Yesterday we tried something new, courtesy a rumour I heard about a unique cocktail they serve at a restaurant here in Kanpur. Some ingredients gathered from the Hall canteen, alongwith some freely acquired booze; the result was a cocktail that was surprisingly delightful! I'm sure the recipe and the description can be highly improved, but here's the exciting first draft, delivered by a man who's still, well, alive and happy.

How to make a Patiala Lassi:

(an abbreviation of its complete name: the Kanpuriya Patiala Scottish Lassi)









Ingredients:

60 ml Whiskey.
6 tablespoons Curd (Yoghurt).
4 teaspoons Sugar (or to taste).
30-50 ml Water.

Method:

Pour the whiskey and curd in a mixer. Mix on low speed till the curd forms a smooth paste with the whiskey. Add sugar, and water to thin the drink down to about half the consistency. A high amount of sugar is necessary to counter the bitterness of curd and whiskey. Mix well and serve with 2 ice cubes. Enjoy the hangover the next day.
