I was quite keen to try the chilli beers but they didn’t do it for me. I’m sure they were nice but all beer based but I’m a dedicated lager lout.
I also got stung by a wasp whilst chatting with Tim from the Cambridge Chilli Farm. I did get a jar of his Nagalade and [...]

I made a chilli cocktail and cracked open @ThomasinaMiers cookery book

A generous shot of White Rum or Cahaca mixed with chopped up chilli’s, castor sugar and lime juice. You can add crushed ice and drink it like this but I mixed mine with refreshing soda water as it was only 5:30 and I don’t want to peak too early.
Refreshing with a mild kick.
Onto Thomasina Miers [...]

Rum with a chilli kick

If you’ve never tried this try it. It gets addictive one you get used to the heat, it’s also good for giving to teenagers to stop them pestering you for booze.

My new greenhouse heater, genius (maybe)
April 25th, 2010 · No Comments · Drinking with Chilli's, General Chilliness
The theory is at night it adds warmth to the greenhouse and cools the beer. In the daytime heat it shouldn’t do much and as it’s insulated the beer should remain cool. The more beer that goes through the fridge the more heat it chucks out.
The fridge is a bit shit to be fair (hence [...]

Last nights chilli margarita
January 24th, 2010 · No Comments · Drinking with Chilli's
Normally I’d leave the chilli’s soaking for at least a few days in my chosen bottle of booze, but last night I made one without soaking.
Some chopped chilli’s I got from Pho Cafe.
It wasn’t that hot but my lips felt it. I’ve had some soaking for 24 hours which I’ll try shortly.

Spice jars and Chilli Margaritas

I spotted these spcie jars on my travels.
I enquired where to buy them and was diected to Pages on Shaftesbury Avenue. They stock lots of catering stuff if that’s your thing. I liked my spice jars and bought some but this Margarita Salt caught my eye, you can’t buy these in Berko Waitrose.
This year I [...]

So I store them for later.
In booze.
Dried out in tupperware.
In the fridge.
In Olive Oil.
In the freezer.
Last year I pickled some in malt vinegar, I expect I will again.

Chilli Mojitos
September 7th, 2008 · No Comments · Drinking with Chilli's
Weeks ago I chillified a bottle of Cachaca, a Brazilian cane alcohol usually used to make Caiprinhas and Mojitos.
I started Friday evening with a hot chilli Mojito it was very nice but took longer to drink than a normal one, I guess that can be considered a good thing.
To make one cut a lime into [...]
