New Drink Introduction: Tanny J
February 17, 2008 | 6:26 pmDuring a whimsical Friday night, I mixed root beer with peach schnapps and discovered (what I thought at the time) was a new heavenly concoction. My boys didn’t have the heart to give it a try (wusses) and strangely enough no one else seems to consider this anything but a vomit inducing mix simply by hearing the ingredients alone.
I assure you it wondrous gem, and something those of you of legal drinking age should try your next party. I’m dubbing it the Tanny J.
The future of this drink involves a two part project:
- Mixology: Discovering the best types of root beer and peach schnapps to use in the drink
- Promotion: Going to bars and asking for a Tanny J. Then when they don’t know, give them the mix and tell them to try it.
Seriously, give it a try!
(Note: I know there’s a recipe for something similar called a ‘Fuzzy Root’. F that. You know it’s real name now. ^_^)
I was there as the drink was mixed, offered to no other takers and consequently consumed, and I can say in all sincerity… F that. ;-)
