Lieu : MNjcc Zoom Meeting

Description :

Sneak into the "bais-meant" for reflections on silence and speech, prohibition and permission in Jewish art. In this discussion, you're licensed to be loquacious and learned or learning. If you’re not a temperance leaguer, feel free to mix yourself a kosher-style cocktail (see recipe below for ideas!) and drink in some learning, speak-easy style.

The Shavuot Sour by Aaron Goldfarb 

Accord­ing to Deut. chap­ter 8, “For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of foun­tains and depths, spring­ing forth in val­leys and hills; a land of wheat and bar­ley, and vines and fig-trees and pome­gran­ates; a land of olive-trees and hon­ey” and Shavuot was the first day on which indi­vid­u­als could bring these Bikkurim (first fruits) to the Tem­ple in Jerusalem. This cock­tail brings the Bikkurim too, with a wheat­ed bour­bon, the grape-based brandy cognac, as well as fig pre­serves and hon­ey for a sweet­en­er. For indi­vid­u­als not want­i­ng to use egg whites, sub­sti­tute aqua faba, or just skip that ingre­di­ent altogether. 

 

1 oz wheat­ed bour­bon (look for Mak­er’s Mak­er, Weller, or Larceny) 

1 oz cognac 

1 oz fresh-squeezed lemon juice 

0.25 oz honey 

1 tea­spoon fig preserve 

egg white 

 

Add ingre­di­ents to a cock­tail shak­er, with­out ice, and shake vig­or­ous­ly. Now add ice and shake again. Strain into a rocks glass with one large ice cube.
