so its a heat wave here so i cant go with someting heavy.

tonights coctail is the haleys comet (obviously spelled differently than the astronomical sort)

1.5 oz gin (i go with hendricks)
1/4 oz st. germain
1/4 of grapefruit (best) or OJ (backup)

shake over ice, pour into glass

top with ginger beer, i aim for about 4oz (third of a can) for these ratios.

its a really light and tasty summer drink, i make it in 2 gallon gatorade coolers for beach days with slightly higher fractions of juice and ginger so you dont die.

oh weird I always thought a haleys was a French 75 (gin, lemon juice, simple, and champagne) with st germain
also, my new roommate is a nola-bred bartender and our dish soap dispenser is a repurposed st Germain bottle :3:

it's the best gin that you're almost guaranteed to find in every bar. I think tanqueray is not great and kinda oily somehow
