Bourbon Sazerac Wimped out on doing a Blue Blazer

Today was insane. I made the mistake of promising to clean out the garage this weekend. I basically had to take a break every hour and drink a half gallon of water. Also, tomorrow is the first day of moving to the new HP building and last week involved packing up the old office. That was insane too. Yeah, way too hot.

Dixie Whisky Cocktail (6 People) Savoy To 2 lumps of sugar (Dash Cane Syrup) add a small teaspoon of Angostura Bitters (Nice Dash of Boker's), another of Lemon Juice (Dash Lemon Juice), 4 glasses of Whisky (2 1/4 oz Russell's Reserve Bourbon), a small teaspoonful of Curacao (barely a dash of Dash Creole Shrubb) and 2 teaspoonsful of Crème de Menthe (Dash Brizard White Crème de Menthe). Add plenty of ice and shake carefully. Serve.

Dinah Cocktail (Savoy, modified) First put 2 or 3 sprigs of fresh mint (1 sprig) in the shaker and bruise them lightly against the sides of the shaker by stirring with a silver spoon. Pour into the shaker 3 glasses of Whisky (3 oz Russell's Reserve 10 Bourbon) and let it stand for some minutes. Add 3 glasses of sweetened Lemon Juice (Juice 1/2 Lemon, 1 teaspoon Caster Sugar) and some (cracked) ice. Shake very carefully and for longer than usual. Serve with a mint leaf standing in each glass.

Mint Julep 3 US fluid ounces (89 ml; 3.1 imp fl oz) Bourbon whiskey 4 to 6 sprigs mint leaves granulated sugar, to taste Preparation Put mint, sugar, and a small amount of bourbon into the bottom of a mixing glass. Gently muddle the mint and sugar, then let stand for a bit to allow the muddled leaves to release their flavor. Strain and pour into a julep cup (or similar vessel), rotating to coat the sides. Fill with ice, then add the rest of the bourbon whiskey. Garnish with a lightly slapped small mint sprig.

Interesting! The Tequila-Campari drinks are nice...

Bobby Burns (Savoy) 1/2 Italian Vermouth 1/2 Scotch Whisky 3 Dashes Benedictine Stir well and strain into cocktail glass. Squeeze lemon peel on top. Absolutely amazing drink! Killed the Asyla, I really enjoyed it. Torino is amazing! Mikey, what would you recommend I pick up next for a Scotch? Something nice, say less than $125? Note it might be occasionally polluted in cocktails :)

I have been doing a lot of Hatch chilies as well, they are huge in Austin.

I recently really enjoyed a Hanky Panky, that I drank them several days in a row... My next drink will be a Bobby Burns...

Another!

Lemon Pie Cocktail (Savoy) 1 Glass Scotch Whisky. 1 bottle Lemonade. (2 oz) Stir with a large ice cube

Here's the square wave of my Tek CFG280, notice the time scale (100ns). 19ns rise time isn't bad.

Yay for Cocchi! The Barton is pretty subtle, all things considering.
