Finally got a little nip in the air here, but not enough to bite the peppers, just some of the other tender things & nasturtiums a little bit. Andy & I have been on the road for a week or so & worn out so found me a bit of cider to mix with a bit of Old Forrester tonight when I get some of this work done. I am worn out.
calldoctoday relax and enjoy being home. Old Forester will definitely do the trick.

All of the talk earlier today about a Old Fashions got me motivated. First a few pics of some Christmas gift sets.
All the ingredients needed to have a great Old Fashioned
I topped it with a Maraschino cherry, but remembered another Christmas gift.
If you haven’t tried them, these Woodford cherries are awesome, especially on top of an Old Fashioned. Slainte“You never really die until you end up on the wall at a Cracker Barrel”

Did anyone try an old-fashioned with olives instead of cherries? That’s what was in the premade mix we had. I say premade but it was hand made but the lady who donated the whiskey. I am going to have a few tonight.
Jonathon Not an olive fan in my old fashioned. Olives have their place, just not in there. I know that there is places that serve them that way but would be tough to find in the Northwoods. Like asking for ketchup for your brat in Chicago at a major league game. It wouldn’t be prudent.

calldoctoday Yep, looks like a blind tasting is in order.

It is supposed to be in the negative double digits tonight. Decided to pull out a bottle of some German schnapps, this one is pretty clean tasting, most are an acquired taste. It will warm you up.

YooperDog you’ve peaked my interest. Last schnapps I had was DeKuyper peach schnapps a loooong time ago. Is that like a brandy?

Surg Yes. Not like the typical US schnapps, sweet and syrupy. You can taste the essence of the pear in this one, but it is clean and light. I found a distillery in Milwaukee, WI, I think called Great Lakes Distillery that makes a pretty comparable one. But the other fruits I only found in Germany. I have been real slow in using up some of my liquors from when I was stationed overseas. Can’t find many of them over here.
I gifted my last bottle of Thai whisky to a Thai friend, I sure wish I had one bottle of that left. Nothing fancy but it was unique, I think it was called Mekong.

GWG8541 Never saw that brand of cherries on the shelf. How do they compare to the Luxardo’s?

calldoctoday I like having the variety for sure. I’m beginning to think some people believe I have a drinking problem.

YooperDog that sounds delicious on a cold day. I went out yesterday for muzzleloader and would have enjoyed that at the end of the day.

GWG8541 Well, I would have to agree, you are not drinking enough obviously…So, you can send some my way & I will be glad to help you up your numbers!

calldoctoday GWG8541 Begging doesn’t work around here for some reason. People are just sitting back watching both the snow and the bottle level fall at this time of year.

zbigjeff That is hilarious. Well, I will just have to have another sip of my Old Forrester 101 & Cider, with a touch of Nutmeg!

calldoctoday I can boast about doing the same thing. But, with Old Elk on ice. Just watching it flurry a bit with a strong wind. Isn’t it grand?

calldoctoday that sounds like a good combo. My only problem is I left my cider on the porch to cool down and discoverered it froze, so I’m waiting for the big thaw. An Irish coffee may be a substitute tonight.
