How to make a “Quarantini” social distancing cocktail while #StayingAtHome

There are new interesting ways to boost your immune system and get a little fun in while staying at home to avoid the pandemic.

With our social lives being redefined by Zoom meetings, and all the regular bars and restaurant haunts close. closed. The emergence of the emergen”C” quarantini has become the social distancing rage.

In a tweet last Thursday that quickly racked up more than 17,600 likes. authors Derel Brown told his 15,600 followers to send him their at-home ingredients and he’d send them drink recipes.

“That’s one of the best things we can do to spend our time in any situation, especially a pandemic,” says 45-year-old Derek Brown, author of “Spirits, Sugar, Water, Bitters: How the Cocktail Conquered the World” and owner of the Washington, DC, cocktail bar Columbia Room.

Here’s his version of a Quarantini that can be made with common at-home drink ingredients.

  • 1½ to 2 ounces of a not-necessarily-sweet base spirit, like vodka or gin — or another of your choice
  • ¾ ounce of citrus (such as lemon or lime juice), whose vitamin C is great for immunity
  • ½ to ¾ ounce of simple syrup to sweeten things up. (Simple syrup, as its name suggests, is simple to make. Just boil equal parts sugar and water until they liquefy together.)

And then there is the good old use what you straight up emergence “C” version.

VODKA QUARANTINI

Magdalene Taylor, Editorial AssistantI tried to go the route of a traditional martini, but in order to be consumable, it needed a few extra details. As such, beyond the Emergen-C, of course (I, too, went with the Super Orange flavor), the final product consisted of:

  • Ice (because fuck you if you think a drink shouldn’t have ice)
  • Two ounces of my favorite plastic-bottle vodka (Vodka of the Gods)
  • A splash of seltzer
  • A heavy dash of lime juice

All things considered, it was way fancier than any drink I’d normally mix at home. And better yet, to my surprise, it was very drinkable. Say you took a gamble and ordered an orange-y martini at a restaurant. If this came out, you wouldn’t be thrilled, but you wouldn’t feel entirely like you wasted $12 either. In fact, I made a second round with the remaining packet. Notably, however, I did have to take a 7 p.m. nap afterward. But I’d do it again!

An just in case you’re looking for a little quarantine entertainment inspiration with Quarantini in hand. Chin Chin and a cheer!
