Or what has been your go to lately? I’m usually a whiskey and ginger kinda guy but I’m trying to branch out a little these days. What’re you drinking?

Currently sipping on a Paloma:

  • 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
  • .5oz lime juice
  • 4 oz Grapefruit soda (Jarritos today)
  • Pinch of salt

    For a cocktail, I’ll take a well executed Mojito 9/10 times. That other 1/10 is often a White Russian.

    Else a gin & tonic as a long drink, as long as they got decent stuff.

    These days I have maybe 2-3 drinks a year at most, so I’m not willing to settle for inferior ingredients.

      Well executed being the key here! I don’t know how many Mojitos I’ve had with just 5 limp mint leaves barely muddled in them

        Yeah, or using syrups for lime, mint and even sugar. I’ve once received something that can only be described as a glass of sprite with a dash of toothpaste. Utterly repulsive.
