CommunityData:Meetup December 2020/Cocktail hour

From CommunityData

I'm going to be making a series of community data scientific cocktails and mocktails.

I've listed the night's (afternoon's?) menu below here from easiest to most difficult. There are four drinks including one non-alcoholic drink (marked EtOH-free).

If you planning on making drinks with me, you'll probably need to shop for ingredients. My advice it to chose what you want have and shop just for that drink. Or just bring a beer or glass of wine a cup of tea to watch, chat, learn, and hang out!

Cocktail 1: Snake Fight [Easiest]

Ingredients:

  • 6 oz IPA [Something local!]
  • 1½ oz Campari

You'll want to prepare ahead of time by...

Assembling your tools including:

  • Something to pour your drink into! I recommend a lowball/DOF glass
  • Something to measure your ingredients with
  • Ice!

Cocktail 2: Not a typewriter [EtOH-free]

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz Lemon juice
  • 1 ¼ oz Rosemary simple syrup
  • 3 oz sparkling water

Optional ingredients (if you're not into the whole EtOH-free thing):
