This winter you can sip through the holidays with warm cocktails from these DC-area restaurants;
The second of a two part look at who's offering great winter cocktails.
1789 Restaurant, located in a historic Federal townhouse at 1226 36th Street, NW, 20007, will showcase a warm cocktail this winter, a
Hot Buttered Rum, (pictured above) which is made from a combination of brown butter-infused rum, warm spiced apple cider, cinnamon and whipped cream. For something creamy and festive, try the
Classic Eggnog. Executive Chef Samuel Kim combines
whole milk, heavy cream, and egg yolks to dry ingredients:
sugar, rum extract, nutmeg, almond extract, cloves, guar guam and Lambda Carrageenan.
The mixture is then prepared sous-vide by placing it in a zip-close bag
before being submerged into an immersion circulated water bath. The
eggnog is cooked at 162 Fahrenheit for ten minutes and given a good stir
before cooking for another ten minutes. The cocktail is then served
chilled and topped with freshly grated nutmeg. Both cocktails are
priced at $13, and will be available
December 1-31, 2016.
