Serious Cocktails: The Cocktail Bucket List Meme

I've had 44, but only a few of them in a bar.

I think this is useful, there are lots of times when I wonder what to try next.

Time for a Drink: Hemingway Daiquiri

I believe you'll find that the ones that Hemingway drank were sugarless, which I'm guessing was one of the reasons for adding the maraschino liqueur.

Serious Cocktails: Cocktail History, Revisited

The 2004 edition was incredible. Some day when some historian looks back at the current cocktail renaissance I think the first (2004) edition will be one of the milestones. For me, it was the second key book - building on Paul Harrington's 1998 Cocktail: The Drinks Bible for the 21st Century which might have been the book that made the Aviation famous (again).

The postman is bringing the 2009 edition to me, I check the mailbox every day .... Cocktails at 80

Time for a Drink: Painkiller

Yes, we are standing on that line waiting for Smuggler's Cove to open.

One can usually find Pussers (here in the Bay Area) at Trader Joes. Cocktails at 80

Time for a Drink: Ramos Fizz

first, yes, it is a fantastic drink - Queen of the egg white / fizz drinks in my book.

I'm impressed with you folks who shake. I could see doing this for one drink, but for any more than that, I use a blender - blend for a couple of seconds without ice, then add some ice and blend some more. One of the forums I'm on recommends using a milkshake type mixer - or a stick mixer - I haven't tried that yet. Cocktails at 80

While you are in NO go to Mr. B's on Royal. Order a Brandy Milk Punch. Starts with softened vanilla ice cream.Better than the bread pudding for desert. or for starters or for that matter make a few the whole meal.. While there go to Herbsaint. Have the Cadilac Sazerac?
