Drink Your Dessert: Ray's & Stark Bar's Pie Cocktail Pairs with KCRW Pie Contest
Sunday is the 3rd Annual KCRW Pie Contest, and as a judge, I'm looking forward to tasting what L.A. has been baking. Though the contest is closed now to entries, the event is free and open to the public, and there will be plenty for attendees to taste, too. The Pie Contest is happening at LACMA, adjacent to Ray's & Stark Bar, whose mixologist, Michel Dozois, has come up with a "Pie Cocktail" to pair with the event.
PIE COCKTAIL
2 oz Liquor43
1 oz fresh squeezed lime juice
3/4 oz heavy cream
*graham cracker rim
Thanks to the Good Food blog for the recipe and video. See you Sunday for pie, and pie, and pie...and the Pie Cocktail, which will be available all day Sunday for $10.
