The Lion’s Tail. Outstanding.
First I’ve heard of it, and it sounds delicious.
We discussed this in the Game Zone earlier this year. Believe you dropped the recipe for homemade allspice dram.
Also, I will be drinking a Lion’s Tail shortly. Because it’s Sunday afternoon.

Thinking of getting into making my own Negroni/Boulevardiers. Are they shaken or stirred?
They’re all booze. Stirred.
Not a lion’s tail, though. I have no recollection.

AH-HA! Great memory from 5 months ago
Then read the next post.
This sounds easy and interesting, not sure I’ve ever tasted chamomile tea
In Spanish speaking places it’s called manzanilla, so maybe you’d know it by that name.

I love that town south of Puerto Vallarta
I fixed myself a Boulevardier tonight. It’s pretty tasty.
I fixed my first in a while and there will be more in the near future, I can tell you that.
I’m don’t think I’d use my 18-year old Macallan for that (which was what the Macallan site recommends). What did you use?

I used Still Austin. But I’ve passed the point in my life where drink cheap booze in anything. I’m not using Louis XIII in my Sidecar or anything, but I ain’t mixing with Cutty Sark either.
Drinking free beer and wine on the ship makes me think if it were not for the damn meetings, I would join AA.

Because I fly a lot, I get upgraded sometimes and also get access to airport lounges which have free drinks. If I have flown a few times in a single week, I will find myself thinking to myself, “just because it’s there and free doesn’t mean you have to drink it“.

I try to limit alcohol when I fly. Alcohol is a diuretic and exacerbates the effects of jet lag, especially on long flights. Maybe a glass of wine in the lounge or with dinner on the plane, but too much wears me out. Plus most lounges in the US serve the cheap stuff for free. If you’re on an Emirates A380, however…

If you are ever in the Waco area, stop by the Balcones Distillery. I think that the Baby Blue is particularly good.

Baby Blue is my favorite. The Brimstone is definitely different, and has its time and place.
