At we have a bad ass gardener named Trish. She cultivates the land and plants tons of fab herbs, flowers, fruits and interesting ingredients we utilize on a daily basis in all our kitchens and behind the stick. Currently it’s bursting with fresh lavender, thyme, rosemary, flowers, lemon verbena, mint, and lots of other beauties. ⠀
::⠀
If you’re you’re joining us for dinner at and you order a cocktail or a clean beverage chances are you’ll be getting one of these in your drink. Hope to see you soon! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

My buddy Thomas sent me a photo a couple weeks into and I immediately posted it. The quote said this: “The ONLY time service industry workers are finally all off together and guess what... WE STILL CAN’T HANG OUT WITH EACH OTHER!”⠀
:: ⠀
If any of your friends work in this community you know their Friday nights are not usually the same as your Friday nights. The days they're off on an actual Friday can often be counted on one hand for any given year. So we tend to try and fit it in when we can, which often means kicking it after our shift. ⠀

This was one of those nights. ⠀

Creating an elevated experience while in mode doesn’t need to be complicated. I like spirits in all shapes, sizes, colors, and ages, but one that I always like to have on Ready Five is -- this is the base of our house old fashioned at Avant Restaurant at and a whiskey I like to drink alone or in a variety of cocktails. ⠀
::⠀
Below is the recipe we use and the way we make it, but I will share more details at the bottom on how to adjust based on your own at-home ingredients ⠀
::⠀
Scroll -->⠀
1) Woodsman with large branded clear ice⠀
2) Kikori Whiskey used in our large batch of the Woodsman cocktail. The cocktail is added to Gold Flasks which we pour tableside.⠀
3) Gold Flasks filled with our Woodsman cocktail at Avant.⠀
::⠀
Woodsman⠀
2 Dashes Orange Bitters⠀
1/4 oz Jasmine Lemongrass Syrup*⠀
2 oz Kikori Whiskey⠀
::⠀
Prep: Stirred⠀
Glass: Double Old Fashioned⠀
Ice: Branded Large Clear Square (or whatever ice you have on hand)⠀
Garnish: Fresh Lemongrass⠀
:: ⠀
*Jasmine Lemongrass Syrup--⠀
Brew 8 oz of Jasmine Green Tea. Add to pot along with 1 cup sugar. Bring to a simmer and add sliced lemongrass, 3 crushed cardamom pods, 3-5 bay leaves. Simmer for 15 mins, tasting for the flavor profile you are looking for along the way. Remove from heat and strain. Place liquid in a container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.⠀
:: ⠀
If you don't have lemongrass, try makrut lime leaves, which have a citrus aroma and flavor component. You could also use lemon zest, however, it will come out a bit stronger in lemon flavor and not quite as balanced. You might lessen the cooking time to accommodate.⠀
::⠀
If you’re like “Hey! I’m tryna' get eggs and flour and toilet paper ( ) so makrut lime leaves and lemongrass, not gonna happen!” Here’s how to mimic the basic flavors without simmering anything—make a honey syrup (equal parts honey/hot water), use 1/4 oz of this and add an expressed lemon twist on top! !⠀

One restaurant we really enjoy in the Palms area of LA is ; their menu is basically the greatest hits of Southeast Asian cuisine. And for me, this means comfort food. Tofu Family Style, Nasi Goreng, Hainan Chicken Rice, Bo Luc Lac Saltado and Minh’s Pho, to name just a few. ⠀
:: ⠀
They are currently open for pick-up or delivery, so if you’re in LA and want to support a local spot, make sure to get some of this comfort food.⠀
::⠀
Wishing you GOOD VIBES EVERYDAY! ⠀
