When I hit up a local dive bar my tabs run from $12-$30. Depending on if I buy drinks for other people or if I'm buying (craft) beer all night. My personal max in rum n cokes is like 6 drinks( for the whole night). Otherwise I'm just blackout drunk.

Didn't read past the introductory paragraphs, but depending on what's available at the $20/hour tier, that seems like a reasonably cheap way to sample nice liquors without buying bottles on faith or paying through the nose on a per-drink basis.

:shrug: His main point is to see if it's "worth it" He goes to a dive bar and orders 12 drinks all at once and complains that the first bar cut him off after he chugged 6 cocktails in 30 mins. Where as the local dive just didn't give a poo poo. Though 5 of his drinks were Busch lights (lmao) at the dive so wouldn't count those, personally. At least compared to what I'm assuming is a regularly mixed cocktail.

Also, Applebees apparently doesn't give a poo poo either with their dollaritas

And he does this overwrought thing where he thinks he needs to come back in disguise because he’ll get thrown out if he’s “caught.” Either he’s a paranoid jackass or he behaved way worse on his first visit than he’s letting on and he’s bullshitting about his tolerance.

Made my own mulled wine (red wine + brandy + spices) in the slow cooker last night. We had 4 inches of snow and I had to clear out the drive way by hand because the snowblower is on the fritz. Now I am relaxing with a cup of hot mulled wine and it feels great.

Do tell.

My hot toddy recipe is an Old Fashioned lengthened with hot water, maybe an amaro as a modifier too. Hot citrus juice is grody to me. Give me a generous swath of lemon and/or orange peel in my toddy, that's all I want.

iirc last year the thread got into citrus vs. no citrus in toddy chat, with some people loving it and others thinking it was like cough syrup.

I just faked the ratios. I already had a lime halved from something else, so instead of a lemon and whiskey toddy I did:

2 oz gold tequila <-- my silver is at the back of the booze cabinet :effort:
0.5 lime
~0.5 oz triple sec
~0.25 oz agave <-- I normally don't in margaritas, figured it'd need it in a toddy

Tasted but decided it didn't need any adjustment

It's hard to disassociate citrus in toddies from the taste of Theraflu once you make the connection. We leave it out of our house toddies, and if it ever goes in we typically only add a barspoon.

I cannot abide hot citrus. It's corrosive to the throat and sickening to the belly. I'll take my hot cocktails with hot water (maybe tea?) and liquors, and perhaps with something like apple cider if we must have juice.

There is an idea of a Yuns, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.
Maybe it's cultural but I grew up drinking citron/yuja tea and so hot citrus is pretty normal for me.

Best hot toddy I ever had called for de-acidified orange juice and a bunch of zest. So you could always do that.

I mean orange juice already has low acidity. Before I replied, I did a cursory google and found 1) science article and 2) a Tropicana brand, and 3) a shitload about acid-adjusted upwards.

Did you create said toddy, Sextro, or did someone serve it to you? Now I'm intrigued.

Ironically, they're not far off base for the time period. They're just angling toward traditional punch rather than toddy.

I really ought to give Rumple Minze another chance. It figured heavily in a college bender that remains the worst of my life, and I haven't had a drop of it since.

The temperature's only just started dropping here, so I haven't jumped on the hot drink bandwagon yet this year, but last year I was mostly doing toddies with tea (mostly rooibos because I had leftover bags from making punch), rum, and sherry. When I did hot chocolate, I was spiking it with green Chartreuse, which is apparently a Verte Chaud.

I made a butter rum hot toddy couple years back that was pretty decent. DO you like butter? Would you drink boozy butter? I got the recipe for you! Actually, no. I found the recipe online and didn't do it right. Butter, rum, simple syrup, cinnamon sticks. Let it all get to heat (or until butter is melted) and serve.

Oh poo poo, I didn't know it had a name! I'd heard it was traditional in the French Alps and tried it and found it to be very delicious. My friend is a manager at a small-batch chocolate shop and we've been throwing around the idea of a Verte Chaud-inspired bar of dark chocolate with some sort of Green Chartreuse candy crumbled and mixed in. Does that sound cool? Should we do it?

I just left the liquor store, where I got a tiny bottle of Hennessy as well as a big ol bottle of some very botanical gin I like that's great value for money IMO (New Amsterdam is the brand). The (very young) cashier told me that he "likes henny straight, but I really like it mixed with mountain dew." I "ah, niced" him because I dont poo poo on people for their drink of choice, but I'm always happy to meet another cultured gentleman in my travels.

I disagree. Well, compared to Gordon's it sure is lol. That was my go-to before I tried new Amsterdam and my wife likes it cuz it is way more botanical than it is "piney," which she dislikes.

e, I guess "citrus" rather than "botanical" would be a more apt descriptor, I guess

e2: also, I smoked for 16 years so my palate is garbage
