She loves the smell so she asked for a sip. LOL.I think it was a Talisker - her eyes watered.. She still loves the smell but won't touch it.
Sucks to be you. 😉 Olive juice rocks. Gonna have a titos on the rocks extra dirty with 2 olives now in your honor.
You all do you. I like olives. I like gin. I like olives in gin. I don’t like olive brine in gin. For the ketchup haters (I am not one) it is like taking something ketchup based, like your favorite BBQ sauced ribs, and then drenching them in ketchup.

Using vodka in a dirty martini makes you a filthy animal.

oh man, you are reminding me that mint julep season is right around the corner.
Thankfully, we just put a contract on a house in Lexington, VA, which while not lexington Kentucky, is still horse country, and still moonshine country. But I'm going to have to check whether there's a good patch to grow some mint when we do our home inspection...
We hold an annual Kentucky Derby Party. The first one I told Mrs Radley I was going to make a couple of pitchers of mint juleps, and she said, “Nobody will want to drink that!” They drained both pitchers and still do every year.
In honesty, though, when I think mint I am more in mind of a Mojito, which I love.
+1 on the mojitos - I like to turn them into slushies on occasion by throwing them into my ice cream maker, though the yield is way too low.
I got my julep recipe from a guy who died of liver complications. It starts out with a ratio of something like 7 oz bourbon and 2 oz syrup...and ends with "the recipe multiplies nicely if more than one is to be consumed." In my house, the single serving serves two. But it's damn good.
