2) Clusterfuck (and they offer an on-line calculator to scale to one serving
): 1/2 oz Tennessee whiskey, 1/2 oz bourbon whiskey, 1/2 oz tequila, 1/2 oz light rum, 1/2 oz vodka, 1/2 oz butterscotch schnapps, 1 oz apple schnapps
Pour the tennessee whiskey, kentucky bourbon, tequila, rum and vodka into a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes. Shake well, and strain into a highball glass. Add the butterscotch and apple schnapps, and serve.
3) British Clusterfuck: 1.0 oz Gin, 1.0 oz Irish Cream, 1.0 oz Scotch
Directions: Mix Gin and Scotch then add a shot of Irish Cream.
I think the first recipe will have the worst outcome if drunken to the same amount as #2 or #3; after all, #1 has all supersweet liquors
honestly, it would have surprised me if there hadn't been a recipe yet

My favorite bartender at my favorite gayman video bar made me a Manhattan last weekend, that was basically a high ball full of maker's mark with a splash of sweet vermouth and 2 dashes of bitters.
It was
perfect .
nope, a "perfect manhattan" would have had white vermouth
actually, as far as I'm concerned, they can keep the bitter in but skip the vermouth altogether

One thing though, that design kind of communicates a really laid back, dreamy feel. Is that what you are looking for?
the dreamy appears on the naive side, though, for me
it is not an imaginative dreamy if you know what I mean.....
or a rebellious dreamy or an avantgarde dreamy.....

we are back from the Balloon festival
it was great
it was absolutely no comparison to last year, which was misreable due to heat AND humidity
at least today, it was a reasonable temperature and I was only at risk of overheating for an hour or so
(and not the entire time like last year
)

BTW,
Michael just spotted Srplus on the DIY network
(I should mention that he had a better haircut on screen than in his TUT photos
)

turns out a colleague's wife is totally in awe of my 4-wheeling hobby
I don't think she saw any pics yet, but her husband must have told her....

I gotta have the sweet / bitter / astringent balance

It's pretty good. I caught a couple epis of the previous series - Long Way Around - and it was rather enjoyable.
Too bad they use Nissans as their support vehicles.
