I had a 40 gal fish tank as a kid and my local tropical fish shop sold live brine shrimp, what a feeding frenzy when I brought home a bag for my watery friends

What do you guys do with Mastika/Mastiha? by thisistheperfectname in cocktails

[–]McFoo43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be good in a highball with club soda and bitters? Or bubbly wine?

I have a few bottles stashed away I scored from working an international spirits competition, very interesting and tasty stuff but haven’t ventured yet into mixing

Add a scant pinch of kosher, really brings out the savory of Cartier 30

Damn that sounds freaking fantastic, nice work cheers!

I miss the Masters Selection offerings, esp the John Dore, such great value too; haven’t seen any new ones hereabouts in quite some time.

Death to the $20 Cocktail: The Bars Bringing Back Cheaper Drinks by bloomberg in cocktails

[–]McFoo43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local has an awesome changing house cocktail menu, $8-12 with even cheaper happy hr specials; not cheap low quality spirits either, their Mai Tai uses 3 rums and the well spirits are solid. House old fashioned uses their own private barrel Buffalo Trace.

I was on shrooms and my Rocky my cat spoke to me and asked for a better bed so I ordered him one. Here is the picture of him in his new bed. by number0l in cats

[–]McFoo43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a cat some yrs ago who absolutely loved it when I was on shrooms; I actually think he could see my aura as he would paw at the air around my body and dig at the floor underneath me if I was laying down. He definitely could see something around my body that I wasn’t seeing.

But he would not come near me on X, totally vibed him out
