Birthday at Home night…

“Real food doesn’t have ingredients, real food is ingredients.”
Jamie Oliver

Since both of us share birthdays a few days apart we choose 1 night to go out and the other two dinners at home easy and nothing extravagant…tonight I decided to make a great fall-ish Jaime Oliver cocktail to have before dinner as well as almost Jaime’s Italian chicken al Mattone. Such an easy dinner and we were too hungry to take a photo, but the bourbon cocktail was a good one while cooking and grilling. See the link below for his recipes…

2 tablespoons maple syrup 
300 ml bourbon 
1 teaspoon Angostura bitters 
1 rooibos teabag 
orange or clementine peel to garnish 

The cost per serving below is generated by Whisk.com and is based on cost in individual supermarkets.  Put the maple syrup, the bourbon, and Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker and give it a good shake, then bottle, add the teabag to infuse, and keep in the freezer until needed.

TO ORDER Remove and discard the teabag, then pour over ice in a tumbler, coupe, or martini glass, garnishing each drink with a strip of orange, cara cara, or clementine peel.
