Good morning!

My mid-life crisis is turning out to be quite a good bit of fun!

Made two Old Fashioneds, but didn’t snap photos. The first was with Old Forester 1920. So cherry! Yum. The second was with Knob Creek Single Barrel Select. The nuttiness really came through, especially juxtaposed with the OF 1920. It was also delicious and I usually prefer the higher proof. But my wife prefers nutty vs cherry, so she got that one.

New Riff Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye. It’s good.

Nothing special, just a red bull vodka. Like the glassware?

It’s been posted here a few times by others. Sometimes I use egg white, sometimes I don’t.

I usually use barrel proof Bourbon. I also bump it up to an ounce of Bourbon and 2oz of Amaretto.

I’m a big margarita fan, if you want the same taste for half the cost and you have a total wine, try El Padrino to replace the Patron.

From a couple months ago:

I'm pretty sure this is my favorite sour recipe. Like you, I usually bump it to 2oz Amaretto and 1oz Bourbon, but I always use the egg white.

One of the few sweet cocktails that I could drink all night long.

I found a bottle of Lillet Blanc on sale this week, so I tried a Vesper martini last night. I gotta say that I really like it.

Botanist gin, New Amsterdam vodka, and Lillet Blanc. No lemon - I think it's just awesome as is.

Blood orange whiskey sour, with 1792 Full Proof.

This is interesting. Not bad.

Hmmm. I'm not a fan of maple unless it is real maple syrup. Maple flavored <insert food here> just never tastes good to me. I wonder how I would feel about this one.
