Lookit all the pretty french fries...
Last night at the neighborhood bar, asked one of the bartenders to make me a very particular drink. He responded with something along the lines of, "I'm swamped tonight, but I'm here from 9 onward tomorrow." So I came back tonight and asked him to fix it for me. He did, begrudgingly, and even gifted it to me (yay free alchi!), and officially named tonight "High-Maintenance Cocktail Thursday." Despite having just eaten dinner, that one drink did me in. Oh -- also played a round of pool with some architects, and cleaned up the table much more efficiently than if I had been sober. So here is the secret to my billiards success:
Singapore Sling
1.5 oz. Tanqueray (he overpoured - whee!)
1 oz. brandy
1 oz. pineapple juice
1 tsp. grenadine
club soda
Shake main ingredients inside daiquiri glass over ice, add club soda, shake again. Rim glass with lemon wedge, then garnish with lemon and maraschino cherry.
The people with whom I played pool tonight really liked my shirt. Hats off (and, now shirts) to sgtpoliteness for designing the Monopoly DartCon shirts! Ran to McDonald's and used the last of my discretionary budget to acquire french fries and a double cheeseburger. Excellentness.
