in each cup.

We’re running a cocktail making event at a secret underground bar in a few weeks – Pearls & Cocktails
