BLACK DAHLIA- IT WON'T KILL YOU


Niki"s drink BEFORE

Niki's Drink AFTER

BLACK DAHLIA
3 ounces of vodka
1 ounce Creme de cassi
A dash of blackberry liqueur







Several friends told me about the BLACK DAHLIA cocktail when they heard of my cocktail blog. Apparently, it is a big favorite among fans of ABC's "Revenge.” I haven’t had a chance to check the show out yet, but it sounds like a good one. Apparently, as one the characters was plotting her revenge, she made this special concoction, and finished it off with a flirty smile.

It was enough to entice me into drinking a BLACK DAHLIA and I’m glad I did. Mixing it was simple. I added the three ingredients above to a shaker, filled it with ice and shook away. Then I strained the purple mixture into the finest glass available at the Inn on the Lake in Canandiagua, New York, in the heart of the Finger Lakes — cool place.

I shared the cocktail with my friend Niki. We both agreed that it looked like Jim Jones’ Koolaid.
 She took a sip and declared “If I drink that I’ll die.” I agree that it was strong, but it is made for sipping in revenge and I get that. Niki she got that it needed to be diluted with ice and 7-up. She was then able to safely drink it without ending her life prematurely. Me, I liked it. But I only had one. I wanted to live to see the NFL playoff game tonight.

After the day I had at Bristol Mountain, skiing the powder in the morning, and the ice in the afternoon, I needed something strong. Hope I don’t feel any revenge in the morning though.

Drink Up^
