What are You Drinking RIGHT NOW? II

[Whiskeyman53]

Enjoying a pour of a great barrel proof bourbon.

[Beefchop]

Old Fashioned.

[WayneT]

Cappuccino and hot chocolate…at the beach. Yes, I brought my own espresso machine. If ya gotta have, ya gotta have.

[barelfly]

Bambino Plus!!!!!!!

[WayneT]

barelfly I’m extremely pleased with how well the Bambino Plus makes espresso compared to my former machine. It’s all I need since I drink one cup a day, maybe two if I’m in the mood.

[barelfly]

I have the same one. I’ve dialed it in and think I make a cappuccino that can compete with any boutique coffee shop! do I go a little overboard and weigh my beans and ensure the single dose grind is exact and then weigh the output and make sure its within about 30 seconds or so….. why yes I do! I know this machine is automatic, but….I like to manually make my espresso and froth my milk I’d recommend the Bambino Plus to anyone!

[Red Man]

Enjoying a great beer with a great view!

I’ll never tire of this pour, it really should become a weekly pour, tomorrow I get to open and share the rye version.

[Richard Chrz]

So I finally poured it. That is soooooo good! My friend who cam over to have a pour and a pizza really enjoyed it as well,we did them side by side with the SBBP as well, the rye really shines over it,

He brought me a bottle of Blanton’ s and a bottle of scotch to have here, as a Christmas gift, all I offered him was cranberry walnut bread and a pizza.

[Alan Brice]

Sounds pretty even trading to me. Happy Merry Richard,

[barelfly]

Made two OFs with Wild Turkey 101 Rye…my son…thought it was time he learned to enjoy one of these great cocktails and make sure he knows a good OF to a bad OF!

[Wedunne]

Scored a bottle of Bulleit at the office gift exchange potluck, so I made whiskey sours. Used maple syrup instead of simple syrup. Turned out pretty good.

[barelfly]

Tis the season! And extra good Old Republic egg nog with this yummy rum from Mosca !!!!

[Whiskeyman53]

It's f"RYE"day Richard Chrz. Time to restock.

[barelfly]

Here’s my new to me way of making an Old Fashioned - froze mandarin slices in the ice blocks. When I dropped the cherry in, I realized I should have froze the cherry as well. But just a fancy way of serving, saw something similar on Instagram and thought it was pretty cool! Next go, I’m just going to do the peel by doing better cuts so there isn’t pith showing. I may express the water with a rind as well prior to putting in the freezer. It’s a cool idea, I just need to work on the deliver a bit better than what I show here - that dang pith showing drives me nuts!

[Alan Brice]

It looks fairly awesome to me.

[WayneT]

Oh, don’t be so pithy about it. It’s not that pithyful. 😏

[barelfly]

WayneT - I didn’t pithy the fool who had to drink it….

[SheilaAnn]

Early Christmas present. it’s rather interesting. I tried a sip or two neat. Then added some ice. It was better over ice. Then made this cocktail. Groundbreaking? No. Would this work in a white sangria? Hells yeah!

[Whiskeyman53]

I finished my Christmas shopping today so what would a guy do to celebrate? Stop by a local brewery/taproom for a couple celebratory brews. Brought home a few of my favorites to enjoy.

[Alan Brice]

Special times call for a lil sumpin special.

[barelfly]

I’ve yet to see one of the bottles available! How is it? And does it compare to anything?

[Alan Brice]

barelfly it is 130proof but not hateful hot. I love Bookers but can no longer afford it. This is as good as if not a viable replacement.

[Richard Chrz]

Is it as good as I hope and believe it is? Salute

[Richard Chrz]

I purchased this for the first time and took it to my parents house for holiday gathering yesterday.
