Ja Nee Nisonger, a Los Angeles bartender, crafts a New York tiger mixed drink in this video from Mahalo. She describes the ingredients needed, the preparation method and taste of the drink. This mixed drink guide is part of a larger series of videos offered on the Mahalo.com YouTube channel.
Step 1: Collect Ingredients and Supplies
Obtain a cocktail glass, a stainless steel shaker glass, ice, Jack Daniels Tennessee whiskey, triple sec and grenadine syrup. Unless you have a feel for pouring the correct amounts of liquids, you will also need a measuring glass.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtqDbpqo-y0
Step 2: Measure and Combine Ingredients
Fill you shaker glass with ice and allow it to chill. Measure 1 1/2 ounces of Jack Daniels whiskey and pour it into the shaker glass. Next, measure 1/2 ounce of triple sec and pour it on top of the whiskey. Add a dash of grenadine syrup, or about 1/2 ounce.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtqDbpqo-y0
Step 3: Mix Drink
Place strainer and top on your shaker glass. Shake mixture about 18 times. Take off the top and strain liquid into a martini glass. Your New York tiger is now ready to serve.
