My boyfriend dubbed this drink The Citrus Queen: 2oz Roku gin 3/4 oz Italicus 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice 1/2 oz Cointreau 1/2 oz orange blossom honey 3 dashes lavender bitters 3 large mint leaves Lemon zest garnish Add honey and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker, stir until honey dissolves. Add mint leaves and muddle, then add gin, Italicus, Cointreau, lavender bitters and ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Finish off with expressed lemon zest. OR if you want a lighter drink, add to a Collins glass and top with club soda. I tried it both ways and loved it. It really just depends on what you’re craving in the moment.

Absinthe: Unraveling the Mystique of the Green Fairy

Absinthe, often shrouded in mystery and intrigue, has captivated the imagination of artists, writers, and enthusiasts for centuries. From its origins in Switzerland to its controversial reputation in the 19th century, exploring the history and allure of absinthe unveils a fascinating tale of art, culture, and craftsmanship.

The Origins of Absinthe: Absinthe traces its roots back to the late 18th century in Switzerland, where it was first concocted as a medicinal elixir by a French doctor named Pierre Ordinaire.

Derived from botanicals such as wormwood, anise, and fennel, absinthe quickly gained popularity for its purported therapeutic properties and unique flavor profile.

The Rise of the Green Fairy

In the 19th century, Absinthe experienced a surge in popularity, particularly among artists and writers in France and throughout Europe.

Dubbed the "Green Fairy" for its emerald hue and alleged hallucinogenic effects, absinthe became synonymous with bohemian culture and creative inspiration.

The Absinthe Controversy

Despite its widespread appeal, absinthe soon became embroiled in controversy due to concerns over its supposed psychoactive properties and association with societal ills.

In the early 20th century, absinthe was banned in several countries, including France, Switzerland, and the United States, leading to its prohibition and underground status for decades.

Absinthe Renaissance

In recent years, absinthe has experienced a resurgence in popularity as artisanal distillers revive traditional production methods and rekindle interest in this storied spirit.

With its complex flavors, ritualistic preparation, and rich cultural heritage, absinthe continues to enchant aficionados and newcomers alike, reclaiming its place as a beloved libation in the world of spirits.

About Fernet 🖤

In the vast universe of spirits, where tastes range from sweet to smoky, one category stands out for its unique allure: Fernet. Originating from the rich culinary traditions of Italy, Fernet is a testament to the artistry of herbal concoctions and the acquired taste for bitterness.

At first encounter, Fernet may appear intimidating to the uninitiated palate. Its robust aroma hints at a symphony of botanicals, from chamomile to cardamom, entwined with the unmistakable bitterness that characterizes this spirit. Yet, beneath its formidable exterior lies a world of complexity waiting to be explored.

Traditionally enjoyed as a digestif, Fernet's bitter profile serves as a soothing elixir to settle the stomach after a hearty meal. Its herbal composition is believed to aid in digestion, making it a staple in post-dinner rituals across Italy and beyond. However, Fernet's versatility extends far beyond its medicinal roots.

In recent years, mixologists and cocktail enthusiasts have embraced Fernet as a prized ingredient, harnessing its bold flavors to elevate classic concoctions and craft innovative libations. Whether it's a Fernet-laced Negroni or a daring Fernet and cola, the spirit lends a distinctive edge to any cocktail it graces.

One cannot truly appreciate Fernet without delving into its rich cultural significance. In Italy, it holds a revered status among discerning drinkers, while in Argentina, it has become a national obsession, consumed with fervor in bars and bodegas alike. Its presence in the global spirits landscape speaks volumes about its enduring appeal.

Beyond its consumption, Fernet embodies a sense of tradition and craftsmanship passed down through generations of distillers. Each bottle encapsulates a labor of love, a meticulous blend of herbs and spices carefully curated to achieve the perfect balance of bitterness and complexity.

In a world filled with saccharine cocktails and mass-produced spirits, Fernet stands as a beacon of authenticity and sophistication. Its bitter elegance invites us to savor the complexities of flavor, to embrace the unfamiliar, and to embark on a journey of discovery with every sip.

So, the next time you find yourself pondering your drink of choice, dare to venture into the world of Fernet. Let its bitter embrace envelop your senses, and may you discover a newfound appreciation for this enigmatic spirit that transcends borders and time.

Raise your glass to Fernet—a testament to the beauty of bitterness and the enduring allure of the Italian art of distillation. Saluti!

love it when people are so slippery slope pilled that under every discourse about censorship someone will inevitably go "ok but what if someone made birth of a nation 2 and reestablished the kkk" when it could not be more obvious that the original poster's statement was just like. About a teenager's underage bakudeku fic or something

#i guess its normal to immediately jump to the extremes but i cant be the only one finding something bizarre about how many people will be #like ' ok but what if i made [cocktail of the worst things imaginable to ever conceive]. right thats why thought crime needs to exist #' like no offense but do you guys hear yourselves.. YOURE the ones coming up with those things no one else said that before you #if you think people should be punished because they thought of something horrible that YOU were thinking about i think by your metric #perhaps you may need to get some help #but to be real like. everythings in nuance but i think the scariest thing these days is how many people think ao3 actually has mainstream #relevance to culture. if one person writes a wincest fic its not going to be projected to 12 million children immediately please be for real #the influence will be very small and extremely combatible realistically #whatevr #fandom discourse #fandom wank

i miss milwaukee a lot but it’s uhh. how do i put this. not a good place to live long-term if you’re not planning on becoming an alcoholic or being surrounded by them

#and i love beer! i love a fun cocktail! but due to wanting to fit in i was heavily susceptible to The Drinking Culture which… #i learned i am not built for. #i miss the food more than anything. i miss smelling good food outside and seeing people walking around living their lives.

Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend 2024, day one! I arrived Wednesday night. Somehow I have a farmer's tan. How did I acquire that? I've already drunk my first Mai Tai of the trip at the reliably wonderful Golden Tiki (with my friend Kevin). The cocktails, kitsch decor and exotica soundtrack at Golden Tiki are sublime.
