Givens: Last night was Friday
Last night was Date Nite
Statement: Food ≤ Cocktails x Fun = Post ÷ Hangover
∴ Short Post.
Happy hour: Sidecar. Close relative of Maiden's Prayer & Between the Sheets.
Tasty aperitif.
Partner: "I think I can drink this one. It's just the right balance of sweet and sour and acidity. I don't think D. & S. would drink it. But, oh well...."
Me: "They'll drink what I make 'em!"
Me: "They'll drink what I make 'em!"
A rave for an old classic.
Side Car
2 oz. cognac
3/4 oz. Cointreau
3/4 oz. lemon juice
1/4 oz. simple syrup
Shake with ice. Serve in a chilled coupe half rimmed with sugar. No garnish.
that does sound so sweet .... and likely a wicked hangover! (she says in her best Bostonian accent)
