Crazy cronuts, stinky catfish and oxymoronic atheist churches are just some of the topics Ari and Deeds discuss in this week's episode!
Drink of the week:
Come to Glory
1 1/2 cups light rum
4 limes, more for garnish
20 mint leaves
1 cup brewed green tea
1 cucumber sliced and more for garnish
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
Club soda
1. Combine the 3/4 cup sugar and 3/4 cup water in a small sauce pan along with the one cucumber. Warm it over a medium-high heat and simmer until the sugar is dissolved. This makes 1 cup total simple syrup. Once the simple syrup has cooled to room temperature, strain out the cucumber and transfer it to the refrigerator to chill.
2. Make your green tea but make sure to chill it before using it in this cocktail. Add five of the mint leaves to a cocktail mixer and the juice from half of a lime, then muddle the mint. Now, don't beat the mint up. Muddling is about releasing the essential oils of the herb into the drink.
3. Now add the remaining juice from that lime, a heaping 1/3 cup of rum, 1/4 cup of green tea and 1/4 cup of the cucumber simple syrup. This is going to be a very smooth mojito, by the way, and very refreshing. Play with the green tea and cucumber measurements to take it in different directions.
4. Mix and serve over ice with a splash of club soda, cucumber slices, more mint and a lime wedge.
