Nosferatu is a remake, or a reimagining of the classic film from the 1922 film, Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. It’s available to stream on Peacock, the 1922 version is available to watch on many streaming services for free. Watch the remake if you want to. I do have one spoiler in this episode, my bad, it’s not a big spoiler, just about two characters that die. Enjoy the podcast episode.

The Drop of Blood (tablemagazine.com):

Ingredients 

• 2 oz Vodka
• 1 oz Cointreau
• 2 oz White Grape Juice
• ½ oz Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice

Prep Directions

1. Prepare your garnish first by soaking rose petals in grenadine.
2. Allow those to soak until the petals abord some of the color.

Directions

1. Add ice to a cocktail shaker then add vodka, Cointreau, white grape, and lemon. Shake until frost forms on the outside of the shaker.
2. Double strain pour into a chilled Coupe glass.
3. Garnish with a petal by dripping the grenadine into the drink and dropping in the petal. The grenadine will fall to the bottom of the glass. This mimics a drop of blood.
