Here are some cocktail recipes (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) to mix and sip while you listen!
A Chaotic Pairing for “The Great God Pan.”
In Greco-Roman mythology, Pan is the deity who represented chaos in nature and beyond, giving us the word “panic.” While we certainly don’t want to inspire panic, we think this Pan-inspired cocktail may help subside it a bit.
1 maraschino cherry
For “The Adventure of the Egyptian Tomb”
Try these Agatha Christie inspired drinks while you listen to the show! Whether you imbibe or not, these are sure to stimulate your “little grey cells”– à la vôtre!
A generous pinch of coarse sea salt
In a double-broiler over medium heat, stir half-in-half and grated chocolate until the chocolate is melted. Add milk and stir until thoroughly heated.
In a small bowl, stir together remaining ingredients. When the milk is steaming, whisk in the dry ingredients. Continue gently whisking until the milk begins to thicken. Pour into your favorite cups and enjoy!
Poirot loved his tisanes (herbal teas), so feel free to settle in with a lovely spot of tea because, as Christie declares, “Coffee in England always tastes like a chemistry experiment.”
Pro-tip: Poirot preferred his “une tisane” with three spoonfuls of sugar because life is short.
And for those who imbibe, may we suggest The King Men-Her-Ra, featuring Poirot’s other favorite beverage Creme De Menthe!
30 ml Single Cream (or Heavy Cream for those of us not in the UK)
Pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker full of ice. Shake, pour, and solve some mysteries!
