“Do you drink?”
“Of course; I just said I was a writer.”
-Stephen King
For
whatever reason, writers have long been associated with alcohol. (Whaaaat? I
never drink! Well, rarely. Okay, only on occasion, I swear!) Some writers have
even had a cocktail named after them! My favorite literary libation is the
Hemingway Daiquiri. Here's my favorite recipe for it:
Hemingway Daiquiri
1 1/2 oz white rum
1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1/4 oz white grapefruit juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
1/4 oz simple syrup
1/4 oz maraschino liqueur
Shake ingredients together with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.
“Write drunk; edit sober.” – Ernest Hemingway
That Stephen King comment cracked me up. Thanks for the recipe. Rum is my favorite liqueur. Yum.
