A Cocktail for Calvinists

The Presbyterian









The Presbyterian cocktail can be made in a couple of different ways, both though will undoubtedly cool and refresh any Calvinist throat!

Traditional
1.  Pour 2 ounces of scotch over ice into a Collins glass
2.  Top it off with half ginger ale and half club soda.

If desired, ginger ale alone can be used, or cola can be substituted for the club soda. That seems a bit too sweet, however. Some recipes also use bourbon, and other recipes use rye whiskey. It’s all up to your own taste.

OR

The Terry
Rye Whiskey, Ginger Beer, lemon and ice mixed in whatever proportions you desire. The trick is to use Goya Ginger Beer (in the Latin foods section of your local supermarket). Goya adds capsaicin to its brew, which warms your throat even as the ice is cooling it.
