Dang! Looks tasty; dunno how I missed this while doomscrolling! All I need is Bourbon & a better sweet vermouth to try that. Any recommendations on the Bourbon & Vermouth?
My go-to cocktail with cognac is my take on a Sidecar.
- 1¼–1½ fl oz cognac
- ½ fl oz lemon juice (fresh is better for a fine spirit)
- ½ fl oz orange liqueur (I prefer Cointreau)
- optional: ¼-½ fl oz 2:1 simple syrup if the drinker does not like dry and tart
Add all ingredients to the bottom of the tin with a cup or two of ice (dry measure cup), close the shaker, and shake vigorously for 30-40 seconds. Rim the glass with sugar (use the juiced lemon to help the sugar stick), strain into the rimmed glass (a twist of lemon peel garnish is traditional), and enjoy!
I have been very happy with my "A Bar Above" Boston shaker set. Solid tool, very well constructed.
The Grassoti is very good but I have very few dry vermouths to compare with. General things I noticed vs M&R: Grassoti is lighter, less dry and has a wider bouquet of floral notes. I generally find it far more pleasant than M&R.
I decided to try an olive brine on its own because I am not a big olive eater (or rather was...they are quite good with a dirty martini). But had already fallen for the dirty gin martini and wanted to make it at home so bought Fever Tree based on my love for their tonic water.
Thank you! I had a lot of fun while, planning, making the drink and then setting up & taking the shot! (Also a fine excuse to pick up Viski crystal 😁)

Nope. Just disagree that its free. You and your sites are the product, you just got duped into taking the free lunch
Okay sure the internet is free and corpos are always going to give away web hosting...or i do self host and know that someone has to pay the bill despite it being "200 kb"...bruh, they aint giving it away for free, your content and everything you "own" are the price you pay for admission. Start up or mega corp, if you are not paying for it, you are the product
I disagree, someone has to pay for the internet, server and electricity to serve your supposedly "free" page. If you are talking about something like GitHub pages? Not really a solution if Microsoft, just...i dont know, got rid of freebies once they have you locked into hosting your content with them? Corpos would never ensure thay have you locked in as a consumer before turning the screws
