#63 Cocktail: Black Velveteen

     As you can see from the title, this drink is based on the Black Velvet recipe. But when the Black Velvet is made with champagne and stout, this one is made with cider and stout. Due to this cheaper ingredient, cider, this drink is also known as "The Black Velvet of the poor". But you know what? I think I like it more than the Black Velvet. The taste is influenced by the fruit used in the cider and the stout adds the bitter part so you won't feel that the drink is too sweet.
  I can't tell you that my girlfriend loves it. And she says that it works really good with the berry cider.
   If you want the drink to look like the one in the picture, just pour the stout on the back of a spoon, really easy.

8 ounces hard cider
8 ounce stout
