FIREWHISKEY
Under the age of seventeen, young witches and wizards are not permitted to consume Firewhiskey. The drink that provides a burning sensation along with a sense of courage is very strong and only recommended for those of age, in the wizarding world. This recipe for firewhiskey surely gives an overwhelming, but satisfying version of our favorite Firewhiskey brands, Odgen’s Old Firewhiskey and Blishen’s Firewhiskey.
Ingredients
- 1 liter ginger ale
- 1 liter of 7-Up (lemon/lime soda)
- handful of Red Hots or cinnamon candy
- cinnamon sticks
- Cinnamon schnapps or Goldschläger (alcoholic version)
Directions:
Step 1: In a pitcher, mix the ginger ale and 7-up soda.
Step 2: Add to the ginger/soda mixture, the Red Hots and cinnamon sticks, stirring well. (allowing the Red Hots to dissolve)
Step 3: For the desired amount of tanginess add more or less Red hots and cinnamon sticks.
Step 4: Let steep for 3-4 hours, refrigerated - Serve cold. (over ice, if desired)
Step 5: ENJOY!I need to throw a party just so I can make and serve this. Super Bowl, maybe? A friend was saying how when you host a Super Bowl party you end up watching about 5% of the game, which is perfect for me. The lack of seating in my apartment is a problem, though.
Avocado Eggs (recipe by Marina)
Ingredients:
- 2 large avocados
- 4 small/medium eggs
- salt and pepper
- olive oil
To make:
- Cut ends off of avocados and put aside for guacamole. Cut two thick slices of avocado around the pit. Discard pit without breaking the avocado slices.
- Cut around the hole of the avocado slice to make it a bit bigger. Put unused avocado bits into the guacamole bowl.
- In heated pan, add a couple tablespoons of olive oil and heat on medium-high.
- Place avocados in oil.
- Crack eggs into the avocado slices in the pan. If there is too much egg white and the eggs won’t fit in the hole, carefully crack the eggs so that the two halves of the shell are in tact and, over a bowl, transfer from one half to the other while excess egg white drips out. Be careful not to break the yolk with the egg shells!
- Cook avocado eggs in the pan for a few minutes on each side. Season each side with salt and pepper.
- Eat!
This recipe is a lot like making egg-in-a-hole or miner’s eggs. Very good for a friend’s brunch and super impressive!
