On this weeks podcast we try another hot toddie, a whiskey toddie.  Although these tempting alcohol libations have not ben en vogue for a few decades we are trying to bring them back.  Whiskey, Rum, Cognac and Brandy all work well in warm or hot cocktails.  Pumpkin turns her nose up at our drink of the week but Sunshine appreciates the true joy of hot booze.  Our topics of conversation this week are certainly varied.  Did rats destroy Easter Island?  Are you ready to take your Xmas lighting into the green zone?  Havc you heard the latest on gay hating?  Did you know Texas is a place for diminished civil rights?  And, Pumpkin gives us another installment of her natural home remedies.  Have a warm cocktail and take a listen. Whiskey Toddie: In a saucepan start with 2 cups cold water.  Bring to a boil and add your favorite mulling spices.  (typically cinnamon, clove, ginger, allspice)  Add 4 tablespoons sugar (brown sugar is even better) and continue to stir.  Take off heat and strain out spices.  Pour over 1 to 2 ounces whiskey in a mug or irish coffee mug.  Serves 4 people Rum Toddie: Boil 2 cups apple cider.  In a tea baller or tea sac, add a few cloves and some cracked allspice berries.  Dunk in cider for about 5 minutes then remove.  Pour apple cider over 1 to 2 ounces dark rum in a mug.  Add 1 teaspoon butter if desired.  Use a cinnamon stick for garnish. Hot Pineapple Rum Punch:  This one is for the crock pot.  Add all ingredients to crock.  1 can Dole pineapple juice, 24 ounces apple cider, tea sac filled with 10 cloves and two cinnamon sticks broken several times.  After mixture has gotten hot, allow tea sac to infuse for another 15 minutes.  Remove tea sac and add 5 dashes Angostura Bitters.  Put out several mugs already filled with 1 ounce dark rum or brandy.  Allow guests to ladle in hot mixture when they are ready to drink.

McKinlay's Rare Old Scotch Whisky was one of the many brands destined to be part of the history books...until two cases of McKinlay's were discovered in 2006 beneath a hut used by Sir Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic expedition from 1907 to 1909. Now, whisky lovers all over the world want to know what a whisky stored in ice for a century would taste like. We'll hear from Al Fastier of the New Zealand Antarctic Heritage Trust and Richard Paterson of Whyte & Mackay on plans to recover the whisky from its icy home in February...and what should happen to it. In the news, Edrington Group plans to mothball Tamdhu Distillery, a new master distiller for The Glenlivet, and Whisky Magazine presents its U.S. Icons of Whisky Awards.

La neige était blanche, mes pensées étaient noiresLe soleil était chaud et je marchais à l’ombreLes gens étaient optimistes, j’étais au désespoirJ’avais le cœur trop lourd et un pied dans la tombeSous un croissant de lune je faisais mes nuits blanchesDessous la pluie battante je séchais tous mes coursJ’aimais bien le whisky presque autant qu’un ComancheJ’étais un kamikaze fonçant sur Pearl HarborLe temps passe….rien ne me lasseLes temps passe rien ne me lasse mais, le temps passe…J’étais droit comme un I la tête dans les nuagesMes pensées volaient souvent au ras des pâquerettesJ’aimais la liberté mais j’étais un lion en cage Qui bavait trop souvent sur de belles chevrettesJe n’avais que vingt ans et la vie devant moiMes jambes étaient agiles et j’avais toutes mes dentsLes cheveux dans les yeux, ils étaient encore làSaleté de calvitie comme tout fout le campLe temps passe….rien ne me lasseLes temps passe rien ne me lasse mais, le temps passe…Je perdais tout mon temps et j’en avais tellementJe cherchais mon destin, j’oubliais l’avenirJe ne savais pas encore qu’il faut du temps au tempsPour mettre de coté nos pensées les piresJe ne sais toujours rien, je n’ai appris que peuDes choses qui nous guident et nous font avancerJe ne suis qu’un apprenti de la vie c’est merveilleuxJe n’en serai jamais ouvrier qualifiéLe temps passe….rien ne me lasseLes temps passe rien ne me lasse mais, le temps passe…Author: jomusic Tags: neige pensées noires soleil chaud ombre optimistes tombe lune nuits-blanches whisky comanche pearl-harbor nuages paquerette lion kamikaze dents cheveux calvitie destin chevrettes alcool le-temps-passe Posted: 20 November 2009 Rating: 5.0 Votes: 3
