Attention All Bacon Lovers

You knew it wouldn't be long unil all of the bacon buzz we've generated would influence the culture of mixology...



Presenting the Bacon Martini




"Lightly mist martini glass with vermouth, and rim the edge with bacon grease. In a cocktail shaker, mix 3oz vodka, one dash Tabasco, and one dash olive juice. Shake well and strain into cocktail glass. Skim excess bacon grease from surface of cocktail. Garnish with one slice of bacon."


Make mine a double! With a shot of maple syrup liquer on the side.

    I think I'm going to throw up.

    Do you think that some bartender with just a little too much time on his/her hands, contemplated, "W.W.H.S.D?"*























    *"What Would Homer Simpson Drink?"

    I think you would ruin a good strip of bacon that way. But for a martini lover, it might work. Is that a gin or vodka martini? Might you get it on the rocks?

    Note to self: Avoid cocktails that must have excess grease strained off the top.

    something about this sounds really good and really bad at the same time.

    Good old indecisive Genn...maybe I'll join you for one of those.
