Carrington Farms Baking Bundle

Hi gang-

Hope this finds everyone well.  Dom and I are both sick... splitting headaches, nausea, sore throats, aches, and pains.  I have NO IDEA what this is, as we got our flu shots this Fall.

But-  on a happy note.... the public relations firm representing Carrington Farms and Sparkling ICE sent me a little care-package.

I made these over the weekend.

They were OUT OF THIS WORLD!

COCKTAILS:

Recipe Credit: Sparkling Ice

INGREDIENTS
750ml bottle aged rum
1/2 cinnamon stick
1 clove
1 cardamom pod
1 star anise pod
1 vanilla bean
3 allspice berries
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
Sparkling Ice Lemon Lime

DIRECTIONS
Combine rum, cinnamon stick, clove, cardamom, star anise, vanilla bean, allspice berries, and nutmeg in an airtight jar.
Split vanilla bean and scrape seeds into jar along with the bean pod. Close jar and allow infusion to sit in a dark place for at least 3 days.

Ginger Whiskey Cider

Recipe Credit: Brooklyn Crafted

INGREDIENTS
2 oz. Hard Cider
1 oz. Whiskey
Brooklyn Crafted Ginger Beer Mini in Traditional, to fill
Crushed Ice

DIRECTIONS
In a 12-16 oz. high ball glass, combine the hard cider and whiskey.
Fill the glass with crushed ice and top with Brooklyn Crafted.

FOOD:

Corn Soup

Recipe Credit: HUROM

INGREDIENTS
2 cups of Corn
1 cup of Milk
1/8 cup of Onion
Pinch of salt
DIRECTIONS
Boil raw corns until corn kernels are easily crushed by hand, and separate each from the bunch.
Close the juice cap and the lever, and fill the chamber with milk.
Extract corns and onions alternately.
When putting the last ingredients in, place the lever in half-opened position to release the compressed pulp.
Pour juiced corn milk into the pot and boil it over the medium heat by stirring not to be burned.
TIP: If you want to use canned corn, it is better to use after drying on a sieve. You can reduce sweet and salty taste after rinsing in mineral water.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes
