How to Make Apple Cider Mixed Drinks

"The drink we are about to make is called an Apple Cider Slider. It's got a nice ring to it doesn't it, tastes great too. There we go let's put some ice in here. It's going to be a shot o'kay. We are going to make two shots for your friends that love the taste of apple cider It is going to have a nice kick to it though. Do one shot of Spiced Rum and let's do a half a shot of Apple Schnapps and also a half a shot of Cinnamon Schnapps. There we go and we are just going to do a splash of lemon lime soda. There we go and let's mix it up good here Be careful with the lemon lime soda there, it might get all over. In that case we did alright. Now let's get a couple of shot glasses ready and our strainer and we are going to serve up and you can smell that apple cinnamon, an Apple Cider Slider, two shots. Bottoms up."

54 days to go, is Delhi ready?

Incomplete stadiums, living quarters far from finished and debris strewn all over the city - Delhi looks far from being ready for the Commonwealth Games.


The Jawarharlal Nehru Stadium (JNS), which was inaugurated on July 27, was meant to be a symbol to showcase the Games. But it looks nothing more than a construction site despite its ` 961 crore makeover.



The Central Public Works Department (CPWD) began construction over two years ago. The deadline is September 1 after which the stadium will be locked down. But will it be ready by that date?


No one is allowed inside. But according to sources, the main lights and main announcement systems are in place at the stadium. The field and stadium seats are also ready. But underground cabling for electricity and water supply, water connections, painting and welding of the boundary are still not complete.




Clean-up deadline missed?

Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit had last Month set August 10 as the deadline for removing all construction and demolition waste from the city and ordered all civic agencies to strictly comply with the time-frame.


She had also reiterated that there would be no deviation in the deadline to halt digging work and to remove the malba. But with tonnes and tonnes of rubble still strewn around across the city, this does not seem possible.
