Hi everyone,

I don’t drink, but I would like to get all these benefits!
Do raisins have these benefits?

Thank you

My favorite drink is a Ramos gin fizz. This is a drink invented in New Orleans – and it involves an egg!

Ramos Gin Fizz
2 oz Gin (Plymouth)
½ raw egg white
½ oz simple syrup
½ oz lemon juice
3 drops orange flower water
1-2 oz Soda water

The traditional preparation of this drink calls for shaking it in a cocktail shaker for TWELVE MINUTES. Since I refused to add rotator cuff injuries to the other problems associated with alcohol, I use a stick blender to get it started. Some recipes call for cream and lime juice as well – I can take em or leave em. You definitely don’t need the cream to achieved the frothy goodness. What you mustn’t leave out is the orange flower water. It makes the drink. I don’t know about other parts of the country, but in the Northeast you can get it at Armenian grocery stores or specialty liquour stores.

All the ‘benefits’ of alcohol drinks can be found in other places. There is nothing beneficial about alcohol at its core but there is damage caused. Having drinks with friends may increase joy, but there are other ways. Red Wine has resveratrol but there are other ways. You can find all these reported benefits through other avenues. This is a justification for and unhealthy practice.

Life is WAY too short to drink bad beer. (Even though for most of us life is pretty long.)

Here’s one more; I call it a Tuscan Fizz

1 shot vodka
1 shot lemoncello
The juice of one blood orange (seasonal at farmer’s markets)
Splash of San Pellegrino for the fizz
Shake and serve over ice.

Well crafted food needs well crafted cocktails
