Drink of Choice

@ndmike brother, since we chose the same profession, there have been plenty of those days. Having said that, the secret to getting to the end is to drink when your happy, not when your down. Slaite’
I made a Gold Rush with a twist. I added some fresh mint. It seems to be a great summer drink.
- 1 part fresh lemon juice
- 1 part honey simple syrup
- 2.5 parts of bourbon
- two mint leaves
- lemon peel
Put in a shaker with ice and shake vigorously. Pour in a rocks glass over fresh ice. Garnish with a lemon wedge and sprig of mint.
The wife is not a whiskey drinker, but really liked this. It’s mostly whiskey and goes down way to easy.

GWG8541 oh I hear ya. I didn’t touch anything today. I learned a long time ago that crawling in a bottle when things are going bad is no place to be!

ND Mike processhead Jonathon Austin
judging by the harsh and obviously sarcastic tone in your sentiments I would expect you all to be on team blue. Jon is a heartless unfeeling thug as I would imagine the denizens who flock to his “blue team” would be. It must indeed be a cold day in hell for me to throw any shade of support for those in the orange -
