THE GIN POM

Monday, October 24, 2016

As I write this I am singing the P!nk song, "Get this party started".  That is what this cocktail is; instant party starter in a glass.  

I made this drink and sent my Mum a photograph with a quick description of what is was.  I asked her for name suggestions.  Hilarity soon ensued as my Mum started sending me a list of truly ridiculous names.  Due to my use of Bulldog Gin my Mum seemed to go down a rather dog themed path and one of most awesome suggestions was "The Pink Dog Sh*t".  Would you order that?  Needless to say I made up a rather more subtle name that allows you to choose your own fabulous gin for this cocktail.  
 You need to have a really smooth and fabulous bottle of gin and stash it away in the freezer ready to make this drink.  I used fabulous Bulldog Gin but any other smooth and aromatically delicious gin will do.

 I love pomegranate.  It's the most festive fruit with all it's ruby jeweled glory.  I use the tried and tested wooden spoon whacking method to remove the seeds.  Simply cut the fruit in half and hold it seed side down in your hand with your fingers slightly apart to allow the seeds to fall.  Over a large plate, hit the back of the fruit with the spoon and the seeds will fall out easily.  It is a very satisfying process!
To make this drink simply add about 1 tsp pomegranate seeds into small shot glasses.  Spritz a little lemon in each glass and top with 1 shot of ice cold gin.  
To drink, tip everything into your mouth and very importantly, crunch the seeds in your mouth before you swallow the gin.  It's fresh, vibrant and utterly delicious.  

Guaranteed to get your party started with a bang!

My husband was so lovely and caring after 3 years of marriage he was seriously ill and the doctor confirm and said he has a kidney infection that he needed a kidney donor, that was how I start searching for who can help, doctor has given me a periodic hour that he will live just 24 hours left, that was how I ask the doctor if I can be of help to my husband that was how he carried out the text, the confirming was successful, I was now having this taught that since 3 years now we got married I have not be able to get pregnant can I be able to get bring again? That was the question I ask the doctor, he never answer his response was did you want to lost your husband? I immediately reply no I can't afford to lose him. After the operation my husband came back to live and was healthy I was also OK with the instruction given to me by the doctor, after 3 months my husband came home with another lady telling me, that is our new wife that will give us kids and take care of us, that was how I was confused and started crying all day, that was how my husband ran away with his new wife cleanable. Since then I was confuse don't know what to do that was how I went back to the doctor and tell him everything, he told me that, this is not just an ordinary it must be a spiritual problem that was how he gave me this Email: Ahmedutimate@gmail.com that I should tell he all my problem that he can help that was how i contacted he and I do as instructed.
