Monster Movie Happy Hour

Monster Movie Happy Hour, episode 8, "Crimson Peak"

Ghost Farmer Productions Episode 8

The crew relish the chance to watch and talk about Guillermo del Toro's 2015 "Crimson Peak". It is a hand's down favorite of all three, and they "wax eloquent"  . . . at least until Mary's "Old Fashioned" cocktails kick in. Oh, brother. 

The main drink for the evening was, appropriately, "The Crimson Cocktail." (You will have to ask Mary about her "Old Fashioned" recipe - the boys are sworn to secrecy.)

* 4 ounces pomegranate juice 

* 2 ounces vodka

* 2 ounces amaretto 

* 1/2 ounce lemon juice fresh

* 6 drops bitters 

* ice

GARNISHES (OPTIONAL)

* 1 Twist of lemon

* 1 Maraschino cherry

INSTRUCTIONS

* In a Shaker, combine the pomegranate juice, vodka, amaretto, lemon juice and bitters. Fill the glass with ice and secure the metal tumbler over the glass.

* Shake the cocktail and ice together about 5-6 times to agitate the ice and chill the cocktail quickly. Strain the cocktail into tall glasses.

* Garnish with a twist of lemon and maraschino cherry, if desired.
