Steps:
- In an 8-quart stockpot, bring 4 quarts water to a boil over high heat. Blanch the cabbage by submerging it in the boiling water just until it turns a dull grayish purple, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, shake the colander for a minute or so to remove excess water, and reserve.
- Scatter the bacon in a 12-inch dry skillet over medium-high heat. With a wooden spoon, move the pieces around until the bacon is firm and barely crisp, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
- Pour the vinegar into the skillet. It will hiss and pop at first but will soon subside. Swirl the vinegar around with the spoon, stirring up any browned bits of bacon. Add the celery seeds and red pepper flakes and stir.
- Add the cabbage to the skillet and toss to coat it with the vinegar. Add the salt, pepper, and reserved bacon, and continue to sauté, stirring the cabbage around the pan until all its bright magenta glory has returned, about 4 minutes.
- Place the slaw in a bowl and shake pepper vinegar over it to taste. Pass the cruet at the table for those who wish to fire it up further.
EARL GREYHOUND
This drink starts with a simple shrub--a tart, fruity liquid you make ahead and can also sip straight up or with seltzer-made with sugar, vinegar, citrus, and a tea bag. It's a play on a Greyhound (grapefruit juice and vodka). Salt the rim if you like.

Steps:
- In a highball glass filled with ice add vodka and grapefuit juice and stir.
- ENJOY.
Tips:
- Chill the ingredients: Chilling the vodka, grapefruit juice, and lime juice before making the cocktail will help it be extra refreshing.
- Use fresh grapefruit juice: Fresh grapefruit juice will give the cocktail the best flavor. If you don't have fresh grapefruit juice, you can use bottled grapefruit juice, but it won't be as good.
- Add a garnish: A lime wedge or a grapefruit twist is a classic garnish for a Greyhound. You can also add a sprig of mint for a refreshing touch.
- Serve immediately: The Greyhound is best served immediately after it is made. If you let it sit for too long, the ice will melt and dilute the cocktail.
Conclusion:
The Greyhound is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is refreshing, easy to make, and delicious. If you are looking for a new cocktail to try, the Greyhound is a great option.
