Dear Drinkers,

Once again, it is time to honor one of the supporters of our dear friend, Spock. When they heard the call, they answered. Which is keeping in the overall personality for this honoree. She’s eccentric, but then, it doesn’t seem like anyone who travels around like she does avoids a little eccentricity. She might be a touch overly amorous, but that just means she’s got love to spare, and love’s a coin all too rare, today.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It’s Doctor Dimension!

This Time Traveller might be on the younger end of things from where she originates, but that still puts her well past the legal age here, and easily able to enjoy the drink that The Pony Keg has concocted to honor this dedicated and devoted feline supporter.

A Doctor Dimension

Ingredients:

2oz Irish Whiskey

1oz Simple Syrup

1/2oz Orange Juice

1/2oz Lemon Juice

Ice

1/2oz Red Wine (A Shiraz is suggested.)

Chilled Rocks Glass

Special Equipment:

A Cocktail Shaker. A Spoon

Making a Doctor Dimension.

Put Ice into Shaker.

Put Simple Syrup over Ice

Pour Whiskey over Simple Syrup.

Shake!

Place ice in glass.

Strain shaker into glass.

Pour red wine over back of spoon, VERY GENTLY, VERY SLOWLY, to float it on the top of the drink.

Drink!

You’ve just finished making a Doctor Dimension!

Our dear Honoree has a couple of aspects I wanted to capture here. One was a love, on her part, of Red Wine. This can make the cocktail choice tricky, as wine-inclusive cocktails are ones I’ve always found to be more difficult to craft. Thankfully, her Irish Heritage suggested a solution to me, and produced the drink you see before you.

Dear Drinkers,

We come to another of the drinks designed in honor of those supporting our dear Spock’s GoFundMe! This Service-minded Patriot spends his days fixing up Aerial Cav., and his nights drinking with the guys. Here at The Pony Keg, we appreciate this kind of Service, and, moreover, appreciate that kind of Drinker.~

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It’s Saber!

An Army Helicopter Maintenance Worker, This guy is driven by the rectitude of his convictions, and his devotion to his compatriots. For those factors, and for helping a cat in need, The Pony Keg honors him.

Chilled Wine Glass

Special Equipment:

Pour Citron over Cognac

Pour juice over Citron

Drink!

You’ve just finished making a Saber Rattler! (Based on Saber)

The drink this is based upon, according to legend, originated back in WWI, among American Pilots, there, fighting, prior to America’s Entry into the war. Those Americans took the basic cocktail, and added Cognac to it, thereby ramping up the alcoholic content to a more American Palette. Those original pilots compared it to being hit by a 75mm cannon. My version increases that content yet again, while balancing the acidity, to help mask its effects. I think that’ll just about do for Armored Cav.~

Dear Drinkers,

It’s been a while. How are you all doing? Staying busy? Were you holidays as joyful and restful as they could be? Ready to face 2017 with a renewed sense of grit and determination?

Well, today’s honoree knows a little bit about grit and determination. She’s had to use quite a bit of it throughout her life, in order to reach where she is today. But, through vigor, and perseverance, and an ironclad knowledge of who she is, she’s not only managed to earn a place among The Pony Keg’s Honorees, but to be the first in the “Donate $50 to Save Spock And Get A Rusty Nail Recipe” beneficiaries.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It’s Star Struck! (Star Struck’s Mod Link)

She’s managed to make it to where she stands today, and where she’s standing is, frankly, Fabulous.

You’ve just finished making a Star Struck! (Star Struck’s Mod Link)

This drink is garnished in an overwhelmingly over-the-top “Girly-Drink” fashion, as much as I hate to use that denotation, echoing Star Struck’s own usual personal presentation. The drink itself is based off of a recipe that is named after a key section of Star Struck’s own personal development.~
