On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Irish Whiskey Part 2 with Tim Herlihy - U.S. Brand Ambassador for Tullamore D.E.W. (Part 1 here). We met Tim at Swift Hibernian Lounge and had a great chat!
You can enter the Cider Shake Cocktail Competition (before December 31, 2015).
Egg whites in Cocktails, Part 3: "Aquafaba" - the brine in chickpea cans - apparently is a great substitution for egg whites in cooking and in making cocktails! The advantages of Aquafaba over egg whites:
Cheap and plentiful
Reduced risk of Salmonella
Guests may be more accepting
Vegan
There was recently a great article on Tales of the Cocktail's web site about substituting Aquafaba for egg whites.
Dushan Zaric, co-author of the Speakeasy book, recently gave a great seminar at the Tampa USBG's Repeal Day Conference called "Health, Wellness & Other Things - How to Work a Shift & Not Get Upset". You can find Dushan's PowerPoint presentation for this seminar, as well as all his others here.
