The Evening Tipple...

[Smithy]

Had a couple of bottles of a beautiful Bordeaux last night, a 2005 Chateau La Grande Clotte. Lovely stuff.

 

[rumblefish]

Off to bed with a few sips of Poire Williams.

 

[Smithy]

Lake Chalice Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, NZ. Absolutely delicious.

 

[Spitfire]

Nice choice Smithy.
I had a Cloudy Bay - also NZ. Great stuff!!!!!

 

[rumblefish]

Aviation cocktail, an easy sell to guests and Mrs. M.

See you there, Smithy.

V8 strawberry/banana fusion, rum, a banana, ice in a blender. :eusa_clap

If not that, then a nice red wine. Lately, Mondavi Vinetta 2005.

You don't know that one?
Tia Maria and rum. 50-50.
Works for me. I don't think this is one I invented.
Then again there was the Godiva liqueur and apple juice one.

I was thinking this had ice cream in it, like pistachio rumba. Hey!,,,maybe?...[huh]

Uh no. Tia Maria is great with rum. If you want ice cream then try
a Banana Boat

equal amounts of:
white rum
Crème de Bananes
Crème de Cacao White
Blend all these ingredients together with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream.

I work nightshift so "evening tipple" comes around 0730 or so. Two fingers of White Horse (blended) scotch-no ice , no water. Just air and a warm glass. Finishing it off now...

You're right James the blender doesn't have to go away for the winter.:eusa_clap

With bells on!

I'm having a steak and cheese pie for lunch today

Booze-wise, had some more Lake Chalice Sauv Blanc and a Speight's Pale Ale down at the pub yesterday evening.

There you go. :eusa_clap Call me over when you get a pitcher of them made.

 

[rumblefish]

Old Overholt would have to be the middle of the Road. I like Sazerac and Rittenhouse as well though. They are pretty much middle of the road---it just depends if you want to include the really expensive aged stuff.

Finally got my bottle of Rittenhouse bottled in bond today. Got to finish my Old Overholdt first, before I open it. So,,, I made a sazerac.

A Sazerac made with Old Overholt instead of Sazerac Rye!? Heresy I say.
