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
If you’re ok with bitter flavors, I’m a big fan of the Negroni.
I prefer mine straight up so it doesn’t dilute too much.
I love Negroni. It needs to be on the rocks tho. If you do it properly, it needs to be cold. Also in terms of quantity, no ice means a ton more alcohol, I prefer to drink 3 properly made if the goal is to get drunk.
I prefer its big sibling the Boulevardier.
Express an orange peel over and garnish with it
But if I have good rye I’m making a Manhattan so there’s a booze cherry as “dessert”.
