    zbigjeff If you make your own simple syrup I would definitely suggest to use turbinado over regular sugar. Since I live in Louisiana and I am surrounded by sugarmill. I have several patients who work at the mill and get that stuff direct, so by association I get some primo stuff. It brings another dimension to old fashions. Everybody grows Satsumas locally and a splash of that juice is incredible!!! My last old fashion was made with Four Roses. Talk about a great Bourbon, but I would say I prefer to drink it on ice though.

    Dr_Pain Have not tried turbinado sugar. But, have tried dark and light brown sugar. Will have to pick up some turbinado. Always into enhancing the experience. Thanks.

      One of my sons introduced me to Snoop Dogg’s Indoggo gin
      I usually am wary of celebrity brands but at 80 proof this is smooth enough to be a straight sipper

              glen Yep, I used to hate Gin, but then I spent a few bucks on a bottle and turns out its a pretty good spirit. It does get a bad wrap and I understand why, some of those botanicals are pretty potent.

              A sloe gin fizz is also an underappreciated drink.

                  Recently came across a way too make your own gin (aka bathtub gin… I think) from vodka. Definitely going to give it a try so I can tweak it into something that’s delicious. Just ordered some juniper berries which I’m sure I’ll find other uses for as well. Another spirit that I’m interested in trying my hand at is aquavit and variations of that.

                    I put Juniper Berries in my pickled eggs & pickled herring. I’ll smash a few when I sauté my sauerkraut with garlic, caraway seed and a pinch of cardamom.(don’t forget to add that dollop of butter!).

                                        JohnG5 It’s a Barleywine and they are generally very tasty when aged that long. I have a couple sitting down in my basement from probably 20 years ago from the Oregon Brewers Festival that were given out at an AHA Banquet. If you can afford it, it’s a worthwhile drink. Go here to see what’s in it. https://www.samueladams.com/our-beers/specialty-beers/ale/utopias

                                          Someone please try this and tell me if it’s any good. I’d have to take out a second mortgage to buy some. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/sam-adams-beer-utopias-illegal-15-states/

                                          JohnG5 No beer is worth $240 in my world. Almost no booze is worth that much. Will have to take people’s word on it.
