“It’s okay for kids since the alcohol cooks off.”
“Could you include the instructions to recover the alcohol for freepers like me? :){”
Well, the alcohol evaporates from the top of the pot, so stand over the pot and breathe deeply.
I buy cheap bourbon for this, those smaller bottles (were those called “pints” long ago?) and a cup doesn’t take all the whiskey. I’m looking at one I got out of the pantry from the last time I made this and it’s 375 ml, and there’s two inches of bourbon left in the bottle. If I could send it through email to you, I’d send you the two inches.
So, when you make it you will have bourbon left over, so drink it while you hang your head over the top of the pot - maybe both things will make you mellow.
You know I was pokin fun.... just alerting the bourbon ping list to this travesty.
