Weight or volume though?

Then I don’t think you’ve met people. Because I have met people and they do care.

What makes you doubt that? Sure, I’m an internet stranger and can’t know what situation you’re in, but I still wish you well, regardless of what you’ve been through. Is there a reason that makes you doubt that anyone might care even the very least?

It sounds like you’re in a bad place. Sorry to hear you feel that way.

Hey there, who hurt you so bad you gave up empathy all together?

Edit: added a missing ‘up’ in that sentence.

Ah, got it!

I recall the SA president saying they do have a violence problem, just not in the way trump is describing it.

What’s your point here?

I love me some Pisco Sour and would be fun to compare with Singani. Not sure I can get it where I live but I’ll see if I can.

Never heard of it. Is it similar to Pisco?

That was very well put, thank you.

Yeah you misread what I meant at least. Springsteen, according to the quote, says the America he sings of has been a beacon of liberty for 250 years, which obviously isn’t an accurate depiction. The vision and ideal was liberty for all and a right to pursuit of happiness, but with some very troubling caveats that put a huge stain on those ideals.

”Beacon of liberty“ is a bit strong when you have a rich history of segregation and slavery for a big portion of the population.

What’s with the log?

To add to other things that you try for the Old Fashioned: try maple syrup for the sweetener. Try a chocolate bitters if you can get it.

Yeah, Paloma’s are really nice, and agree on the added mezcal.

Glad you liked it!

Once you’re ready to experiment with it, you can try adding a piece of cucumber in the shaker. Adds some freshness to it which is nice on a warm day.

Can also try it with pieces of jalapeño in the shaker, without seeds. Ands a similar vegetal flavor but obviously a little spicy too.

I’ve probably only done this without the mezcal, but that could work too.

Edit:

If your into mezcal and if you like an Old Fashioned you can swap out the bourbon for mezcal. Not my favorite but can be fun to try.

My standard cocktail at home is a Tommy’s Margarita, sometimes with some added mezcal. Great if you like sours, like whiskey sour.

My proportions: (1,2,4) 1.5cl agave syrup 3cl fresh lime juice 6cl tequila (I prefer tequila reposado)

Shake well with ice. Serve with or without ice.

Don’t buy shitty tequila but it doesn’t have to be fancy. Should always be 100% agave, from Mexico, and never wear a hat.

And like I said, sometimes I do half and half with tequila and mezcal, so 3cl each. Mezcal is basically tequila, but the agave has been smoked under ground, which adds some nice smoky bites.

Not necessarily. It does prove that it legally should be optional.

The fact that there was a high profile case might indicate that it’s not as trivially optional as you make it seem.
