Ocean City New Jersey to be precise. It's a beach town, as one might guess by the name. Unfortunately for me, I'm not really much of a beach person but it's good for relaxation.
Ocean City also happens to be a dry county, but that didn't stop my sister Shanta and I from making these!
Fishing For Swedes Martini
Ingredients:
1 shot glass of Pinnacle Gummy Vodka
7 Up
2 swedish fish
Directions:
Combine the vodka and the seven up. Add the Fish. Drink your worries away!
This makes a pretty good party drink too! I'd put the swedish fish on some toothpicks and eat them out first, they tend to get a little manky when they sit in liquid for a long time!
I made a very bad video! I'm hoping my future videos will be much nicer...
However! For those at home following along, here's the recipe in non-moving form:
Silly Drunk Soybeans
Ingredients:
1 medium onion, sliced into slivers
1/2 cup craisins soaking in 1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 box so soya chicken strips (or tofu, or seitan if you aren't GF)
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into chunks
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 plantain, peeled and sliced (if you can't find a plantain, use a potato!)
1 cup slivered almonds
1 generous cup mushrooms, sliced
3-4 tbsp oil of your choice
1 cup carrots, chopped
1 cup vegetable broth
1 cup tequila (does not need to be good quality, haha)
Rice and Cilantro to garnish, if desired
Directions
Heat the oil in a pan on high. Add in the mushrooms, garlic, and onions, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until onions are nice and transluscent.
Soak the soy strips in the broth, and set aside.
In the pan, add the carrots, apples, almonds, and plantains. Mix well, and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Turn the heat down to medium. Add in the craisins with their broth, the soy strips with their broth, and the tequila. Stir to mix everything together, cover, and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Uncover, and turn heat to low. Cook for another 10 minutes or so, until liquid is pretty well absorbed.
Serve with rice, and garnish with cilantro if desired!
