For the third installment of my Ramp Shows, I decided to do something very different...
What you have in front of you is an old fashioned, tipsy, Christmas mixtape. Inspired by 1960's and driven by Dean Martin, the real king of Christmas. Allow yourself go back to an era when life seemed simpler, less globalised and capitalised.
For this mix to go down properly, to precisely taste what I'm trying to say here, I've added a secret ingredient to help compliment the next seventy five minutes...something hot to warm your soul this holiday season. This may be an unorthodox step to take but "Oh my gosh my golly, it's time for Gluhwein and Knusperhauschen biscuits"!
My secret Christmas Gluhwein recipe goes as follows:
1 bottle of wine, 500ml apple juice, 1 can of pear cider, 50g sugar, 1 cinnamon stick snapped in half, 4 cloves, 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground all spice, couple of splashes of Cointreau. Just bring to the boil slowly, take 25-30mins to cook through. Repeat the stated dose. Tracklisting:
