Rum Sour

This isn't really that much different than half the goddamn recipes in the rum section. Rum, lemon or lime juice, a bit of sugar. However, maybe it was the lemon I used, but I found this to be waaaaay too sour. Even after I added some water and some more sugar, it still upset my stomach. Ughhhhhh....

Recipe:
1 oz lemon juice
.5 tsp simple syrup
2 oz light rum (Bacardi Superior)

Shake with ice and strain into a chilled sour glass. Garnish with a half-slice of lemon and a maraschino cherry.

Red Hot Poker Drinks at L’Ecole Restaurant
Dave Arnold, the Director of Culinary Technology at The French Culinary Institute, has custom built a Red Hot Poker (pictured above) to be used in creating new hot alcoholic drinks at L’Ecole Restaurant at the school. The high heat from the poker-- which heats to 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit-- creates a “caramelized note” not created by other forms of heat, he said. Come try, The Red Hot Manhattan (sazerac rye and vermouth) or The Red Hot Ale (amber ale and cognac) for $12 each at L’Ecole Restaurant at The French Culinary Institute, 462 Broadway at Grand, New York City. www.frenchculinary.com/lecole. 212-219-3300. 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. nightly.
