Creamy Screwdriver

September 17, 2011 (Day 172) — Creamy Screwdriver

I hate blenders in the bar. I’ve said it before. I will probably always continue to say it. The grinding, harsh cacophony of grinding bits and gears completely kills the relaxed, chummy atmosphere that the bar should foster. That being said, however, there are some killer cocktails that feature blenders. I’ll break this rule tonight. We’re making a blended cocktail.

It's okay. Just this once.

Creamy Screwdriver

• 3 oz 360 Madagascar Vanilla Vodka
• 6 oz orange juice
• 1 egg white
• 1/2 cup crushed ice

Combine the ingredients in a blender and blend well, at least 30 seconds. Pour into a highball glass filled with cubed ice. Serve with a garnish of orange slice.

Because you have the egg whites, it will be nice and whipped into a nice froth. Very well balanced, rich and smooth.

Cheers!
