Making the Hair of the Dog Drink
The recipe is a simple equation of equal parts cream and honey to two parts whiskey.
- ounce cream or half-and-half
- ounces scotch whiskey
- ounce honey syrup (½ ounce water and ½ ounce honey)
To prepare, heat the water and honey together over low heat until everything is combined and the honey is dissolved, then allow to cool. Add everything together in a shaker partially filled with ice cubes. Shake until chilled, strain ice, pour into a glass, and consume.
Measuring Tools
Measuring the ingredients is key to making your favorite smoothies again and again. Measuring cups are ideal for liquids while a scale is more accurate for measuring dry ingredients.
Cutting Boards
Reserve one or more cutting boards for fresh produce to avoid potential contamination from raw meats.
