Vegan Black Lentil Paté

One of my favorite, and very simple dishes that feels fancy, but is quite reasonably priced to make. (I.e., cheap!)

Black Lentil Paté Recipe

That’s it! Smash or blend to your desired texture.

I like it served with toast points and a side of steamed asparagus spears…delicious and light but filling…

The BUS (Bad Urine Sample)

Image of Bad Urine Sample

Easy, tasty shot with a horrible name. (Don’t ask.)

Like PBJ ice cream … made out of whiskey.

Simple ingredients:

1.5 oz Skrewball™ Peanut Butter Whiskey (From the freezer!)

.5 oz Haering Cherry Liquour or Luxardo Cherry Liquor

Pour the Skrewball™ into the shot. Gently add the cherry liquor and it settles on the bottom of the glass. Done!

CorpseBoy’s preferred simple syrup

Corpseboy's Cocktails

Hey, Martha Stewart gets many things right: one is simple syrup. CorpseBoy also uses a 1:1 ratio for consistent sweetening.

Gently bring one cup of sugar and one cup of water to a boil until sugar has dissolved. (I use a cup of already hot water from my glorious Zojirushi water dispenser. This way it takes virtually no time at all.) Remove from heat and let cool completely before using. After cooling, I then seal it in a mason jar for longevity.

Corpseboy's Cocktails

A Bobby Burns cocktail made, well, with a scotch whisky that some of my friends would say should not be anywhere near a cocktail…until they’ve tried this one.

1.5oz Laphroaig
1oz Dolin Rouge
.5oz Benedectine
2 dashes each of angostura and peychauds bitters

Gently add the ingredients to ice and stir, then strain and serve up.
