Rum Punch

Product Information

Il titolo: nella nostra lingua evoca sensazioni sbagliate perché per noi il punch è più spesso bevanda calda, mentre il clima e l’atmosfera di questo romanzo richiedono abbondante ghiaccio. Tra l’altro, i personaggi del libro sembrano preferire la vodka, magari nella variante skrewdriver, più banalmente vodka orange (vodka con succo d’arancia). Remember to leave the rum punch to sit for a little while before serving if you make it in a bowl. Don’t add ice!

How to make the perfect rum punch | Food | The Guardian How to make the perfect rum punch | Food | The Guardian

Four years later, I watched Pulp Fiction (1994) for the first time and wondered if Tarantino and Leonard had long been buddies, because I saw so many similarities in the snappy dialogue and rounded portrayals of underworld baddies and the cop out to collar them. In the fine tradition of thirst-quenching tropical pours, it also has a hefty acidic element, which is traditionally provided by lime juice. A recipe in the September 1878 issue of the British magazine Fun calls for lemon, but I assume that is because they were more easily available in Victorian Britain (although I’m willing to stand corrected). Gary Regan’s The Joy of Mixology and Trader Vic’s use both, but I can’t see the point, when the keener, greener sharpness of the lime plays off so well against the sweeter elements. Rule: Avoid using exclamation points (in other words, Leonard is telling us to let the action itself communicate power and excitement). Robert Forster/Max Cherry con Quentin Tarantino. Forster veterano dello schermo, piccolo e grande, ha avuto qui la sua prima (e unica) grande occasione. Secondo me vinta in pieno.Pesci piccoli, anche se sanguinari e spietati, soldati semplici della mafia, piccoli gangster del ghetto che se la tirano da padrini, trafficanti di armi o droga, gente ai margini dai giri grossi. Gente qualsiasi, ordinary people dell’underworld. Larousse follows the same sort of ratios, which give an easy-drinking, but still defiantly poky punch. Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Near fine, never read, full number line, tiny spotty edge rubbing. Here is how the author describes bail bondsman Max Cherry, one of the main characters, through the eyes of Ordell, another main character: "The man himself appeared neat, cleanshaved, had his blue shirt open, no tie, good size shoulders on him. That dark, tough-looking type of guy like Lewis, dark hair, only Max Cherry was losing his on top. Up in his fifties somewhere. He could be Eyetalian, except Ordell had never met a bail bondsman wasn't Jewish." ----- That's it-short, crisp, a few telling details.

Rum Punch by Elmore Leonard | Waterstones

I suoi protagonisti più che ricordare Chandler, malinconico e romantico, o lo schizofrenico Thompson, sono sull’impronta dei cowboys che popolano le pagine dei suoi (meravigliosi) racconti e dei suoi (presumo, perché non li ho ancora letti) romanzi western.

The cinnamon and nutmeg are optional, but once you try them, you won’t make your rum punch without them. THANK YOU for all of your support, for visiting my blog, commenting, and sharing my recipes with your friends and family. I am SO thankful for you! The best rum for your rum punch is the famous Wray and Nephew White Overproof Rum and Appleton Estate Jamaica Rum, which are used in this recipe. Now, the Feds know that Ordell’s a gun runner but just can’t catch him doing anything illegal. So they also set up a sting with the help of some of their nefarious friends.

Ordell Robbie and Louis Gara first appeared in Leonard's 1978 novel, The Switch. Fourteen years later, Ordell has become a thief and minor-league gun runner while Louis is fresh out of prison. Also returning is Ordell's sometime girlfriend, Melanie. Ordell has a big score in mind that involves ripping off the leader of a group of white supremacists, and he recruits his old pal Louis to give him a hand, dangling Melanie before him as bait. Put the rum, sugar syrup, lime juice and cold water into a tall glass with ice and the bitters (or jug, if making multiple drinks) and stir to combine. Narrative form is truly different, even the tense of what someone speaks, and perspective can change in a heartbeat, so effective.Elmore John Leonard lived in Dallas, Oklahoma City and Memphis before settling in Detroit in 1935. After serving in the navy, he studied English literature at the University of Detroit where he entered a short story competition. His earliest published novels in the 1950s were westerns, but Leonard went on to specialize in crime fiction and suspense thrillers, many of which have been adapted into motion pictures. Cast grandioso, tutto perfetto: la mia palma va a Robert De Niro che interpreta un Louis Gara dall’incerto QI in modo semplice ma magistrale.
