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

    French 75 (use good champagne)
    French 76 (use good champagne)
    Old fashioned (use expensive cherries)
    Side car (use orange brandy instead of orange liqueur)
    Manhattan (don’t skimp on bitters)
    Cosmopolitan (throw the used lime into the shaker)
    Whiskey sour (use egg white)
    Gimlet (add a cedar leaf for more flavor)

    Fresh fruit is a must to make the best drinks.

      Second the whiskey sour (with egg white) and the Manhattan…

      …and I’ll add a Moscow Mule when on a sunny patio and it’s a scorching day

      Whiskey sour (use egg white)

      I’ve never heard of putting an egg white in those. What does that do?

            Try it before deciding. It’s really good. Dry shake first, then put ice and shake again. I’ll take a whiskey sour any way someone wants to make it, but for an amaretto/bourbon sour an egg white is essential, it is so much better with it than without.
