<p>F&#228;lschlicherweise hat der Cosmopolitan, vor allem dank &#8220;Sex in the City&#8221;, den Ruf, ein Lady-Drink zu sein. Aber derartige Vorurteile sollten wir im Zeitalter der Emanzipation doch l&#228;ngst &#252;berwunden haben!</p>

<p>Wenn die Basis eines Cocktails 15j&#228;hriger Matusalem-Rum ist, dann kann &#8211; zumindest f&#252;r meinen Geschmack &#8211; nicht mehr allzuviel schief gehen. Trader Vic Bergeron f&#252;gt au&#223;erdem Orgeta-Sirup, Navan und einige andere Specials hinzu. Ein paar Tropfen Angostura und Pastis fungieren als Modifier: klingt spannend!</p>
<p>Trader hat den Drink f&#252;r den <a href="http://www.mixologysummit.com/AgeVerification.aspx?ReturnUrl=/Default.aspx">Grand Marnier Mixology Summit</a> komponiert, das komplette Rezepet f&#252;r den <a href="http://www.tradertiki.com/mixology-summit-2009-the-sweet-ron-swizzle/">Sweet Ron Sizzle</a> gibt&#8217;s am Trader Tiki Blog, dessen RSS-Feed sowieso jeder Alkohol-Afficionado abonniert haben sollte. Geht ein wenig in die Richtung des von mir kreierten Millonario-Punch und erfreut den Gaumen mit komplexen Geschmacks-Nuancen.</p>

<p>Food-Fotografie geh&#246;rt zu den schwierigsten Disziplinen &#8211; und nur wenige Fotografen verstehen es, Cocktails in ein Licht zu r&#252;cken, das einem das Wasser im Munde zusammenlaufen lassen. Et voilá: das Cocktail-Blog pr&#228;sentiert eine neue Serie: jede Woche ver&#246;ffentlichen wir an dieser Stelle das Cocktail-foto der Woche:</p>

<p>In unregelm&#228;&#223;igen Abst&#228;nden werden wir an dieser Stelle Drink vorstellen, die wir selbst kreiert und im harten Bar-Alltag getestet haben. Echte Crowd-Pleaser eben, die, wenn sie so wollen, jeder Bar das gewisse Etwas verleihen. Basis unseres heutigen Drinks ist ein Premium Rum, der bei den j&#228;hrlichen Meisterschaften 2008 den Serien-Sieger Zacapa in der Kategorie 15j&#228;hrige Zuckerrohrbr&#228;nde vom Thron sto&#223;en konnte.</p>
<p><strong>Zutaten</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>6cl Millonario 15years</li>
<li>6cl frisch gepresster Limettensaft</li>
<li>2cl D.O.M. Benedictine</li>
<li>3cl Cuarenta y Tres</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Zubereitung</strong></p>
<p>Alle Zutaten mit reichlich Eis ausgiebig shaken, in eine vorgek&#252;hltes Cocktailschale (ohne Eis!) abseihen, Glasrand mit einem Limettenschnitzer garnieren.</p>
<p><strong>Tipp:</strong> zum K&#252;hlen des Glases einen Eisw&#252;rfel mehrmals schwenken; da der Drink ohne Eis serviert wird, muss er etwas l&#228;nger als z.B. ein Mai Tai gesch&#252;ttelt werden, um die richtige Trinktemperatur zu erreichen.</p>

<p>Jahrelang blieb Ron Zacapa beim International Rum Festival ungeschlagen. Connaisseurs dachten gar, die Blender aus Guatemala w&#252;rden nie mehr vom Thron gesto&#223;en, denn der feine, Cognac-artige Geschmack, erreicht durch den sorgsamen Ausbau im Holzfass, war wahrlich einzigartig. Wohlgemerkt: war. Denn seit 2008 d&#252;rfen sich die Peruaner von der Destillerie Ron Millonario die Nummer 1 der Welt nennen! Die 15j&#228;hrige Abf&#252;llung bekam die Goldmedaille und verdr&#228;ngte Zacapa von Platz 1.</p>
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.cocktail-blog.com/wp-content/plugins/autothumb/image.php?src=/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/millonario.jpg&amp;aoe=1&amp;q=100&amp;w=450&amp;h=291&amp;hash=d09946916fbcffc8efaa379db08c16e4" alt=" Sensation in der Welt des Rums: Ron Millonario regiert" title="millonario" style="border:1px solid gray;" /></div>
<p>Der Geschmack dieser Reserve Especial tendiert in eine &#228;hnliche Richtung wie Zacapa, die aufw&#228;ndig gestaltete Flasche wird von einer geflochtenen Au&#223;enh&#252;lle umschlossen. Erh&#228;ltlich ist Ron Millonario 15 Years um rund 50 Euro. Beide Rumsorten werden &#252;brigens nach dem traditionellen, in Kuba entwickelten &#8220;Systema Solera&#8221;, einer ausgekl&#252;gelten Serie von Umf&#252;ll-Vorg&#228;ngen (dazu demn&#228;chst mehr), hergestellt.</p>
<h2>Cocktail-Tipp: Classic Rum Punch</h2>
<p>Dieses Getr&#228;nk hat nichts mit dem zu tun, was man im Deutschen unter einem &#8220;Punsch&#8221; versteht. Herrlich spritzig im Sommer, empfiehlt es sich, diesen Drink mit hohem Alkoholgehalt mit sehr hochwertigen Spirituosen zuzubereiten. Wer denkt, die Verwendung 15j&#228;hrigen Rums in Cocktails sei eine Verschwendung, m&#246;ge diesen Tipp mal ausprobieren:</p>
<ul>
<li>6cl Ron Millonario 15 years oder Ron Zacapa 15 years</li>
<li>5cl frisch gepresster Limettensaft</li>
<li>2cl D.O.M. Benedictine</li>
<li>1cl Cuarenta y Tres</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Zubereitung:</strong> Alle Zutaten auf reichlich Eis shaken, anschlie&#223;end in ein Martiniglas abseihen (ohne Eis!). Den Glasrand mit einem kleinen St&#252;ck ungespritzter Limette samt Schale garnieren. Prost!</p>

<p>There can&#8217;t be good living where there is not good drinking.<br />
(Benjamin Franklin)</p>
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.cocktail-blog.com/wp-content/plugins/autothumb/image.php?src=/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/rumsorten.jpg&amp;aoe=1&amp;q=100&amp;w=450&amp;h=557&amp;hash=9c4e901425d03b54ba3824f3b428dcb2" alt="Cuba Libre Cocktailrezept" title="rumsorten" style="border:1px solid black;" /></div>
<p>Das bis heute popul&#228;re Rumgetr&#228;nk wurde um 1900 in der kubanischen Metropole Havanna nach Ende des Spanisch-Amerikanischen Krieges erfunden. US-amerikanische Truppen feierten Ihren Sieg und stie&#223;en mit einer fl&#252;ssigen Mischung aus Limonade, Rum und Limettensaft auf die „Befreiung“ Kubas an. De facto war es eigentlich eine Unterwerfung des vorher spanischen Kubas und die Mischung wurde daher von den Exilkubanern auch „Mentirita“ (&#252;bersetzt „kleine L&#252;ge“) genannt.<br />
„Viva Cuba libre &#8211; Es lebe das freie Kuba“. Auch in Europa gewann der Rum-Cocktail seit den f&#252;nfziger Jahren immer mehr an Popularit&#228;t. Mit dem amerikanischen Kassenschlager „Rum and Coca-Cola“ von den Andrew Sisters verbreite sich das alkoholische Getr&#228;nk auch in unseren sch&#246;nen Beitengraden. </p>

<p>F&#228;lschlicherweise wird der Name „Cuba Libre“, eine Mixtur aus Cola und kubanischem Rum, oft gleichbedeutend mit dem Longdrink Rum-Cola verwendet, der auch Rum anderer Herkunftsl&#228;nder enthalten kann und meistens mit herk&#246;mmlichen Zitronen gemischt wird. Ich meine das jetzt nicht negativ, ich mag Zitronen, aber in einem Cuba Libre hat die saure Frucht einfach nichts verloren.</p>
<p>Meine ganz pers&#246;nliche Zubereitung:</p>
<ul>
<li>6 cl Rum (Havana Club 3y oder Matusalem 7y)</li>
<li>10 cl Cola</li>
<li>Saft von einer halben Limette</li>
<li>6 Eisw&#252;rfel</li>
</ul>
<p>Die Eisw&#252;rfel mit dem Saft der ausgepressten Limette in ein Longdrinkglas f&#252;llen, Rum dazugie&#223;en und langsam mit Cola auff&#252;llen. (Achtung, tendiert zum Sch&#228;umen :mrgreen:)</p>
<blockquote><p>Rum makes the caribbean world go round!</p></blockquote>

<p>Bad drinks are easy to find, but truly memorable disasters are few and far between. Here are cocktails that go beyond “poorly conceived” and cross squarely over into Hindenburg territory. Utilizing a combination of bad planning and wildly misplaced enthusiasm, we concocted each of these top 3 liquid attrocities:</p>
<p>1. VIP Sangría</p>
<p>Fanta<br />
Cut fruit<br />
1 bottle of extremely expensive vintage wine</p>
<p>Sangría: the refreshing summer drink with the mysterious nonsense name. But it’s a beverage with a fatal flaw. That’s right—the terrible wine. Why serve a bottle of plonk concealed by low-rent soda pop when you can trade up to something they’ll remember … say, a 1975 Chateau d’Yquem accentuated by Orange Fanta, or a 1984 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild Bordeaux complemented by Grape Fanta?</p>
<p>Now that’s class! Note to New York, Tokyo, Moscow, and London club owners: This drink can quite easily be marked up to $900 a glass without raising an eyebrow.</p>
<p>2. The D-Bomb</p>
<p>Meat from one ripe durian, cut in half, immersion blended with:<br />
6 ounces vodka<br />
6 ounces light rum<br />
Juice of four limes</p>
<p>Spoon mixture into durian halves, each garnished with a gently used sock (recipe makes two sizable drinks).</p>
<p>Looking to step up the visual impact of your next Pacific-themed grilling party? Tap into the power of the biggest, baddest tropical fruit under the sun.</p>
<p>The sock garnish helps to moderate the drink’s odor without in any way conflicting with the earth undertones of Abe Vigoda and capital punishment that make durian such an adventure. Switch up to pantyhose to set a classier tone, or dress the drink down with a sweat sock that has survived a grueling neighborhood game of b-ball!</p>
<p>3. Crazy Grapes</p>
<p>1 ounce sweet white wine<br />
1 ounce Everclear 190-proof alcohol<br />
1/2 ounce pineapple juice<br />
1/2 ounce lime juice<br />
Power drill<br />
20 large white or red grapes<br />
Ikebana stand<br />
Eyedropper<br />
20 toothpicks<br />
Half an orange<br />
Miniature lighter or a book of matches</p>
<p>1. Mix your alcohol and juices, and heat them on the stovetop—but only briefly. You want the liquid warm but not actually on fire.</p>
<p>2. Take your power drill and a reasonably sized bit (try a 62-gauge), and drill out all 20 of the grapes. Discard the interior meat.</p>
<p>3. Oh, you weren’t supposed to drill all the way through them. You just want to make them into tiny cups. Get 20 more grapes. Try again.</p>
<p>4. You’ll probably want to reheat the alcohol again. Watch that burner!</p>
<p>5. Use the ikebana stand to keep all the grapes upright, and then use the eyedropper to fill each grape with several drops of warmed alcohol mixture.</p>
<p>6. Now, all you have to do is mount each individual grape on its own toothpick—being perfectly careful, of course, not to penetrate so far into the grape as to rupture the inner barrel of liquor. And then put each toothpick into the orange half, hemispherical side up. Be sure to calculate the angle of grape mounting so as not to spill the contents once the toothpicks are inserted into the orange. Think “concordant angles.”</p>
<p>7. OK, now light all of the grapes with the lighter or matches so that they turn into tiny little drinkable torches.</p>
<p>8. If the grapes aren’t catching fire, the alcohol’s probably cooled down too much.</p>
<p>9. If all else fails, a crème brûlée torch can generally set 40 to 50 percent of the grapes alight while destroying the remainder. Not pretty, but it works.</p>
<p>10. Et voilà! You’ve got a provocative drinkatizer that’ll enchant and delight. Assuming you’re able to move it out into the living room without spilling it or setting small fires.</p>
<p>11. Actually, it’s probably best to set this thing up wherever you’re serving it.</p>

<p>Photos and recipes along with Kate Carter&#8217;s interview with designer Tony Conigliaro, the bartender applying the techniques of molecular gastronomy to cocktails. Unbelievable.</p>
<p>The cocktail in front of me is supposed to be a Prairie Oyster, but it looks more like a cross between a fried egg and a particularly slimy mollusc, served on an oyster shell. &#8220;Go on, try it!&#8221; chuckles its inventor, Tony Conigliaro, a top bartender who is applying the now rather infamous techniques of molecular gastronomy to cocktails. I brace myself for sliminess and other horrors but when the yolk enters my mouth it dissolves into a vodka-tomato liquid that&#8217;s more tomatoey than anything I&#8217;ve ever tasted, before &#8211; right on cue &#8211; a foamy Worcestershire sauce chaser kicks in. It has the intensity of flavour you associate more with food than mixed drinks, and it&#8217;s absolutely delicious.</p>
