Anyone for a nightcap?

Update: Meeting went well with the lovely creators of Makers Mark... You maybe have heard or read from their site, but in case you have not... they have officially reversed the decision to change the recipe. Um, yaytastic! Never underestimate the power of a properly utilized pout and the right shoes. *Knuckles dist from her shirt*.

Yeah, I do what I can. You are welcome. :)

Tonight in honor of this happiness, I am having some Makers Mark neat. Rest easy all, and cheers!
 
Alright, so maybe this belongs on the boring thread given the lack of creativity... But oh well.

Makers Mark neat.

Cheers all!
 
Important question.

I would like to start drinking some kind of hard liquor with fresh squeezed lime and nothing else. I don't like to drink sugary sweet stuff.

Now, the obvious choice, I guess, would be vodka but I really dislike vodka on principal. It's essentially tasteless. I get the argument for good vodka, I do, but I'm not enthused. So what else is there? Tequila I guess? I feel like rum and tequila are very specific. I'm looking for an all purpose cocktail.

Suggestions? Keep in mind I'm very particular. I'm no 2 buck chuck girl.

Hendricks, a splash of water. I consider the lime a perversion therof. It's one of the few G's that's better without T, just some water like a Victorian waif would want. Lime would work if you want it.
 
have recently discovered mojitos.

and mules

and the chilli bloody mary


Thankfully I really don't drink often or much when I do, but last night called for a celebratory drink...so a belated salute
 
A generous pour of Glenmorangie at the end of today's conference. Now I'm waiting for the margaritas to arrive at home. Then some possibly fine Shiraz from thd McLaren Vale region down under to go with the chipotle lime grilled chicken. Mellow is in my future. :D

Which McLaren winery??

There are more than a few decent ones down that end...
 
Let's see, went to the hospital last night. No need for well wishing, it wasn't me. Still, a "lovely" reason to check if my hearts still ticking. :eek:

made a friend, lost a friend, and still rewriting my stories too dang much! heh.

Another day put to rest.

Some Old Grand Dad Bourbon for me. Cheers!
 
Ah. I see. Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Thanks. It's a great place for people watching. Very much a hangout for folks deeply into heavy metal. Every employee seems to have been hired for the specific reason of having wilder ink than the previous hire's. the burgers frequently are named Best in the City and for good reasons. We had to wait for an hour on a rainy, storm night to get our table.
 
I want a chicken sandwich from SRO something terrible. :(

Brutally cheap Montepulciano from TJ's.

OK, I'll bite. What's a Montepulciano like? A year or so ago you sold me on drinking viognier (at least in a blend with chard), so I'm open to something new from the Netz.
