Le Vieux Carre Cocktail

"This is a signature drink of the Monteleone Hotel in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Their carousel lounge rotates slowly around the bar, so it's hard to tell if you get dizzy from the ride, or the drink."

  1. Getting peychaud's bitters is harder in Pennsylvania than it is in New Orleans, but it's worth the effort and cost (hint: amazon.com!). Easy to make, wonderful tasting and fabulous looking cocktail. Yes, you should limit yourself, unless you want the room spinning ... but sometimes, it's worth it!! Made for Groovy Gastronomes, ZWT5 ... thanks so much for posting! Photos can be found at http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?p=4644569#4644569

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I work in the lab of a large county hospital. Cooking, particularly exotic ethnic cuisines and fancy desserts is my therapy and stress relief. Being a geeky kind of person, I'm really into the science of food. I'm getting into playing cooking games and contests on 'Zaar. Why not come play with us? It's lots of fun. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/teambanner1.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/babes_banner.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSCParticipationBanner.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/ParticipationBanner.jpg"border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/Dollar%20Contest/DiningonaDollarParticipant.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/banner2009.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"width=100%> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/craze-e2banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/calendar%20clips/3Craze-E.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
