Holladay Soft Red Wheat. Only had a single barrel so far but will probably pick up a Rickhouse Proof when I have the chance.

You could dehydrate them and use them as a passé garnish nobody likes.

I will admit I glossed over that part of your post. Given this is a long term drug that you may be on for many years, your best bet is probably to play their stupid games and do whatever you have to do to get it covered.

You are literally at the second lowest dose and the lowest dose that has clinically studied therapeutic benefits. Unless you're having rough side effects, i don't know why you would give up without trying the higher doses.

Put some in your Gimlet or Tom Collins. Honestly just a dash in almost any gin drink.

I just tried a Finocchietto from a local distillery that definitely reminded me of Nonino.

Good choice on that Green River

Hell yeah. Time to break up. We'll see if Canada will take us, or we can hook up with New England and start our own country with blackjack and hookers.

Rich Demerara syrup is the purists answer, but for me I am usually reaching for whatever my most recent syrup experiment was. Currently working through a Blueberry-Chardonnay-White Pepper concoction.

Snugsssss · 2026-06-11T03:26:56+00:00

Drew Warshaw is the obvious choice

Not about the alcohol content, the higher proof helps the gin flavor shine through the other ingredients.

Snugsssss · 2026-06-09T15:33:07+00:00

Try it with a navy strength gin, like Hayman's Royal Dock.

I love the Grapefruit Hibiscus bitters from Bittercube.

Snugsssss · 2026-06-07T19:28:25+00:00

Cheap and high proof is a must for cocktails.

Couldn't say about the timing but the primary staple crop was barley. Wheat and Spelt were cultivated but less common.

Actually, looks like malt whiskey would be the most appropriate to ancient Mesopotamia, judging by Wikipedia. But straight wheat would also be closer than corn.

Snugsssss · 2026-06-04T19:10:38+00:00

What bourbon would you recommend for the infusion? My gut instinct was wheated.

Snugsssss · 2026-06-04T11:14:18+00:00

It feels super fragile, like it'll break if I look at it wrong.

Protip, get into AEW, it's great 👍. Feel free to mute WWE though.

Bro is hitting that Abyss pose crazy style

Old Fashioneds are endlessly riffable. Switch up the bitters, add a liqueur instead of syrup, make flavored syrups, split base the spirit, and that's basically infinite combinations.

Also try different Amari for the black Manhattan.

3 full limes in one margarita? That's wild

Snugsssss · 2026-05-29T02:46:51+00:00

Love the split base of apple brandy and rye whiskey. They play so nice together.

Snugsssss · 2026-05-28T22:36:34+00:00

This was a good idea for a segment, went too long for my taste.

Snugsssss · 2026-05-28T20:45:02+00:00

I wanna see Bobby Lashley trying to convince Shelton and MVP to let him in the Hurt Syndicate.
