Candy’s TGIF Stork Club Cocktail

Published on

R.I.P.

Today’s drink is in honor of Cartoon Stork, who graced The Laughing Stork’s header until his demise during the redesign last week, when he was cruelly axed from the site for being deemed “too cheesy.” (Don’t feel too bad for him.  He used to forward me all kinds of inappropriate e-mails.  And did you ever notice that you could only see one of his hands?  You don’t even want to know what he was doing with the other one.  RUDE.)

THE STORK CLUB COCKTAIL (as suggested by Laughing Stork reader, Cowgirl in the Sand)

  • 1-1/2 oz. Gin
  • 1/2 oz. Triple Sec
  • 1/4 oz. Lime juice
  • 1 oz. Orange juice (I’m not a huge gin fan, so I added another ounce of OJ.  Did the trick.)
  • 1 dash Angostura bitters

INSTRUCTIONS

Shake all ingredients with ice.  Strain into a martini glass.  Garnish with an orange twist, if you’re fancy like that.  And…

… This one’s for you, Cartoon Stork.  May you be at peace up there in the big wetlands in the sky, where there are surely plenty of fish on which to dine, and hot stork babes to harass.  *Sniff*  *Sniff*
