The news these days is enough to drive you to drink. That’s why we asked a local barfly, Schmitty, to take on the task of creating a shot to go with the hottest story in the news. His debut offering? The Joe Paterno Shot.

It’s pretty much an Old Fashioned, Schmitty reports, but as a shot.

The Joe Paterno

Bourbon
Squirt of simple syrup
Dash of bitters (okay, who are we kidding — a LOT of bitters)

Cover that up with anything handy (a napkin will suffice)

Close your eyes, and bottoms up! (Or is that last part the Sandusky?)
