January is over, Wednesday is here and I am having a cocktail before supper.

A Sundowner.

2 parts cognac

1 part Galliano

1 part orange liqueur

1 part lemon juice

Shake and dirty pour into rocks glass.

Delicious as you would expect. This is a little less lemon than the standard recipe (making avgolemolo and needed most of the juice for that) and is a little too sweet, it does need the extra tartness; and honestly I might also sub fresh OJ for the liqueur and try that, but I do love Galliano in orange juice.

I think you could mix this into a very, very good crowdpleaser punch for a party with half this and 1/4 Sprite and 1/4 soda water.

Comics not related just going to read them this weekend

    The drink looks good, and seems like it’d be nice! The comic looks interesting too. I was surprised to find it’s old enough to drink that cocktail.

      I’m assuming an “open” pour where you don’t strain anything.

        Yes, shake and just pour everything in the shaker into the glass, don’t strain it over new ice.
