The Pennington Family Cocktail


















Sorry it has been so long since our last post. Our next topic will be our "Top 10 Funniest Persons," and should be up in a few days. In the mean time, I wanted to share a cocktail recipe that I created and get your thoughts. Katie and I call it "The Pennington Family Cocktail" and it is a variation on an "Old Fashioned" and a "Manhattan."

- 4 Parts Whiskey (We like to use Jack Daniels or Maker's Mark)
- 1 Part Triple Sec (or Cointreau if you are rich)
- 2-3 dashes of Angostura Bitters

Directions: Combine the above ingredients in a shaker, add ice, and shake. Pour into a chilled martini glass, garnish with two maraschino cherries, and enjoy!

Try it out and let me know what you think...
