Something to be Thankful For

On behalf of Beth & myself, Happy Thanksgiving!

We here at Salty Sour Spicy Sweet have a lot to be thankful for, and we are sure you do as well. As we prepare to spend some time with our families, feasting and enjoying good company, I wanted to offer you a libation to make your spirits bright. Share one with your family and friends.

Or, if you find yourself in a state of panic at the thought of being closed in your aunt's house which smells of moth balls with your mother silently-yet-unmistakably judging your choice of outfit while your second-cousin waxes poetic about his punk band, the Vomit Rockets, and your great-uncle calls you by a various assortment of incorrect names, take a deep breath, have two of these before even arriving at your Thanksgiving feast and feel no pain. Be thankful for Uncle Jack...Daniels, that is.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Apple Jack Cocktail

2 parts Jack Daniels
1 part apple juice or apple cider
a dash of cinnamon
a dash of fresh ground nutmeg

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice, shake vigorously, pour into cocktail glass and enjoy responsibly. Repeat through New Year's Eve.
