Yesterday was a Gin and Tonic but I'm afraid after today the most I can handle is diet. Tangerine lime soda water.

Tonight I want a glass of muscato.......
Jim Beam and L&P
What's L&P?
It's world famous in New Zealand. Its a carbonated drink that is not as sweet as coke and goes perfectly with Bourbon, Southern Comfort of Vodka.

I could share my biscotti. with you
I've never had the two together....sounds delectable.
So it's a lemon-flavored drink that some (lots of?) Kiwis mix with Southern Comfort - this seems to explain many things at once.
The trouble is that it doesn't really taste like Lemon. It's just hard to describe. I did do a ring around to ask people what they thought it tasted like and no one could give me a straight answer either. One odd one was mellow, which I have no idea what mellow would even taste like.
It's similar to the subtle taste of ennui, with just a hint of oaken-aged enlightenment.
I am currently enjoying the always-underrated combination of bad coffee and Flip Flop Pinot Grigio. My palate is grumbling, and I say, "pipe down, whiner! What's better than being a wide-awake, nervous drunk???????"

On my end, this was a pinot noir night. Some Rex Goliath to begin, followed by one of the "Trader Joe's Exclusive" brands. Both were completely drinkable. Of course, swine swill would have tasted good alongside the wifely one's flourless chocolate cake. Won't need sex for, oh, 10 or 12 hours after that plate of holistic goodness.
Heheh. No! A sleepy, sober boring son-of-a-bitch is my NORMAL personality.
I have had good luck with Rex Goliath wines. A wine distributor friend recommended it to me as a reliable, fairly cheap wine. And seeing as how I pride myself on reliability, cheapness and whining, it seemed a good bet.
Enjoy that flourless cake! I thought that was called "Hershey's syrup"?
Maker's Mark on the rocks. *cheers*
Courvoisier, neat
