Cocktail of the month.

Hello everyone, hope you all had an exceptional weekend. I sure did, Got to work, got off early on Sunday, and attended a close friends birthday party, Happy birthday Vanny. Oh and the Saints won so WHO DAT!.
So this foggy morning on my way to school, I was reading my weekend San Francisco Chronicle. I usually tend to read the top stories, funnies, Wine and food section, and the style section. In that order too. Well I happened to find a great section dealing with why people go to bars? Being a bartender I asked my self the same question; my patrons come here to spend a mellow afternoon, talk to old friends, exchange ideas, watch the game, chat with me, use the wi-fi. There could be many more reasons which still do not come to mind. The funny thing is that the writer of the article came to the conclusion " People go to bars because there's a chance that magic could happen" Scot I thought about this quote for the rest of my train ride. Magic? The magic is the concoction which I deliver? The people you meet? The electricity? A one night stand? who knows. all I know is that with every cocktail a crated bartender, which I hope to become is the elixir to peoples magic. The Chronicle came out with this fabulous cocktail from Slovakia.

The Winston Whisky Cocktail.

This cocktail seems to be made for me, I am a fan of Bourbons, Whiskey's, and scotch. There is nothing like tasting the wood elements in such liquors which center you with the earth and the craftsmanship. It's also going with the music at the time a little All Green, a Winston Whisky cocktail and the magic will simply follow.

1 & 1/2 ounces Johnnie Walker black
2/3 ounces tawny port (hopefully a 10 year old)
1 teaspoon Drambuie
1 teaspoon simple syrup
1 teaspoon Angostura bitter.
mix all ingredients and stir into a chill cocktail glass.

enjoy your magic.
