From the Fall 2023 issue of Whiskey Advocate magazine. I used Bacardi 8 for the aged rum part.
Early Riser
1 1/2 oz rye
1/2 oz aged rum
3/4 oz lime juice
1/2 oz Velvet Falernum
1/2 oz grenadine
2 dashes absinthe
Place all ingredients into a shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with grated nutmeg.
Applesoused.
I have sampled all manner of cocktail. For me a martini, an old fashioned, a Negroni, an Army and Navy, and a gin fizz will suffice.
Life is sweet. I’m SO jealous.
Lost me at the coupe…
This prompts me to ask: Do you have cider slkpper?

Retirement doesn’t suck

I was looking up “cider slipper” and I got … cider brand slippers ….
Congrats! My daugther bought me “No Aperol, no Party” socks in Florence. I want to add the “The Last Spritz” adaptation of “The Last Supper” to my art collection…
The Tipperary:
Stir in a mixing glass with ice and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with an orange peel.

The Dude abides
An as-yet-unnamed drink a friend invented. Quafftide is a possible name.
Shake and strain into a cocktail or coupe glass.
OMG. I’ve thought of many things, but never hot, mulled Manischewitz. There’s a whole lot of sweetness to temper, that’s for sure.
Had a Topo Chico this afternoon
