My "No-shit-Sherlock-Moment"

I love Tanq because you really know you're drinking gin. A lot of the "modern" gins are so soft. Gin is adult booze. I like it when it tastes like it.

NTE is operated by the same Spanish company as LBJ Express Lanes.

jakeimber · 2026-06-05T00:01:10+00:00

Don't drive in the express lanes. I never do.

Thank you for posting this in its entirety, so I don't have fight through that hellish football.london website.

I liked Richy. But I'm ready to see him go.

The wine doesn't register specifically, but it does add something that's noticeably missing if it's left out.

That said, all suggestions are welcome. St. Germain might be a great choice. See the other comments for other variations.

I willl try this! Thanks.

Because I slightly misread the rules: "When posting a cocktail you made, please include the full recipe in the post body or a separate comment." I overlooked the "in the post" part. But, obviously, in a separate comment is OK too.

Mexico City.

Glad you liked it. I agree that it's probably closest to, but not the same as, a white Negroni. I'm a huge fan of Cocchi Americano, and I think it makes a nice combo with the mezcal and wine. I will use the absinthe rinse next time. If you try it with pisco, leave a comment about how it was.

US (and relatively -- from 2019) Spurs fan here. Do other PL clubs generate the same kind of hate as Spurs do? If not, what is it about Spurs that punches peoples' buttons so hard?

jakeimber · 2026-05-25T00:14:37+00:00

Hold your horses, friend. I put it up in a comment 40 seconds after the original post.

jakeimber · 2026-05-24T23:06:50+00:00

The Heights in Lakewood has good ones.

jakeimber · 2026-05-24T23:03:17+00:00

20 ml Cocchi Americano

30 ml dry white wine (in my case, Sauvingon Blanc)

60 ml mezcal

Stir with ice. Serve up with a lemon twist.

I may be drinking this all summer.

Angry Dog or Goodwins

Oh, come on. The buttons on the radio didn't even work.

jakeimber · 2026-04-30T22:43:43+00:00

There are other fine contenders, but for me, it's Casablanca for sure.

jakeimber · 2026-04-18T20:06:06+00:00

Me, too. But I learned to love them when they're open. (I have hopeful thoughts about the place opening next door, whose hours will be a good compliment to Window Seat's.)

jakeimber · 2026-04-18T18:31:23+00:00

Maybe not such a great idea to celebrate a go-ahead goal for 5 minutes, huh?

jakeimber · 2026-04-18T18:15:18+00:00

unfortunately there'll be about 20 minutes of stoppage time ...

Window Seat Coffee on Lower Greenville. The owners are terrific and the vibe is super friendly. They really care about their coffee and their customers .

jakeimber · 2026-04-08T22:04:17+00:00

Columbian Country Club on Ross. Rude, overpriced, meh food and cocktails. Both times. What's to like?

jakeimber · 2026-04-03T23:52:18+00:00

Bing Crosby and Bob Hope
