I have been avoiding the Clove Tom Collins Pie recipe for a while, for obvious reasons. Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve tried Bubble Crum, Salad with Mustard and Ketchup and Boiled Celery and I can say, without hyperbole, that this is a million times worse than all of them put together.
In this so-called recipe Homer first uses Tom Collins Mix, which doesn’t really exist. A classic Tom Collins cocktail is made up of gin, sour mix, soda, and simple syrup, so I used limonade for this pie and declared it close enough. Also not available are pie crust TOPS – which is what it looks like Homers uses. Obviously pie crust bottoms can be found in any frozen food aisle. And if you just turn them upside down they turn into pie crust tops. Easy as pie (see what I did there?). However, in the interest of not wasting an entire pie crust I used a tart shell instead.
Ingredients
- Cloves
- Tom Collins Mix (Limonade)
- Frozen Pie Crust (tart shell)
Directions
Add cloves and Tom Collins mix to frozen pie crust. Take a single bite and immediately regret all the decisions in your life leading up to this moment.
Going in I knew this was going to be bad, I mean cloves are basically inedible but the frozen pie crust mixed with any kind of liquid becomes a mushy mess within about 10 seconds. This was bad. Really, really, really, bad.
