Old Fashioned

The Old Fashioned cocktail, its ingredients and its own name, is more than likely be the first cocktail of the old recipe, to have its own name. Of course there are much older cocktails, but they all change any ingredient inthe recipe, while the Old Fashioned cocktail is each and every one of them.


Who popularized the Old Fashioned was a member of the Pendennis club named James E. Pepper, an army colonel and owner of a famous bourbon distillery where the whiskey was produced the famous old 1776, was commissioned to bring the recipe for Old Fashioned to the bar of the famous Waldorf-Astoria hotel in NewYork.

Boilermaker

If you're looking to party and lack, the Boilermaker is infallible. A very easy to drink, many do not dare to combine

Boilermaker

The recipe is:

• 1 shot blended whiskey
• 1 mug of beer

The method of drinking varies. Some shoot the whiskey straight and use the beer as a chaser. 

Others pourthe two together and drink it. A "Depth Charge" Occurs When You drop the shot glass Into the beer down theglass and drink all at once.

I recommend the last one!

I will tell the story of a man willing to forget a woman who has done nothing but torment. (That is something that often happens with this drink), but our character has the formula to combat the bitter memory of love.

He ask the bartender to bring him a beer and a shot of bourbon to drown our sorrows. Repeat and repeat and employee of the bar is surprised when he asks you to serve the third, he tells him to go reassuring because our man is drunk. Just a ray of light filters in the establishment at that time is half empty. The man says it all solitary drinkers "Do not worry." He then adds: "Just bring me one bourbon, one scotch and one beer."

Remember, never says another, it just says one. Just camaraderie prevailed. Both the solitary drinker and the bartender, just clinging to the bar as a lifeline in the long night of the world.

All this history are in "one bourbon, one scotch, one beer" by John Lee Hooker, with a delicious blues, you spreadthe urge to drink a Boilermaker
