    Happy Hour Returns: The Revenge of Turkey

    OK, it's a cross post with The Perfect Sip. Mostly. The boys do talk some baseball at the beginning. Oh, and they'll be back on Monday to talk about how the Giants definitely aren't signing Soto. In this episode they have ridiculous discussions about olive loaves and Ben makes a joke about eating a national icon. It's your typical mayhem really. The cocktails are good though. Recipes below. (Didn't have Randy Winn as VPPD on my bingo card.) White Picket Fence3 oz Spiced Whiskey Milk Punch2-4 oz Sparkling Cider0-2 oz Club SodaPour the milk punch into a highball glass over ice.

You should see curdling happen immediately. Stir gently to help it along.Let the mixture sit for a minute or two, then filter through cheesecloth or a coffee filter. Once some curds have collected in the filter, move the filter to a new container and re-strain the first portion of the final product. Spiced Whiskey 750 ml of Whiskey of you choice2 cinnamon sticks1 star anise pod4 cloves1/4 cracked nutmegCombine whiskey and spices in a sealed bottle or jar.
