Usually, when someone gives you a tut, they’re not being complimentary. But today, the disapproval dies.
Today you are worshipped by the masses.
Today you are showered with gifts.
Today you drink like a king.
From now until next April, the Art Gallery of Ontario is hosting a King Tut exhibit, “The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs.” In its honor, the Fairmont Royal York hotelhas commissioned an honorary cocktail: the Tut-tini.Yea, I know, shameless corporate promo, but it’s actually pretty swanky. It’s spiked with real flecks of 24-karat gold – even if you end up dumping it, you’ll still feel like a high roller haughtily washing money down the drain.
Try it yourself. With its warm spicy flavors and candy tones, it’s a great drink for the holidays.
You’ll love it (trust me):
-Fresh Ice
-1 oz vodka (they recommend Grey Goose)
-1/2 oz Goldschlager
-1 oz butter ripple liquer
-splash of cranberry juice
Add ice to a cocktail shaker. Add other ingredients except cranberry juice. Gently shake and strain into a chilled martini glass. Top with cranberry juice. Makes 1 drink.

This is so cool! I've always wanted to drink gold, and now I know how to do it. However, part of me wonders if gold is good for the digestive system...
I'm going to go with no... but at least if it gets stuck somewhere you can tell people you're literally made of money (although that gives kind of a scary new meaning to the term 'heart of gold'...)
I love this idea! The thought of dressing up and pretending to be super rich (rich enough to dump the drink) is so intriguing!
