69 - Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

  • Summary

  • Follow us into the misty moors as we discuss whether or not this really is a love story, how much we’re enjoying the gothic drama, and if Bertha really was crazy. We also talk about what the teenage versions of ourselves might have thought of this book and how much we need to read more from all the Bronte sisters.

    Episode Drink: From Tequila Mockingbird by Tim Federle 

     

    Gin Eyre

     

    8 sprigs of fresh mint, washed

    2 oz English gin

    1 oz lemon juice

    1 ½ tsp granulated sugar

    2 dashes orange bitters

     

    Tear the mint leaves and put into a shaker. Put other ingredients in shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into a cocktail glass.

     

    “Now nurse that drink like a good nanny”



    Take a drink:

    Whenever someone says something mean to Jane

    Whenever Mr. Rochester is an asshole

    Whenever you eyeroll at the outdated expectations

    Whenever the a ghost haunts a house or a room

    Take two drinks whenever someone proposes marriage to Jane

    Roll your eyes when men just keep vocalizing their stupid expectations of Jane when it’s none of their fucking business

    Take a  drink when you really give a second, third, and fourth thought to how crazy was Bertha and was she really crazy?

    Finish your drink when you realize maybe this wasn’t a love story after all.
