Do you think any amateur could handle a drink like this?

Amour-propre Effervesce | Fizz, Floral, Fandom

Suletta wouldn’t drink, but Guel Jeturk would despite, imo, probably not enjoying the taste of alcohol. However, there’s a classic cocktail that's PERFECT for that -- the Ramos Gin Fizz, which I retemplated to include both an interesting purple sweetener and several layers of floral flavors including rose, with a glorious fluffy crown worthy of the Dilanza’s feather. The floral layers and variety of aromatics feels distinctly appropriate in G Witch, especially for a character like Guel. 

However, the Ramos Gin Fizz isn’t for the Miorines of the cocktail world; it requires some careful prep, and takes a lot of upper arm strength and time shaking. So much like Guel had some... mechanical assistance imposed on him, we’re going to use a great hack established by famous cocktail bar Death & Co. We are going to use a whipped cream dispenser and force-nitro the cocktail to emulsify and foam up, without the hellish amount of shaking. However,  it’s important to follow these instructions carefully.

Note: Alternate creams/vegan foaming agents may not provide the desired effect, due to the importance of the proteins in both the cream and the egg white. If you want to make this a mocktail, you can use your favorite tea in place of gin and omit the creme de violette. 

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: A Whipped-Cream Dispenser and Nitrous Oxide cartridges(8grm). These don’t need to be industrial grade, iSi whippers -- As long as its not the style marketed as the “Easywhip” with the spout right on top, look below for an example of the shape it should be. These can be bought online, or at culinary supply stores, or your local tobacco/vape shop or adult novelty store. Please DO NOT POINT TOWARDS SELF OR OTHERS WHILE SCREWING IN THE GAS CANISTER, AND ALIGN THE THREADING ON THE CANISTER HOLDER CAREFULLY TO MINIMIZE RISK OF VENTING COLD GAS FROM AN IMPROPER PUNCTURE. 

Step 1: Place serving glass in freezer. 

Step 2. Place the following ingredients in your whipped cream dispenser. 

2 fl oz or 60ml Gin 

0.5 fl oz or 15 ml Lemon Juice

0.5 fl oz or 15 ml Lime Juice

1 Dropper Bittermens Orange Cream Citrate*

.75ml Old Forester Hummingbird Rose & Citrus Bitters [or 2 dashes preferred floral bitters]

0.33 fl oz or 10ml Creme de Violette

1 fl oz or 30ml Blueberry Puree Syrup (I used Reál) 

1 Egg White or 20ml liquid pasteurized egg white

0.75 fl oz or 22.5 ml Heavy Cream

1 drop Orange Blossom Water

1 drop Rosewater

*You can substitute 1 dash orange bitters[Angostura Orange preferable] and 3 drops vanilla extract if necessary or just omit

Have glass ready to receive. 

Add a couple ice cubes and screw on cap tightly. Take 1 8 gram nitrous oxide charger. Common brands include Whip-Its, Bestwhip, and Leland. Insert charger into holder and screw in until you hear it vent into the dispenser.  Give it a few gentle shakes. 

Add about half an ounce of chilled seltzer or soda water to the bottom of frozen glass.  Turn whip cream dispenser so spout is directly facing down and gently -- GENTLY -- press the lever to release. It should take about a minute or so to mostly fill the glass.

After filling or mostly filling the glass, let sit for 2-4 minutes, ideally in freezer. Then make small divot  in foam and slowly pour in about .5-1 ounces or so of soda water. The foam should rise and not collapse if properly made and a straw inserted should stand up straight. 

Lastly, if you desire, as a little nod to Guel’s iconic look, use an atomizer or spray bottle to spritz Peychaud’s bitters on top of the foam. Serve with a spoon to enjoy all the foam. 

Credit is due to Death & Co for originating the nitro-Gin-Fizz, David Wondrich’s Imbibe for all I could ever want or need to know about Fizzes, and this Cocktail Contessa Mocktail for the blueberry syrup inspiration.

I think three things ultimately frustrate me about the "you should care about poorly written women" argument.

First: there's well-written women. There's plenty. I'm going to find them, actually, and leave this badly written stuff behind, and maybe the writer will do a better job next time.

Second: you get people passionately defending poorly written women in old favorites in wildly regressive ways. Like just admit LOTR has like 5 named women and only two really do anything. Stop forcing a progressive label it doesn't deserve. Tolkien is dead and isn't going to become a feminist posthumously so deal with the story as it is instead of trying to justify it. They're not well written! It's fine.

Third: you get the argument that people are more accepting of poorly written men. This is almost certainly true but you can't control a fandom, so bringing this up is mostly a waste of time. What you can do is ignore poorly written men even harder than poorly written women. Mourn the women's squandered potential and pretend the poorly written men don't exist and then find works with well written women like I said in step 1.

We are excited to announce Deatheater focused fanworks exchange. In this case fic between 500-3,000 words, art, podfics, and meta are all welcome.

We are looking at using transformative works to consider the impact of being a Deatheater, this might include putting canonical Deatheaters into muggle AUs, for example Barty and Bella as political speechwriters trying to get Voldemort elected, or considering what happens if a non-Deatheater character pledges themselves to Voldemort, for example how does Jily look if Lily is a half-blood who ends up sorted in Slytherin alongside Snape and joins the Deatheaters?

Want to explore the morally ambiguous aspects of Harry Potter Characters, then this is the exchange for you.

You can choose characters and ships from across all the eras of Harry Potter canon.

Sign up will be via the ao3 collection, where you can also read the full rules

Want to discuss what you might prompt or ask any questions, then join our discord server (it’s 18+ and definitely not always safe for work)

love it when people are so slippery slope pilled that under every discourse about censorship someone will inevitably go "ok but what if someone made birth of a nation 2 and reestablished the kkk" when it could not be more obvious that the original poster's statement was just like. About a teenager's underage bakudeku fic or something

(image descriptions in alt text)

Walnut Mist (Jamie) 2oz Nocino walnut liqueur, 1oz white rum, 4oz Sierra Mist*, served on the rocks, garnished with chocolate shavings for Roy and a raspberry for Keeley

Love The Pink (Keeley) 1oz vodka, 1/2oz coconut cream, 1/2oz Torani raspberry syrup, 1/2oz water, shaken with ice and strained, garnished with chocolate shavings for Roy and a walnut** for Jamie

Dark Heather Charcoal (Roy) 4oz dark beer (stout or porter), 2oz Ballotin Caramel Turtle chocolate whiskey, dash of blackstrap bitters, scoop of vanilla ice cream, garnished with a raspberry for Keeley and a walnut** for Jamie

*Sierra Mist was apparently rebranded as "Starry" a few months ago but I'm leaving it because the mist is key to the concept **sshhh yes it's pecans in the pictures, I thought I had walnuts on hand but I didn't

A drink is never decided by quality of the ingredients alone. Nor by the skill of the bartender, alone. The result itself is the only truth!

Suletta Smash | 0% ABV*  |  Smashes, Low/No Citrus, Low/Zero ABV/Mocktail, Long Drinks 

In shaker, combine

3-5 torn basil leaves (mint also works if you can’t get basil)

1.33 fl oz or 40ml Tomato Shrub (see below) 

4 fl oz or 120ml Calpico Original Flavor

.5 fl oz or 15ml Bay Leaf infused syrup

Shake together and doublestrain through fine mesh strainer to get the little bits of herb out. Strain into double old fashioned glass with large rock of ice. 

For presentation, take a small amount of cheap, bright-red storebought grenadine and sink it down the side of the glass to get the ombre. 

Top carefully with a small amount of seltzer. Then, pull a lemon twist over the top(discard this piece) and dash a float of Peychaud’s or other Creole-style bitters over top. You can cut the iconic ‘v’ garnish and place before or after doing this depending on what kind of visual effect you want -- clean, or a little splattered. A mix of Angostura and Peychaud’s also works well.

*Note that while most bitters brands contain alcohol, the amount in a float is less than a teaspoon. it’s roughly as alcoholic as using vanilla extract in whipped cream is in the grand scheme of things. However, you can also use 0% ABV brands that use a different base for their suspensions like Fee Brothers, who I believe makes a Creole-style bitter. I’m not sure how it compares colorwise to Peychaud’s though.  

Tomato Shrub recipe: Macerate equal amounts of chopped-up tomato of choice and sugar for 12-24 hours, then strain out solids. Per every cup(8 fl oz) of liquid you get, use about 2/3rds cup(5.3 fl oz) white balsamic or champagne vinegar. Bottle and store in fridge. This will last a pretty long time if you don’t open it frequently. I made this batch in August, opened it only a once or twice and it’s’ doing peachy in January. Well, tomato-y. Preserving fresh products in just such a manner as this is probably important in the colonies of Gundam & places like Asticassia!

Spencer had been the first to know when Hugo had passed.

Hugo was your 17-year-old brown tabby cat, who'd been with you since you were a kid.

When you moved out on your own, your parents had even let you take him with you, seeing as they knew he was your best friend, above any human.

And Spencer knew this fact. One of the first things that was established when he asked you to be his girlfriend was that Hugo was the sole most important thing in your life. He was like your child, almost like your soulmate (if cats could have soulmates)

So when you called him, your voice thick with tears, and said, "Hugo's gone," his heart began to ache along with yours.

He became a little extra clingy in the weeks that followed Hugo's death, his silent way of telling you he was right there if and when you needed him.

You slowly eased into your new routine, though life didn't get any easier when you came home and spotted his old toys sticking out from underneath the sofa or when you remembered his food bowl in the corner of the kitchen.

Little did you know, Spencer had the perfect idea to cheer you up.

He'd been in talks with Penelope and Emily to see if Sergio's breeder had any kittens available, and when the breeder finally contacted Spencer, his heart nearly melted when he found out there was one left.

It turned out to be a little girl, pitch black with tiny, white paws and the smallest patch of white on her belly, and green eyes that rivaled an emerald.

He nearly begged you to let him and Penelope come over after work that day. You can't say you didn't have your suspicions on why he was so adamant about both of them visiting that night, but you reluctantly agreed, nearly sobbing as you cleaned up the last of Hugo's things before they arrived.

Penelope drove, leaving Spencer to hold the kitten, the pink blanket he'd bought for her nearly swallowing the tiny thing.

The two made their way into your apartment, and as soon as you spotted the bundle in Spencer's arms, you knew.

That son of a bitch (affectionate)

Soft mews sounded from the blanket as her head popped up, her eyes landing directly on you.

Spencer nearly cried when he saw you crack a smile for the first time in a month.

You took the tiny kitten from his hands, nuzzling her against your chest.

"She's so little!" you squeaked, rubbing tiny circles on her back with the pad of your thumb.

He nodded. "She's the runt so she'll most likely always be on the smaller side," he told you.

"What do you wanna name her?"

His cheeks lit up. "Me?"

"Yeah. She's gonna be yours too. We'll co-parent. Better yet, we'll just move in together and share her all the time."

Spencer couldn't say he hadn't thought about it. He loved the idea of waking up next to you, the kitten curled up at the foot of the bed.

"Well, what were you thinking?" he asked, scratching at the nape of his neck.

"Hmmm, maybe something similar to Hugo? In honor of him?"

He racked his brain for ideas, but nothing seemed accurate. Harriette? Helena? Some other fancy name that starts with H?

But then, it clicked. All of his PhDs and years of training had finally paid off.

"Well, Hugo means intelligent. We could give her a name that means the same as his name."

The room stayed silent as the both of you thought, though you weren't too familiar with many names that had that meaning.

"Ooh, I got one!" Penelope squealed, a smile overtaking her lips. "Ramona! It means wise!"

"Do I wanna know-" Spencer started.

"Look, I have a lot of free time. I like to look up what our unsubs names mean to know how truly cursed they are."

You both giggled at her explanation before looking back down at the tiny bundle of raven-colored fur in your hands.

"Do you like that name? Ramona?" you cooed, scratching at her chin.

She purred, the first Spencer had heard since they'd picked her up from the breeder.

"I think that's a yes," he smiled.

Coming back from hibernation to tell you about a song that reminds me so much of the ineffable husband during S2E6 it’s abysmal

It’s in my native language but it’s basically about someone begging their lover not to go since they knew each other for so long and they would go on their knees (the song title) for them to stay. This is SO CROWLEY CODED AHHHHH
