  • Bananas & Pigs

    Bananas & Pigs
    2023/02/23

    After a week off, the hardest working beefcakes in the drinks business slide back into the Pod saddle, digging their heels into some hard-nosed aural journalism and whipping up some searing investigative insight - namely the return of bananas to the UK in 1945 and. of course, National Pig Day (only America).

    Like beer? Like bananas? Well you'll flipping love Mongozo Banana Beer - available here or via Amazon here

    And how about A Pigs In Blanket Old Fashioned?

    Pigs in Blanket Old Fashioned

    Ingredients

    12 pigs in blanket

    70cl of Pork fat-washed whisky

    5ml Maple syrup

    2 dashes of Angostura Bitters

    To make the fat-wash whisky

    · Grill the pigs in blanket over a baking tray and collect 30ml of the fat.

    · Strain it into a container filled with 70cl of blended Scotch whisky. Leave it to steep in the whisky for 6-8 hours or overnight at room temperature before placing the bottle in the freezer.

    · Once the fat has congealed in the bottle, strain the bourbon into a new bottle.

    Method:

    · Take 40 ml pigs-in-blanket fat-infused whisky and stir in a mixing glass with the maple syrup and ice.

    · Add bitters and stir.

    · Strain into a child ‘Old Fashioned’ glass filled with ice. Garnish with an orange slice.. Or a pig-in-blanket

    While you're waiting for the pig fat to steep in the whisky, here's a video about pigs that play video games.
