Nice Al...

One More 1967 tonight:

--> Glen Keith 1967/ 22yo 45.6% stubby Cadenhead black label

Supplication

mysore

Manhattan.

Two full size Vespers. One with Gale Force and one with North Shore 11. Karen preferred the Gale Force so that worked well for both of us.

Hair of the Dog Blue Dot Double IPA on tap...good stuff...not overdone...

Try this with the Lillet even though Cocchi is better:

Corpse Reviver (No. 2)

1/4 Wine Glass Lemon Juice (3/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice)

1/4 Wine Glass Kina Lillet. (3/4 oz Cocchi Aperitivo Americano)

1/4 Wine Glass Cointreau. (3/4 oz Cointreau)

1/4 Wine Glass Dry Gin. (3/4 oz Bombay Gin)

1 Dash Absinthe. (Verte de Fougerolles)

Shake well and strain into cocktail glass.

Trying it now, a bit unusual compared to the other cocktails I've made... doesn't really have a distinct "new" flavor, but the individual flavors kind of ebb and flow. Also going down very quickly.

Back in the lab making mini margaritas (it's a tough job but someone.... oh well, you know the saying):

#1

1 oz Casa Noble Anejo tequila

3/8 oz Clement Creole Shrubb orange liquor

1/4 oz lime juice

#2

1 oz Don Julio Anejo tequila

3/8 oz Clement Creole Shrubb orange liquor

1/4 oz lime juice

They are both awesome but I slightly prefer the ultra smooth Don Julio over the Casa Noble with the extra bite. Others may prefer the CN though.

Seems like we have a little double post going on with the new update.

Sun King Cream Dream IV: A New Hop...

Manhattan

Not a goddamn thing, unfortunately.

Talisker 10

Nice experimentation Shelly!

For Lillet Blanc cocktails, one of my favorites is the Bourbon Dynasty.

   2 oz Bourbon

   1 oz Lillet (white)

   1 tsp crème de cassis

   2 dashes of Peychaud’s bitters

  lemon peel (garnish)

Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

Twist a piece of lemon peel over top, releasing the oils and drop in drink.

Decided to take my own advice

Decided to fuck around a little since I have no idea what I'm doing and ended up with a drink made with 2 1/2 oz rye, 1/2 oz campari, and 2 dashes of peychaud's. Is there a name for something like this? Not anything great, but it's immensely drinkable.

and I've now killed that 1/4 bottle of talisker 10. I only have the distillers and 18 left, neither of which I like as much.

So did I and I like it. Definitely need the essential oils from the lemon peel.

Don't know but it sounds good.

I'm a follower and made myself a Bourbon Dynasty. A big one.

Rastafye Rye in a plastic cup by the pool

My glass is empty. I will now drink one of the the drinks recommended by the next 3 posts.

Margarita

I have no tequila, otherwise I'd be on that like a shot. -edit- (accidently pun LULZ)

I also have no vodka which isn't flavoured atm.

Got lots (lots) of whisky. Campari, Cynar, Gin, vermouth (all kinds), brandy, rum (all sorts),

Just typing that out is screaming a cynar negroni at me.
