So much for mixology

Do not mix an ounce and a half of cran-raspberry juice, half an ounce of Captain Morgan, and half an ounce of Myer’s dark rum with an ice cube and a teaspoon of honey. It’s kind of lame and too strong to be tasty.

Edit: Maybe I didn’t eat enough today, but the single ounce of liquor in this little drink is really fucking strong.

Hard at work

I got off of drill earlier than expected, and since this morning’s wakeup was 4:00 AM and tomorrow’s is 3:30 AM, I decided to devote the rest of the day to drinking lemon drops. Here’s the recipe:

In a cocktail shaker, combine the following:
1.5 oz. vodka (preferably Grey Goose or another brand of a similar quality)
1.5 oz. lemon juice
.5 oz. sugar syrup or to taste
2 ice cubes
Shake and pour into martini glass, top with club soda.

I’ve had three in a very short time and am making ample use of the backspace key, as my copyeditor instincts continue to override the alcohol.
