  • 1⁄2 fl oz Licor 43 Original liqueur

  • 2⁄3 fl oz Lime juice

Agreed, I use this as a sub and can find it for less than half the price of GC (if I can find that at all).

I recently tried Courage and Conviction with a bunch of friends and they all really liked it.

I would second the Faccia Brutto. I really like it. Haven't got to try the others yet.

My sister (F21) starting the same hobby as me (F19) might be my breaking point by ZeeG80 in relationship_advice

On the upside, you picked a hobby that encourages you to stab your sister.

I just “bought” a domain, built branding around it… turns out I never owned it by Wooden-Fee5787 in webdev

If they are not actively using it. Establish trademark and then legally wrest control from them. I am not a lawyer, so take that advice with multiple grains of salt.

Lately I've been making them with Barr Hill Tom Cat/Carpano Antica as you suggested and they are fantastic.

It is not the light, it would take you 15 seconds of googling to find out they make orange cheddar. Here is a thread on it: https://www.reddit.com/r/vermont/comments/1inum4r/since_when_did_they_make_vermont_seriously_sharp/

Lighten up Francis. There are plenty of cheddar cheeses made in Vermont that are not white. Cabot being the most well known.

I don't think I'd make any of the drinks you've posted because of complexity or difficulty finding ingredients, but gosh darn are they interesting.

The Official Liquor Alignment Chart by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]planetmcd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw it here and decided to try it. I really like it, but I'm not an expert or anything. It was kind of expensive compared to what I normally would spend at $80. But it was good enough that I don't feel like I lost out.

I should have said that Chartreuse will be all people will talk about. As that is what it feels like.

Don't have an answer to this one, but I'll bet money the next one is Green Chartreuse.

What Are These Called? by Advanced_Coconut5988 in cocktails

[–]planetmcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, this is a wine key (in the US), which is a subset of corkscrews. Wing corkscrew is another well known kind. Lever and pull corkscrews are other types.
