Drink of Choice

Tex_77 There is no way I could narrow it down to a favorite. If the booze has color I’ll drink it neat. Clear spirts such as vodka or gin call for soda water or tonic and some citrus. I like to keep it simple and chase all of the above with a good craft beer…especially IPA.
I’m currently avoiding booze in preparation for a trip to Vegas soon. My liver thanks me.
Joe Hell are you on? look at your chat

Long week. Quick stop at the store after work. A couple of rib-eyes, box of beer and a bottle of Makers. Settling in for another weekend home bound. Maybe pics, maybe not. Makers on the rocks tasting good. Just saying. Cheers!

Cat backer and Weller, good combo!

Drambuie. Watching the steam roll from the pan

Tex_77 I was never much of a bourbon fan but Wellers on the rocks has been my go-to recently and I’m very much enjoying it!

Jonathon I’m having the Weller Antique 107 to celebrate firing up my boy ‘blue’ today…it’s been years!

@s-a-m 68’ Buick Skylark…original motor was a 350 2bbl…long story short, it now has a 340 4bbl from a Wildcat from 66’. I got it from my great grandmother nearly 30 years ago. It’s sitting around 98k miles currently. It needs some (much) work but overall it’s been the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned!

Joe Hell It is absolutely gorgeous man! Now you need two asian brothers who learned english from howard cossel to race against, a paperboy who stalks your for $2, a new french girlfriend and a rival to beat in a ski race! I know it wasn’t a Skylark in Better Off Dead but the before and after picture reminded me of that!

Jonathon s request, please list your drink of choice. I’ll start, I love bourbon and Coors Light or a good old Coors yellow belly. My bourbons of choice are Elijah Craig, Bulliet, Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam Black and W.L. Wellers. Now if I just want to pound down some drinks a good 7&7 can’t be beat.
Tex_77 Tonight I teamed up with a local cider place to make some cider based brats to sell at Butcher Butcher Walla Walla to help promote both business’ in these trying times. For inspiration I thought I’d make a cocktail using their Hibiscus Cider and a Negroni based drink seemed like the perfect catalyst.
For my recipe I used 2 oz. Aviation Gin, 1 oz. Noilly Prat Rouge Vermouth, 1 oz. Campari, and 4 oz. of the delicious Hibiscus Cider from ‘The Locust’ in downtown Walla Walla. The company has several locations in the western states so product is available. I highly recommend these guys and proceeds go to a worthy cause!

That sounds interesting & definitely unique. I will try them if they can send some to Alabama!

Very cool that you are supporting the locals. -
PapaSop I rarely go out to eat but I’ve been trying to get takeout a couple time a week from establishments that are still open. Since I’m just eating for one I’ve made it a point to leave a tip for the exact amount I paid for the food itself. It’s not a lot but anything helps.
-
Joe Hell We’ve been buying more take out than ever before and bought some gift cards from favorite local places that had them. Now is a good time to spend locally if you can afford it.

Know I tried this sometime back but couldn’t remember the taste. Argh! Part of the aging process? Not bad. Very sippable…
No idea that was an actual word. Spell check kept laughing.

Jim Black is great!

Yes, Beam Black was pretty good & used to have it regularly years ago before I just settled on the Forrester 101 & even 80.
