Black And Tan Mocktail Recipes

Steps:

• Pour the ginger ale and ginger beer into a chilled pilsner glass(or any glass you like). Do not stir, but do enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the cordial: In a medium bowl, combine the lime zest, sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, pepper and cloves. Use your fingers to rub the zest and spices into the sugar until the sugar is green and very fragrant. Slowly pour in the lime juice, whisking to combine and dissolve the sugar completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, up to 24. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve; pressing on the solids. (You should have about 1½ cups cordial.) Discard the solids, and keep the cordial in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Make the chilled black tea: In a tea kettle or small saucepan over high heat, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the tea. Allow to steep for 10 minutes, then remove the tea bags or, if using loose-leaf tea, strain through a fine-mesh sieve and set aside to cool completely, then refrigerate. Keep it chilled in the refrigerator, tightly covered in an airtight container, for up to 5 days.
• Make the cocktail: Fill a highball glass with ice. Add the tea and cordial. Top with ginger beer, stir gently to combine and finish with a lime wedge.

Steps:

• At least 10 hours before you want to serve this, brew 8 oz. of strong chocolate-dessert coffee. Chill it. This would be best if made 24 hours in advance as it will bring out the chocolate flavor.
• Mix liquid caramel creamer with 1 drop of dark molasses. Mix well. Fold in the thawed Cool Whip.
• Put the coffee in a pilsner glass. Carefully spoon on the creamer mixture. Do not mix.
• Put the seltzer into something that will allow you to pour a very fine thin stream of it quickly (e.g., a measuring cup with a lip). Put the seltzer in the middle of the drink, pouring it as finely yet quickly as you can. It should lift and sparkle the whole drink. Do not mix.
• Put the licorice stick in; use it as a straw to drink the liquid if desired.
• Serve.

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and position a rack in the middle. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan.
• Pour the batter into the baking pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a rack.
• To assemble the black & tans: Invert the cooled cake onto a work surface and cut it into 6 equal rectangles. Cut each rectangle into squares about the size of ice cubes. Set out six Pilsner or similar glasses. Put 2 rounded scoops of ice cream into each glass. Divide the cake cubes evenly among the glasses, then add 1/2 scoop of ice cream to each glass, mounding it slightly in the center. Top with softly whipped cream to look like the frothy head on a pint of stout, allowing a drip to edge over the side. Serve immediately.
• Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt onto a piece of waxed paper or into a medium bowl.
• With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the oil, beating well. Beat in the egg, then the vanilla. On low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 batches, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients, scraping down the sides of the bowl and mixing just until the batter is smooth.
