Hey, It's after 5 o'clock...
Shindig
1-1/2 oz. peppermint schnapps
2-1/2 oz. orange juice
Shake with a glassful of broken ice and pour unstrained into an old-fashioned glass. Garnish with a slice of orange and a cherry, and serve.
I omitted the garnishes du to not having them. Also, the only measurer I could find was a 1/4 cup (2oz.) measuring cup, so my measuring was approximated. And I was using my uncle's cheap schnapps. Good though.
I also tried, but did not care for:
Mint Chip
1-1/2 oz. peppermint schnapps
1-1/2 oz. coffee liqueur
Stir.
This might have been two strong after two months without alcohol. Or it might have been the low-quality booze. In any case, I didn't like this one.
More recipes to come perhaps some day. Not for a long time though. I don't expect my cousin would even let me make homemade booze, not with her boys living there.
