I've used brewed tea as a broth for lentil soup before. The trick is getting a light tea flavor, but not so strong it overpowers everything else.

huitlacoche!
I haven't cooked with it yet, but I had it on a taco at Big Star in Chicago and it's AMAZING!

I love Better than Bouillon Not Chicken Broth - it's a great Chicken Broth subsititute! Though I use a little less than the recommend 1 tsp to 8oz water - because it's a little salty.

For some reason I always feel like gougeres or maybe some croquettes would be a good accompaniments to bourbon. Maybe a few different types of naan pizzas - my fav is caramelized onion, goat cheese and basil. I think you would want to stick with things to soak up that booze.

I've made lasagne with tofu before - it's great! You can't taste the tofu and it adds protein to the dish - great for vegetarians :)

Place a colander over a pot of simmering water and cover with a lid. The handles of the colander should sit on top of the pot and keep the water from reaching the bottom of the colander. I've used this method with great success!
