Homemade eggnog with some rye brought in the new year. 

The often overlooked Tennessee whiskey 

Cooler weather lovin' some stout, and a local brewery favorite for me.

 

Going back to what turned out to be an enjoyable mixed twelve pack for the kickoff to playoffs weekend ?

Took my parents out for a nice steak dinner tonight. Had 2 Bombay sapphire gin and tonics...bartender had them mixed perfectly.

By no means great, but being a "local" distillery on the east side of the Sierras gave it a lot of bonus points.

Count me in tonight sam adams winter lager on draft 

Couple of local NJ beers while making Chicken Marsala, the Recession Buster is a special release thanking the people for supporting them for 5$ a 4 pack of 16 oz beers!

Sitting in the low light having one after my eye docs appt 

 

I hate when they dialate (sp) my eyes

Last night's sipper for a coffee old fashioned with some orange bitters. Have to say it was a nice surprise.

Well yesterday was a little out of hand. Buddy's wife was out of town so we grilled and drank basically all day. Must have paced myself just right because I have no hangover after way too much Jameson.

Just threw some ribs on the smoker for GameDay and just poured myself a Paloma

I've actually got a pork butt smoking for carnita tacos. I love a good paloma...what's your recipe?

Super Bowl Sunday! Headed to my buddies house in a bit, he lives near a dam so there will be some bank fishing in the rain (wife is driving)

Nothing special. Tequlia, Squirt, and lime juice

Gotcha. I've ever tried squirt...I usually use Simply Grapefruit juice,lime,tequila and some club soda. Squirt would be a nice change.

Squirt is a staple in the Mexican community. The shelves are always empty around here. I can travel a few hours north into WI and they don't even carry Squirt at the grocery stores. Have to settle for Sprite and grapefruit juice.

I've passed by this one on some road trips and had to give it a try. My bourbon palette is still in its infancy, but I thought it was really solid and it'll be in my weekend sipper rotation.

Bourbon

I’ve picked this mixed 12 pack up in the past, I somehow remember them being a little better. Going to have to check the dates on the packaging.

You got that right, tastes way better than the Charles River in a white can you drink.

Hallo, Junger.

Bis spater!  

First time having anything other than their entry level bourbon. Have to say I'm a fan of this cask strength!
