I’d bet she would. Adding it to my to-try list, thanks!

We made tepache last summer and it was fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone who hasn’t tried it. I wanted to try bottling it but got too scared from all the explosion stories online.

My brother in law makes mead and he’s had a couple explosions. And once he gifted us a bottle that we didn’t drink for a while and when we opened it it rocketed everywhere. Only had about an inch left in the bottle afterword haha.

Martinez sounds cool!!

I made a Black Manhattan and yeah it’ll be my new Manhattan go-to for sure. Super good.

Tried Mezcal for the first time yesterday and am a big fan so I’ll have to try a Dead Lady soon, currently don’t own Falernum though

Sounds like really cool modifications! Sometimes I wish I wasn’t such a lightweight so I could experiment faster…

I really liked my Old Fashioned last night, I mentioned in the high-scores edit to my original post that next time I’ll try diluting more and I probably won’t use sugar cubes moving forward (simple syrup instead).

The Monkey Gland was good too! But see above for why I probably won’t make it again 😜 The history just makes my nethers tingle in a bad way.

The Teresa was a great suggestion for me! Crazy how close it is to a Negroni even though it kinda comes from a different direction

Alcohol destroys my sleep so I usually only drink Friday and Saturdays, but the fun of making drinks has made me want to get really good at mocktails. Sometimes I make a good one, but it’s kinda hard to not just end up with super sweet juice…

But I always drink my water without ice. No judgement on ice people, but to me water is for hydration and ice just slows you down. /s

I tried a basic recipe first and it was great! Super excited to riff on this drink. My wife loves St. Germaine so that’ll be fun to try. I put this drink pretty high on my high-scores list that I edited at the bottom of my original post

My friend, I loved this cocktail and will be enjoying them the rest of my life. Hadn’t had mezcal until today and I really liked it. Wife is a big fan too. Thanks!!

This is the recipe I tried and it was excellent!

Probably depends on local air quality and how recently the snow fell. But I and everyone I know eats snow so I hope so…

Thanks for the suggestions! Added to my to-try list. And yeah life’s been great leaving that church. I’m still trying to accept that Sundays are fun now and nothing to dread on Saturday evenings 😅

And my best 3x3 solve was 18.83 seconds. But my average is closer to 24 seconds, that solve was just kinda a lucky one!

Oooh, haven’t heard it called the Twice Up, but here in Montana the Whiskey Ditch is popular which is just whiskey and water. In winter we use snow and I definitely like snow/cold water with mine. I guess people here used to use actual ditch water which I kind of love and will never try

Looks like a great book for me, just ordered a copy!

Gonna be my first protest. Was gonna go for Canada but now it feels more like a protest for every country besides Russia and North Korea…

This was me two days ago! But on a bike and looking generally more like a homeless man than a wizard

My mom is a school counselor at a tiny school in a tiny town in Montana. There is no way the school stays open. Or 90% of our public schools for that matter. Part of me wants to tell her “I told you so” but generally it just sucks so bad I don’t have the energy

I’m currently trying to figure out how to use RSS for this reason.

Yeah - I just wish our leaders (Democrat ones) would call for protests at least. It would help. Instead we twiddle our thumbs as our institutions are destroyed. I haven’t heard of a single protest for the tariffs today that nobody wants but Trump and Putin…

France is literally protesting better than the USA over our own issues…

Well, how’d everyone do? I had to order some magic cards so I stayed up until midnight to do it lol. I also need to replace a pvc pipe under my kitchen sink so that waited until today and I’ve been getting water from the bathroom…
