          There's not much to do in Longview other than drink. I worked there for about six months.  It was a long six months.

            Home made Vodka — using the “First Aid” shot glass makes sense with this stuff.

                Nice pics and drinks.  Sometimes an easy highball is the perfect transition from week to weekend.

                    Jefferson’s Ocean Voyage 23. I just finished a Voyage 20 last week and I can say that batch was good but this is better. A bit sweeter, saltier, and a touch more viscous. I need to buy another bottle while it’s at our local Costco.

                      @Appfaff man I love Amaro & Campari. I grew up in the Italian neighborhood “The Hill” in St Louis but never drank them until recently. The Campari spritz is the perfect summer drink!

                          I call this the Montenegroni since it’s 3 ingredients and 1:1:1. I think it’s superior to the standard “white Negroni” which is Suze, Lilet, and gin.

                              Yeah I asked if they had anything like that at the bar last night and the bartender laughed in my face.

                                Ha well we all have our strengths.

                                Amaro is kinda like Tiki, there are bars that focus on it, but the rest don’t incorporate it much. Amari are difficult to work with since they’re all so different and there is no cultural touchstone to fall back on. What I mean by that is the daiquiri is how you drink hot, un-aged rum without coughing: lime and sugar, ice if you have it. However, amari are all drunk straight as an after dinner drink in Italy (or France to a lesser extent). Italians are perplexed as to why you might mix an amaro, as it is already a blend of ingredients macerated in alcohol and sweetened. Said simply, an amaro is something of a pre-bottled cocktail. That, and as I said earlier they are very different and one can’t be substituted for another. Montenegro is nothing like Ramazzotti is nothing like Fernet.

                                A straightforward one tonight. Hurricane (simple version): 1:1:2 lemon juice, passion fruit syrup, and black rum.

                                          My wife and I have promised to hit a Chevy’s hard when we feel fully comfortable with going to an indoors place (and line up some weekend childcare). We know there is better food and better drinks available, but it’s a guilty pleasure.

                                            Anyone looking for a subtly plated, sweet dark sherry finish whisky then check this out, delicious stuff.

                                            Bowmore 18, PX sherry finish.  Originally released as a travel exclusive but can be  found on some online whisky sales websites.

                                            There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.
