Chartreuse Float


Chartreuse Float.


Well I uploaded this pic waaaaay long ago...in my old apartment.  so much has changed.
down to business:

recipe:
1    oz green chargreuse
1    oz yellow chargreuse
1/2 oz cherry liqueur 
1/2 oz Laphroag (pronounced Lah-fRoy-ah)

I had this at The Refinery in Vancouver.  it wasn't on the menu.  I really enjoyed that night.
mind you it was a couple of years ago.  Have to go back.

my take on this drinK:

'kind of reminds me of sucking on a well used bike tire...in a good way.
it's also kind of smells like a fresh band-aid.  These don't sound good I know, but this is A VERY GOOD DRINK!  I LOVE IT!

there.

In 2 Deep

mm-good.

The Paper Airplane


Another Negroni variation with Ramazotti.  just fine! mm-hm!

3 mezcals


These are all great.  I think I rushed the tasting.  Scorpion was my fave when tasting it a Clive's thought it was a different--this one is not a tobala :(  still good thought.  These are to be savoured not shot or consumed to get hammered. 

Foreigner


A variation of the negroni.  A delight.
