Drink and be Merry

Okay, this has nothing to do with being a dad. Unless of course your the dad of a very grouchy girl who is crying because she's cold because she refused to get out of the bathtub until all the water had gone down, while your wife is asking you worried questions about the budget and could you please take out the compost, it stinks like a... compost heap in here.

My first orginal drink recipe:

Old Vermonter

• 1&1/2 oz bourbon
• 1/2 oz maple syrup
• 1/2 oz applejack
• 1/4 tsp lemon juice

Combine in a shaker, serve over ice in an old fashioned glass. If desired, garnish with a moose antler.

Cheers!

(PS. arguably, an Old Vermonter should be made with Canadian whiskey, Vermont being closer to Canada than Kentucky, but I've never tried it. If someone tries it with Canadian and has an opinion, let me know!)
