Whether it is a person going to the bar to order a special cup, or holding a cup of hot wine at home, hiding in the bed to warm up, the hot wine is under the belly, and the heart is also warmed up, which is also another sense of "winter supplement".
Although the winter in Taiwan can not be considered too cold, but the rainy days, even the mood has been soaked wet and wrinkled, and just after the winter solstice, just after the winter solstice, just as people are busy digesting Zhang Luo's tangyuan and buying a new coat before the New Year, the busyness of this year has also quietly entered the countdown.
Winter supplements, immediately can be associated with ginger duck, lamb stove and other hot taiwanese hot pot, rice wine can be used to supplement, then with whiskey, it should also be ok, medicine and food homology, ancient Europe also uses bartending, tune out their methods of fighting the cold winter.
At the end of the year, it is time to smell the aroma coming out of the cup after a busy end, drink a mouthful of sweet and warm hot wine, and say "hard" to yourself.
This time, we asked Nul Richard to demonstrate and sort out a few of the more common "classic hot mixions" that warm the heart and warm the whole body:
Irish coffee
The true "wine and coffee" of Irish coffee originated from an encounter in an Irish airport.
Flight attendants who often stop in Dublin because of their work will go to the bar in the airport to drink coffee every time, and the bartender has a long-term affection and thinks of his love for the flight attendant as a cup of coffee with brandy. One time the flight attendant really ordered this drink, the bartender was too happy, and cried with joy when making it, so he smeared some of his own tears on the mouth of the cup, hoping to convey his heart through this glass of wine.
Although it seems to be a complete epidemic prevention now, but because of such a romantic story, Irish coffee is said to be the easiest to close the "confession key drink".
Irish coffee later became popular in San Francisco because the bartending in San Francisco was sold primarily not in bars, but in coffee shops as a form of fancy coffee. It seems that people prefer to get drunk on the occasion of the awakening rather than to wake up in the place where they are drunk.
Nul Richard's Irish coffee, instead of brandy, is a three-time distilled naked wheat Irish whisky with a clearer taste, which can highlight the rich aroma of coffee but still retain the aroma of whiskey. And the warm thick whipped cream can alleviate some of the hot sensations.
Measured
When first introduced, there is a layer of cream smoothness, slightly cool taste mixed with warm coffee, the taste is very creamy, and whisky appears after the drink is in the throat, the spicy and wine feeling is almost completely neutralized by the cream, and the only thing left is the aroma of the wine and the tail rhyme of the coffee.
People who don't like whisky can also try to see the wine.
It is recommended to drink while hot. When it gets colder, the taste of coffee, wine and cream will be more divided, and the spicy taste will become more pronounced.
Like tiramisu with wine melted in the mouth, it is a "big-natured" liquid dessert that can be ordered after a meal.
Retodi
The famous cold home remedy hot toddy is a good companion for British people in the epidemic. As for this "hot and drinking, fast and good" drink, it is said that the Irish physician Robert Bentley Todd prescribed a drink mixed with whiskey, spices, and sugar water for patients to take on time, hence the name.
Nul Richard's hot toddy uses cloves, cinnamon as spices in addition to the classic recipes of whiskey, hot water, sugar, and honey, and garnishes the cup with a layer of red pepper powder.
The wine is not obvious, the rich lemon fragrance, drinking at the time of nasal congestion will be heaven.
The taste is refreshing and unburdened, suitable for when you just enter the room on a cold day, first order a cup to warm the body, and the refreshing sour taste can achieve a good appetizing effect.
Although he can warm up and soothe the symptoms of a cold, he is a glass of wine after all, and it is better to drink it in moderation.
Mulled wine
In winter, it can be said that one of the classic heart-warming drinks, mulled wine, has been around since the 2nd century in Greece. In order not to waste a drop of wine on the table, the ancient Greeks boiled the inexhaustible wine with spices and re-boiled it to drink.
After the popularity of mulled wine, there were also different versions of the practice in Sweden, so this warm drink throughout winter Europe became a regular drink for the Christmas season, whether it was a market, a bar, a glass of spiced mulled wine, even if you don't drink it, just hold it and smell it.
The soul of mulled wine lies in the layered combination of spices, usually with fresh fruit or dried fruit, but this time Nul Richard demonstrated a rose-scented version of mulled wine.
When the red wine is heated, add rose water, goji berries, strawberry syrup, lemon, chocolate liquor, cloves, cinnamon, and add a little shredded chili pepper to the glass, replacing the dried fruit with fresh flower and fruit spices.
Girls can drink paper during menstruation, cold hands and feet.
The rose aroma is heavy, not astringent astringency as denim characteristic of red wine, but there is a sense of sweet and sour juice.
A little chili makes the overall taste less beautiful, but it doesn't have a strong spicy feeling.
It's perfect for a hot drink after a meal, and it's even more perfect with chocolate cake.
It is also very comfortable to go out on New Year's Eve and drink alone in a blanket while chasing dramas.
eggnog
As a traditional staple drink for Christmas, fragrant eggnog appeared in monasteries as early as the 13th century and was also regarded as a drink that could cure colds, when eggs and milk were quite valuable ingredients, so in that era, eggnog was only affordable for the rich.
Eggnog has a variety of flavors because of its long history, with milk swapped for coconut milk in Puerto Rico, while eggnog in Mexico has a heavier flavor. The common base wine for eggnog is rum, but Nul Richard's demonstration this time is an eggnog based on brandy, which feels more aromatic.
In addition to the base egg yolks, milk and brandy, this cup of eggnog is also enriched with whipped cream, and finally sprinkled with nutmeg powder, you can smell a faint woody aroma when you sip the cup before drinking.
The taste is thick, not very eggy, and there is no strong sense of burden after swallowing (it will not squeeze into the throat to produce phlegm).
It has a very nutritious feeling and is suitable for eating with cream biscuits.
Brandy is fragrant and does not have the pungency of the spirit.
Special
Inspired by "Hot Winter Drinks", this special hot mixo is inspired by hot cocoa, heated with chocolate and banana liqueurs, topped with biscuits, marshmallows, and finally sprinkled with matcha powder to neutralize the sweetness.
The wine is lighter and tastes like sweet hot cocoa, but it doesn't have the thick feeling you thought you would.
The marshmallow itself is not very sweet, the taste is very q, and the slight bitterness of matcha is like an elegant after-dinner dessert.
Suitable for beginners who love sweet bartending.
In the wet and cold winter, if you don't want to go to great lengths to invite friends to eat hot pot at a large table, whether it is a person to the bar to order a special cup, or a cup of hot wine at home, hiding in the bed to warm up, hot wine belly, the heart also warms up, this is also another sense of "winter supplement". #Winter Supplement # #调酒 #
