What Did You Drink Last Night?

[1961MJS]

...
The Old Fashioned would be good with what you have:
2 oz Rye
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 splash water(enough to disolve the sugar)
1 tsp sugar
1 maraschino cherry

Muddle the cherry, water and sugar together in the bottom of the glass. Add ice cubes, stir. Add the rye, stir. Add the angostura bitters, stir. Drink.

Hi

Drinking one in the first quarter, I'll be drinking more of these. They're GOOD.

I just made a Horse's Neck, Overholdt Rye Whiskey, Lemon juice (two squirts), several drops of Angostura bitters, and Vernor's Ginger Ale. This isn't an improvement on just Vernor's and Overholdt. This has less flavor somehow. I think that somehow the bitter's, Rye, and Lemon counter each other's taste. I'll try the Vernor's, Rye, and Bitters next time. I like bitters pretty well.

Later

Yeah, the balance might have been a little off there. You generally need a strong, a sweet and a bitter/sour to make a decent cocktail. Looks like you have two sour/bitters in that one.

A good vessel for a Moscow Mule. What kind of ginger beer did you use?

I used Reed's ginger beer, Stoli and limes from my tree. The mugs make it, though!

James,

Oh, my goodness! Now, what on earth is that? A flaming something-or-other?

Could be Zambuca - or it might be Isopropyl. Care to try your luck?

That is a Flaming Lamborghini. It has Sambuca in it along with Kahlua, Blue curacao and Bailey's Irish Cream. Add the Sambuca and Kahlua in a cocktail glass---equal proportions. Top with a little 151 rum. Light it up. Drink through a straw and add the shots of Sambuca and Baileys as you reach the bottom of the glass---dousing the flames.

I'll have to check that out. :cheers1:

Ok, don't burn anything drinking it now.
Sorry to hear about the bad day.

I'd like to pour it over someone, but that would be a waste of alcohol

Thank you my sweet friend

Personally, I am quite fond of my eyebrows--at least, I would miss them if they were gone....
