directions

  • 1

    Note: If you don’t have buttermilk, you can add a big blob of sour cream. If you don’t have sour cream or buttermilk, you can use 1/4 cup of regular milk with 1 Tbsp of white vinegar. I have also added frozen juice concentrate or juice or wine or whatever. If you don’t have any of this stuff, add 1/2 cup of beer and drink the rest....
