Better late than never, eh? I shot these videos yesterday but haven’t been able to get to Tumblr to post them here. This is the first entry for my “Back to Basics” this month; I’m featuring the first original drink I ever came up with. The second cocktail I did on a whim because I wanted to try the combination of rye, pineapple and Peychaud bitters (Okay, so I cheated slightly on my promise for the month).

Tropical Gentleman

  • 1 1/2 oz Tennessee Whiskey (Jack Daniels)
  • 1 1/2 oz Pineapple juice
  • Ginger ale (dry)

Build drink in rocks glass over ice, top with ginger ale and stir slightly to mix.

Unnamed (But still delicious!)

  • 2oz rye whiskey (Sazerac rye here)
  • Pineapple juice
  • 3 dashes Peychaud bitters

Build drink over ice, topping with pineapple juice. Stir and enjoy.

Give both of these a try! These play well with most any American or Canadian whiskies, so don’t fret too much over brand / style.
