Its Friday so you all know what that's means, time for a drink!

So what are you drinking tonight?

I have been wanting to try an Apple flavored whiskey, so I picked this up today and it is pretty damn good.

Good choice!

Good choice!

I like their salted caramel whiskey. My favorite is Ol Smokeys salty caramel, and most of their moonshines!

Right now I'm having Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter.
With cheesecake. With caramel drizzled on it. With sea salt sprinkled on it....

Hop-forward and to the point.

Actually, I could have Jimmy Dean Sausage with cheese melted on it and a big glass of Burgundy and be just as happy.

In honor of the President meeting with the King, and eliminating the tariff on Scotch whisky, (in large part due to the US exporting casks to Scotland for use) we learned how to tear down and rebuilds casks, in Scotland. Turning a bunch of staves and metal hoops into a barrel is a beautiful blending of art and science, done by true craftsmen (the Instructor was amazing to watch in action...I'm a hack, lol).

Thank you, King Charles III and Mr. President!

Vermut (vermouth) = fortified, herb-infused wine.

In Spain, it's a midday ritual, served over ice with an orange slice or olive, usually before lunch.

Taste: herbal, slightly bitter, a touch sweet.

Bottom line: I like it.

Sardines on grilled Naan bread with miso butter... darn tasty!

I love a good Vermouth, it gets a bad rep because of bars using old vermouth but when treated like an Aperif its really nice. Vermouth and Soda is a great refreshing drink for a mid day siesta and I prefer vermouth to wine in a Kalimotxo.

I've heard of peanuts in coke before. I don't get it....? The salt maybe?

Used to do this in high school. 1963-1967. Was just what everyone was doing.

Stanley cup playoffs. Maybe bloody Mary's, Maybe vodka or tequila drinks. It varies.

Peanuts (must be Planters!) WITH coke is so sooo satisfying. Never heard of peanuts in coke. Add rum and it's epic!

Years ago I learned how to make the perfect martini. Put 5 ice cubes in a shaker. Add 1oz vermouth. Shake 5 times. Pour off the vermouth through a strainer. Add 2 oz gin and a teaspoon of maraschino liqueur. Shake 3 times. Strain into a martini glass, garnish with an olive. Pour it down the sink. Put 2 ice cubes in an Old Fashioned glass. Pour in 2 oz of a top shelf whiskey. Enjoy.

Gin sucks.

You just have to get better gin, try a barrel aged if you're coming from Bourbon, Ransom has a good one.

Ransom Genepi, I got it as a chartreuse sub, it's not, but it is good in it's own right.

CocoVail IPA

Golden, lightly hazy. Citrus, tropical notes, a touch of pine with a clean, balanced finish.

ABV: ~ 6.4%

Verdict: 7/10
Easy-drinking, well-balanced—more chill than showy.


Vida Naranja

Bright, fresh, and exactly what it says it is. Clean orange flavor, lightly sweet, super refreshing, no drama, no complexity.

ABV: 0.0%

Verdict: 6.5/10

Simple, crisp, and does the job.

Wifey did the Margarita Sampler at Margarita Factory today (Happy Hour All Day Sunday).

Her top pick was the Horny Viking. (<<< here @roseburger for copying & pasting elsewhere)

My first choice was the Clooney.

Although Margarita Tasting Cut seriously into my Vodka Drinking Time.
