In my dream I was catering for some major diplomatic event so I made loads of these and I woke up with the recipe still stuck in my head. I don’t really drink cocktails (as will become obvious) and we have no vodka in the house so I can’t make it myself but I am open to substitute suggestions for the alcohol bit. Anyway here goes:
Vodka 1 shot (or double)
Miscellaneous tonic (so far, so normal, the next bit is where it gets a bit odd)
1 spoonful of grated carrot (this is the part where DH started rolling his eyes this morning)
A dash of Worcestershire sauce
Throw in a couple of ice cubes and voila!
I woke up convinced I had invented something amazing. All the visiting dignitaries at the event were lapping it up and coming back for more! It does kind of sound like the sort of wanky cocktail recipe they have in the Guardian.
So any willing —guinea pigs— volunteers out there happy to try it? I also need a name for this invention!
