A hybrid....
I’m having a bourbon and amaretto sour (inverted Morganthaler recipe, basically). Are you having a Saturday drink?
Not much to look at but tastes good....
I’m just having coffee (moka pot coffee with foamed milk!) and water today, can’t relax yet. Considering what to make in the weekend.
Do y’all think this will be shelf stable? Or will it go bad like a wash?...
A boozy Saturday drink....
I am really sorry I didn’t get a picture of the finished drink, too dark but it’s gorgeous. I don’t like the gin I have and thought vodka and mastiha would be more to my taste so:...
Congratulations to neptune@dmv.social on the win for April, and to the closest challenger and most active participant BigGovernment[@lemmy.world....
I feel out of the loop, did not know that Jim Beam and Makers were owned by Suntory, now Suntory Global.
2oz tequila...
I’ve been an ice geek for 10 years, ever since we got 2 freezers. First with a lunch cooler, used to fill it, then melt off the cloudy part with hot water, then whack the clear ice with a rolling pin to break it into wee icebergs. The cooler cracked and I got a more intentional setup, now it’s big cubes of clear ice, and big...
Here’s a nice, simple, boozy one from Death & Co:...
A simple Sunday drink. If you have followed this community you probably know I am a big fan of bourbon and fruit mixtures. This is:...
This one is, oddly, a little too muted in flavor. Not sure what it needs, but some adjustment. Maybe just a more assertive tequila, the Ocho Plato is so smooth, I love it but it doesn’t stand up to strong flavors, or maybe it just needs a little more bitterness, shake the lime peels in with the rest of it....
So, we’ve been doing the world’s slowest bar crawl, having one drink a week, at different bars at this posh outdoor mall where the grocery is. So far:...
I am having another split base version of one of my standards:...
This is a Frankenstein’s monster of a smashup, and it’s great. I have some tequila I don’t love (have yet to meet a cristalino I actually like) and Naked and Famous is a little too sweet/strong/syrupy for me. So:...
Using up the aging citrus in the fridge....
The perfect sipping drink on a spring day, this variation on the Rat King shot will impress your friends....
2 oz cognac, one of Cointreau, one of lemon....
No entries to the March contest so no winner. For April our ingredient challenge comes from @neptune,winner of the February challenge who suggested Cynar, Artichoke April....
An aperitif before tostadas of black beans and leftover steak, onions, cheese and homegrown lettuce. I really like Paper Plane in theory but in practice it’s way too sweet and slightly too muted for my palate. This is my favorite variation - twice the bourbon, splash of Campari, little more lemon than the original. So, not so...
I like this tequila, and am glad to see the new bottles will fit in my drink cabinet. The old ones are sleek and beautiful in proportion like sort of narrow wine bottles but too tall for the shelves.
