Ep 206 - Phonogram
I think I know what this book is about, but to be really honest, I’m not so sure there even is a point to it beyond your own personal reflections and what you choose to make out of it. To me, it was about growing up and wanting to stay young and resurrect the good old days, but coming to the realization that you have to move on and become a different person. So you can relive your memories and romanticize the good old days, but you can never go back. This drink, the Britpop, stems from the idea of enjoying something simple and sweet from your youth when you thought you were classier than you were.
2 oz gin
1 oz berry vodka
1/2 oz maraschino liqueur
2 dashes cherry bitters
Black cherry for garnish
Add all the liquid ingredients to an ice filled shaker, shake the shit out of it, and strain into an ice filled rocks glass. Garnish with a black cherry.
