How to Register to Vote (or Check Your Registration)
Deadlines to register to vote are coming up at the end of October. Luckily, the US government put all the information about voting in one place. If you’re not registered, or you’re not sure about your registration, go to vote.gov. They’ll break it down for you by state, since every state is a little different. Also, make sure you share with people in your life who might need it information provided about how to vote with a disability, or how to vote while unhoused. Also, make sure all of your voting information is up to date, so when you do slip the form in that ballot box, or mail it in, your vote gets counted for sure!
If you live in Pennsylvania, check this article for state-specific instructions.
Register to Vote, Then Drink This Cocktail: The Ballot Box
Ingredients
- 12 oz of your favorite American whiskey
- 4.5 oz of lemon juice
- 4.5 oz of simple syrup
- 5.25 oz of whole milk
Instructions
- Add whiskey, lemon juice, and simple syrup to a mixing glass and give it a few stirs to fully incorporate.
- Pour milk into a separate mixing glass (Make sure it is at least 1/4 the total volume of your batch).
- Slowly pour the cocktail into the milk.
- Allow to sit for between 30 minutes and 8 hours (in fridge).
- When the milk has been curdled by the citrus and you see a break in the milk slowly pour through a coffee filter or cheesecloth in a funnel.
- The first 1/3 of the filtered mixture will likely be more cloudy – add that amount to the liquid passing through the filter.
- If the first pass through the coffee filter is a little cloudy, filter again for clearer results.
- Pour 2 – 3oz into your favorite rocks glass and add a large ice cube.
- Express an orange or lemon twist over the cocktail.
- Enjoy! Store the remainder of your clarified cocktail in the fridge for up to several weeks.
