Dram of the Day

View attachment 7222Thought I would change it up a little tonight before going back to the grind tomorrow! A couple Gin n Tonics should do it.....although a little heavy on the gin....not much room for club soda! Just a splash, but the tonic syrup is delicious! Cheers all!

I have a complicated relationship with gin. I like the taste of it, and love the way I can have snacks in it with the olives and no one thinks that's weird, so no reaching for snacks for me (side note, a properly seasoned Bloody Mary is essentially a watery shrimp cocktail, fuk your celery, I want six shrimp and a Maine lobster in there) ... but I don't think there's anything that f's me up faster than gin. It's not gradual either, everything is fine and then one sip later it's all over but the wet wipes.

I understand completely! I don't drink gin or vodka with any regularity....but love me a raunchy bloody Mary here and there and I love your reference about a seafood platter on a skewer in one! I'm definitely a whiskey/whisky drinker, but will also suck down a Keystone light at a bonfire!
 
@soulsea - listen man, I love your collection and I'm an avid single malt drinker, but when it comes to getting effed up in a hurry, and keeping a good lively spirit for hours, you cannot replace Vodka. Grey Goose, either straight, or as a Moscow mule, or with Ginger ale, and I go all night.
On one of my last trips to Asia Pre Covid I spent the night from 8 PM till 5 am bar hoping with some friends and having a grand old time. Can't wait for the world to open again......

@soulsea Were you able to enjoy your new crystalware this fine evening?

My mom’s in town.

No amount of quality stemware can help ... swigs from the bottle as I unsuccessfully search for expired Xanax in the couch pillows.

So no would be the answer to your question.
 
I might have Caliche’s view beaten this week. Any guesses as to my location?

I like to take the Zen approach and avoid Xanax, remember out with the bad air, in with the good air, and repeat.

And shit if that don't work we can always go back to Vodka, if that is not working we can always go back to more Vodka, I'm sure you see where I'm going with that......
 
Starting early this week, got the call from the dealer that the truck is going from rail yard to Maine in next day or two. Pre celebratory Dram between these two.

Thank you @Caliche, need to find those. We don’t see much Mezcal up here in the north east. Feel like I’m missing out on something amazing!!! 😁😁😁😁

Be very careful, I hear the expired pharmaceuticals can be very dangerous............ hope all is well my friend!
