Or what has been your go to lately? I’m usually a whiskey and ginger kinda guy but I’m trying to branch out a little these days. What’re you drinking?

Currently sipping on a Paloma:

  • 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
  • .5oz lime juice
  • 4 oz Grapefruit soda (Jarritos today)
  • Pinch of salt

    French 75 (use good champagne)
    French 76 (use good champagne)
    Old fashioned (use expensive cherries)
    Side car (use orange brandy instead of orange liqueur)
    Manhattan (don’t skimp on bitters)
    Cosmopolitan (throw the used lime into the shaker)
    Whiskey sour (use egg white)
    Gimlet (add a cedar leaf for more flavor)

    Fresh fruit is a must to make the best drinks.

      Second the whiskey sour (with egg white) and the Manhattan…

      …and I’ll add a Moscow Mule when on a sunny patio and it’s a scorching day

      I like the cut of your jib! 🎩

      Great list. Missing Sazerac, but someone else has you covered already.

      Off to find a cedar leaf, I haven’t tried that…

      Never heard them called leaves before, only needles so that’s cool.

      Gin and Tonic with fresh Rosemary and Orange is nice. Bet a cedar leaf would be nice in there too.
