Porky swigs: Bars stirring up bacon cocktails
2009-09-23 05:00:00 Adam Seger of Nacional 27 with the ingredients for his Ham and Cheese cocktail and the Baconcello cocktail in Chicago. Chase Agnello-Dean/Redeye Associated PressStep 1: Cook bacon. Step 2: Remove fat. Step 3: Tear into pieces. This sounds like the start of a nice breakfast, but it's actually the first part of mixologist Adam Seger's Baconcello recipe. The next step is steeping the bacon in vodka for 72 hours.Bacon-infused spirits and other so-called "carnivorous cocktails" are quirky options on the menus of some cutting-edge bars these days, and with the introduction this May of a mass-produced product called Bakon Vodka, flesh-flavored spirits are nudging their way into the mainstream drinking scene....

2009-08-30 12:00:00 When you go out to a nightclub, after a couple of drinks, it can be a big job to keep an eye on your drink, so what would you think of drink bouncers to do it for you.

Qui a dit que les cocktails sans alcool étaient ringards ?
2009-07-08 08:23:00 Encore une idée véhiculée par les lobbies de l'alcool... A l'heure où l'on fait attention à ce que l'on mange, les cocktails sans alcool sont plutôt à la mode et vous aident à garder un ?il sur ce que vous buvez ! Les cocktails sans alcool sont à partager avec tous sans exclusion. L'alcool dans une soirée est très exclusif : il met de côté toutes les personnes qui ne veulent ou ne peuvent pas boire : les enfants (lorsqu'ils sont là), les conducteurs, les femmes enceintes, les personnes au régime. Il est très frustrant de se retrouver avec des amis et de ne pas partager leur enthousiasme. Le pire étant quand vous refusez un verre : personne ne comprend et vous en entendez parler toute la soirée. Il faut être sacrément rodé pour arriver à refuser tous les verres que l'on vous propose, à répondre aux questions « pourquoi tu ne bois pas ? » et à éviter ce cliché d'être un ringard parce qu'on préfère l'eau pétillante ! C'est l'a...

Researchers develop method to rapidly ID optimal drug cocktails
2008-03-18 21:04:00 UCLA researchers have developed a feedback control scheme that can search for the most effective drug combinations to treat a variety of conditions, including cancers and infections. The discovery could play a significant role in facilitating new clinical drug-cocktail trials. The best known use of drug cocktails has been in the fight against HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Drug cocktails also have been used to combat several types of cancer. Often, drugs that might not be effective in combating diseases individually do much better in combination. With the use of the new closed-loop feedback control scheme, an approach guided by a stochastic search algorithm, researchers at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science and UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have devised an invaluable means of identifying potent drug combinations fast and efficiently. Their findings appear in the March 17 online version of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy...

Highbrow Cocktails (my own and my love for others')
2008-01-08 16:05:00 Although they were one of the big trends of 2007, I have always liked creative handcrafted cocktails. I think the infamous Milk and Honey in Manhattan’s Lower East Side was the first place to offer such libations, and, because I’m sooo cool, I used to have their phone number and have been there a few times – of course, this was a number of years ago, before they got really popular and started changing their number like every month because people were posting it on the internet. The owners of M&H then opened Little Branch, for which you don’t need a phone number to get in, and, although I’ve only been once, I think it’s just as good as – if not better – than the original (probably because it is stripped of all pretenses). There are now a handful of other bars in NYC that specialize in such cocktails, but I think my favorite handcrafted cocktail bar of the moment is Bramble. It’s in Edinburgh. Scotland. I read about this place in some magazine I found on ... |
