This week Sodwee suggests / Tunes & Booze

  • Gloria by Van Morrison/John Lee Hooker & Gin Tonic
    A classic, by the master of blues, great on a lazy afternoon, with emails to answer. Gives you rythm in typing.
    2 oz dry gin
    1/2 lime
    1 ice cube
    fill quinine water
    In a 12 ounce Tom Collins glass with ice, pour gin and squeeze juice of lime. Set aside strip of lime peel. Fill glass with tonic and stir. Drop peel in glass.

  • Fix Up, Look Sharp by Dizzee Rascal & Bourbon Slush
    A rockin beat, covered by an impressive, infectuous flow. This is a “not-to-miss” tune. If you haven’t got it : GRAB IT ! Great bash starter… Tea-time punch.

    2 1/2 cups hot tea
    12 oz frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
    6 oz frozen orange juice concentrate
    2 cups bourbon
    1 cup sugar
    6 cups water
    Let tea cool, then mix all ingredients together and freeze in a plastic container. When ready to serve, scoop into a glass. Garnish with pineapple chunks or a cherry on a toothpick, or mint.

  • Catch Hell Blues by The White Stripes & Tennessee Mud
    Another blues filled track, with a twist though, a Southern twist. à la Jack White… Amazing guitar, vocals at their best… Morning wake up tune that is.
    1 oz amaretto
    1/2 oz Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey
    6 oz coffee
    Serve in stemmed mug topped with whipped cream.

Picture Pick: Julie & Héloïse
