It's always five o'clock somewhere

From the person who does not own a microwave we already knew that.

In case I haven’t already made it abundantly clear: my standards for women are low, my standards for alcohol even lower.

Does an excess of the latter reduce the standard of the former? Or it is consistent regardless…
 
My barber had some good whiskeys in the shop

Is cognac overrated?

I collected a bunch of XO during my duty free travels plus some interesting whiskys but now I've depleted everything. (Also highly suspect my cousins started imbibing when I wasn't present).

I'm trying to restock the bar at my aunt's house now that my brother moved to the same neighbourhood and family events have shifted away from my place.
 
My picks for this Christmas since I'm doing a French theme.

Pre-dinner: Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais AOC (although how it went past $20 these days is beyond me)
Canapes: Taittinger Brut Réserve Champagne NV (it's on sale)
Dinner: Famille Perrin Les Sinards Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Willm Réserve Riesling for red and white choices (the former I discovered during the virus)
Digestif: Martell Blue Swift Cognac (normally it's armagnac but I thought I'd cash in some gift cards)
 
The women at my family dinners are snobs. They only drink if it's champagne. A great cremant or my favourite lambrusco and they would rather stay dry. Good marketing France.
 
We are going to do some tasting at a few Southern Californian wineries today. I’m curious to try their ‘white Merlot’
 
I decided to go on a health kick after last week, so bought one bottle of wine to last me seven days.

This was day six. There’s none left in the bottle, so I had to get creative. I call this El Megroni Blanco:

Mix in equal parts and serve over ice.

This Summer, Drink Suze. Also, Learn What Suze Is.

This summer, you should be drinking Suze, the French liqueur made from gentian root. Why? Because it's awesome. How? In cocktails, or just on its own

I don’t think I’ve ever tried white port, but I’ve heard it works well in martinis and G&Ts. It’s on my To Try list now.
