all in

Monday mornings are going to look a little different around here. I traded in an air conditioned office for a stuffy studio, a computer for a wheel, and pile of reports for a mound of clay.

I'll drink to that.

New York Sour, slightly adapted from Food 52

Serves 11 3/4 ounce rye whiskey3/4 ounces freshly squeezed lemon juice1/2 ounce simple syrup 1/2 ounce dry red wine1 lemon twist, for garnishCombine the rye, lemon, and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice, and shake vigorously for 8 to 10 seconds. Strain into a rocks glass filled with ice. Hold a spoon upside down over the glass, just above the surface of the drink, and pour the red wine over the back of the spoon into the glass; this way, the wine will trickle gently into the drink and “float” at the top of the glass, rather than sinking. Garnish with a lemon twist.
