Lush Life
To be a lush chef, does not mean to drink in excess - this can result in scary fires and bad dishes. A lush chef is one who enjoys gourmet cooking/baking, often with fresh ingredients and the smart use of one's home bar. If there happens to be half a bottle of beer, a glass of wine, or a sip of brandy left over...well, one cannot be wasteful. I give you permission to imbibe.

Jameson & Ginger Beer
1:00 PM
Post-St. Patrick's Day, I would imagine many of you need a teensy break from beer. Or maybe some of you don't...
Keeping with the Irish theme this month, this cocktail is a spin on the typical Jameson & Ginger drink. I've always felt that regular ginger ale just doesn't pack enough of a real ginger flavor. Ginger Beer, while non-alcoholic (some brands do have slight traces of alcohol - under 1%), is a lot more potent and uses a lot of real ginger in the flavoring process. This is yet another great cocktail to usher you into spring.
Jameson & Ginger Beer - serves 1
Ingredients:
- 2 oz Jameson Irish Whiskey

Add the whiskey over a glass of ice and top with the ginger beer - Cheers!
