Bartending does not come naturally for me. I’ll admit it, my coworkers laugh at my expense often. So here are three drinks that even a rookie can muster up at home!
1. Pistachio Shot:
- Baileys
- Amaretto
- Blue Curacao
Equal parts chilled, shaken, and strained
2. Blue Long Island
Pour Over Ice:
- Half Ounce Tequila
- Half Ounce Gin
- Half Ounce Vodka
- Half Ounce White Rum
Top off with Sour Mix
Splash of Blue Curacao
Garnish with a slice of Lemon and or a Maraschino Cherry
3. Black Velvet: Half Guinness Stout & Half Magners Cider
Take a pint glass pour halfway with hard cider and let it settle. Put an upside down spoon over the glass and carefully pour your Guinness over the spoon so it doesn’t “crash” into the cider and blend.
Others Mixed Draughts:
Black & Blue (Guinness & Blue Moon)
Black & Tan (Guinness & Stella)
Black & Brown (Guinness & It’s Not Your Father’s Root Beer)
