Cocktail Recipes To Beat The Cold
Make no bones about it: it is very, very cold out for a good percentage of the nation. The high for today in my neck of the woods is 9 degrees Fahrenheit with a wind chill of -7, and that was at 10am this morning. If you’re in the same situation, here’s a few quick and easy recipes to try for yourself and stay warm!
Vortex Coffee
2 oz. Sobieski Vanilla Vodka (note: I just used regular old vodka and put a bit of vanilla bean extract in)
1 oz. Irish cream liqueur
2 oz. hot coffee
Whipped cream
Add all ingredients to a mug and top with whipped cream.
ICE-Presso
1½ oz. Sobieski Espresso Vodka
2 oz. creamer
1 ½ oz. Marie Brizard Chocolat Royal (note: any chocolate liqueur will do)
Serve over ice and serve in a tall glass.
The recipe supplied for this also suggested for fun using snow in lieu of serving over ice. I’d like to take a second to advise caution with this method, especially if you live with dogs or in wooded areas. No need to get any extra additional surprises this way.
Hot CAMUS-Late
1 ½ oz. CAMUS VS Elegance Cognac
3 oz. hot chocolate
2 oz. milk
½ oz. heavy cream
1 tsp. maple syrup
Add all ingredients to a mug and stir.
Hot-Tea Toddy
1 oz. CAMUS VS Elegance Cognac
4 oz. hot tea
1 tbsp. honey
Lemon slice for garnish
Add all ingredients to a mug and stir. Add a lemon slice and serve.
