Abbey Peep
This beer has been through a lot. The Leffe abbey got its start in 1152 in Belgium. Since then, it was destroyed by flood in 1460. Burned down by a fire in 1466. Damaged by a passing army in 1735. Abandoned in the wake of the French Revolution of 1794… and after restarting in 1902 it recently suffered the greatest disgrace of all: It’s now Budweiser.
That’s right, it partnered with yuppie-friendly but still-actually-Belgian Stella Artois, and it is bottled and distributed by American shame-of-the-beers Anheuser-Busch.
Sad times for those who appreciate fine craftsmanship… and small solace, to know that the original abbey still receives royalties. One more great institution sold out. <sigh> In times like these, there’s only one thing we can think to do:
- dress a peep in the finest monastic garb
- garnish a snifter of fine abbey ale
- consume like a fraternity pledge!
Peep-Sama Sake
Think there aren’t peeps in Japan? Haven’t you seen the Shochu Peeps? It’s like an Asian invAsion around here!
Transport yourself to the Far East with a handmade origami kimono for your most favorite peep, and reminisce about a time when bushido was about more than just cosplay.
EDITORS’ NOTE: Not to complain, but you wouldn’t believe how long it took us to get this peep to behave for the photo… show us some love, eh?
Peepover Cure
- One raw egg
- Dash of hot sauce
- Peep to keep you company
If you’ve enjoyed a few too many PeepDrinks, the next morning you’re likely to be looking for a cure. And we have one!
Of course it’s best if the eggs are free range organic, and for the hot sauce I heartily recommend “Psycho Bitch” mango habañero, brand, with the tagline “PMS in a bottle”)
By the way, don’t actually try to take a shortcut and simply eat the habañero, else this may happen: http://youtube.com/?v=L8ip5oGlMfU. If you fancy the hot sauce, I recommend shopping FireGirl.com — this is not a paid endorsement, I just love the vendor!
Tequila Peepshots
- 1 bottle tequila
- 1 rack of peeps
- 1-2 lemons or limes
- small bowl of coarse salt
Which is better as a chaser?
Citrus or Marshmallow? Lime, Lemon, or Peep?
Try both, and then you decide! Comment below to tell us your vote….
Either way, beware of the aftermath that may ensue — could be unhealthy for the peeps! Here’s what happened to ours, when we tested in the “lab”:
Tequila Peeprise
- 1.5oz Jose Cuervo Tequila
- 3/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1.5oz grenadine syrup
- 1 maraschino cherry
- Don’t forget the Peep!
Stir or shake together tequila and orange juice. Fill a chilled 12 ounce glass with ice cubes; pour in orange juice mixture. Slowly pour in the grenadine, and allow it to settle to the bottom of the glass (be patient). Garnish with a an orange slice (optional), a maraschino cherry, and a marshmallow peep!
Peepikaze
- 1.25 oz Vodka
- 0.25 oz triple sec
- 0.25 oz lime juic
Fill a small shaker with ice. Add lime juice, triple sec and vodka, shake and strain into a shot glass, then garnish with divebombing peep.
