Oh, and if you’re thinking of adding a spirit to this (uh, hem) MOCKTAIL - gin is just the one to do the trick.
This version of homemade LEMONADE is simple, but perfectly balanced in sweetness and tart. It’s a brilliant way to cool down during the warm months of Spring and Summer, and an ideal choice for those poor souls abstaining from alcohol…pssst, I’m a big fan when embellished with a splash of whiskey.
Like so many food experiences from my past, I’ve since worked studiously at replicating the mysterious comfort of Tom Kha; the meaning of the words together are quite simple, TOM translated as “boiling a broth” while KHA is “galangal” and then when listed as the familiar TOM KHA GAI, it’s served with chicken. I love it with poultry and shrimp, but the base soup also stands up brilliantly to vegetables; hence, my version with peppers and hearty mushrooms is every bit as satisfying as other recipes with chicken, shellfish, or meat.
Pour 2¼ oz. gin and ¾ oz. vermouth into a mixing glass filled halfway with ice; stir for 25 seconds or until the exterior of the glass becomes chilly and cloudy. Usually, I roll a silver dollar over the knuckles of my left hand while I stir with my right, but feel free to do whatever you like here.
