The Chilly Spider

Hi, WFDM!

Sorry to be so absent from this blog--I haven't been cooking that much "new" stuff, and I've been focused on my dog blog. (Shameless plug!) Also, I'm pretty sure that I started my last WFDM post like this. Ah well.

Anyway, "The Chilly Spider" is the name that my pal Caitlin and I gave a drink we (well, mostly Caitlin) concocted the other night. I rarely--if ever--deviate from a recipe, much less create my own, but Caitlin went for it and this is the result!

Some sort of fizzy water (we used a lemon La Croix, but I'm sure seltzer or tonic would be good, too)
Whiskey! (We used Jameson)
Ginger (we used powder, but fresh would undoubtedly be better/more flavorful)
Cointreau
Star anise (the spider!)
Agave nectar

Measure how you like (er, to taste) and mix it all up! Add ice!
