Well, we’ve come to the end of the first full week of this year’s blog challenge. We’ve had milder temperatures and a lot of sunshine this week. It isn’t exactly shorts weather, but I’ve managed to get out and get some fresh air each day. That’t the best it gets this year.
Before the pandemic, my husband and I were fortunate enough to do some traveling. One of those trips included two nights in Iceland on the way home, a trip that allowed us to see the land of the Midnight sun and so much more. I’ve included a tourism video for you to enjoy. Watching this video brings back great memories. It is my sincere hope to return and see more of this beautiful and incredible island country someday.
Today, the letter I brings you a cool beverage from Iceland, the Iceberg Paralyzer
If you like things on the sweet side, you’ll love this one, but it can be tricky to make. The key is the amount of ice you use. Not enough, and the drink will curdle.
Similar to a White Russian, but definitely Icelandic, and absolutely addictive. It isn’t calorie light either!
Make It Your Own
Ingredients
1 1/12 oz Icelandic vodka (There are several different types. Give them all a try!)
1 1/2 oz Kaluha,
Coca Cola
Milk
Mix It!
The key is following the directions to the letter!
Fill a tall glass right to the top with ice.
Add vodka and Kaluha.
Add Coca Cola up to about a half inch from the top. Make sure there is still plenty of ice above the top of the liquid.
Top with milk.
Use a metal bar spoon to slowly stir and blend the ingrdients.
REMEMBER! You need the ice above the coke or the milk will curdle when mixed with the cola.
Enjoy the weekend. I’ll see you back here on Monday!
