Cocktail Time!

So even though i've still been busy with the whole house closing headache (which still isn't comepleted), it has somehow not compromised my drinking habits.  To celebrate, I want to share an old shot recipe that I've had for a long time, and an excellent little deal you can do at a party.

Nuclear Fallout
1½ oz. Pomegranate Vodka
splash of Grenadine
1 oz.  Cranberry juice
½ oz. Blue Curaçao

Easy enough,  all you really do is shake the first three ingredients over ice, pour into a shot glass, and drizzle the blue Curaçao over the back of a spoon.  You can easily just throw everything together in the shaker, but pouring over the back of a spoon not only creates a great layer of flavor, but a neat little visual.  Here's a closeup picture of what the finished product should look like.  Photo courtesy of my lovely wife, Crystal!

Have fun with this one!  Simple and enjoyable!
