Gin or Booze of the Week update

Posted by ArmedGeek on Tuesday, November 17, 2009 in BOTW

I finally made it down to the liquor store to pick up a couple more bottles of gin.

I’ve killed the last of the New Amsterdam and have started on the Beefeater. Still doing gin & tonics. I can’t yet identify exactly what is different between the New Amsterdam and the Beefeater but it is certainly different. I’m going to try to get to making a martini with the Beefeater before I call it a day. If I succeed I’ll post the results in and update.

Oh, and this obviously starts another round of ‘find the stuff in the background’.

Update: The New Amsterdam is kinda “citrus-y” where the Beefeater leans more towards what I’ve heard people call “pine needle-y”

    Damn that was fast.

  3. Where the hell is the Tangueray????

    A recipie for you:

    1 L Tangueray
    1.5L tonic water (the diet stuff is OK if you are watching your girlish figure, as I am)
    Juice of 5 limes
    5 limes cut into quarters
    1- 5# bag of ice

    Add all that shit into a big cooler with a spigot (like the Coleman ones we used to have at t-ball games).

    Get a big glass, take the cooler and glass with you to the boat launch. Launch the boat, and drift…..

    The Tangueray is on the list for the next liquor store run along with bombay saphire.

    First off, it’s T-A-N-Q-U-E-R-A-Y….with a “Q”!!!

    Second, if you enjoy gin with lime, try the Rangpur. It’s a lot smoother than the original.

    See, that’s what I get for copy/pasting instead of looking it up.

  7. LC Aggie Sith says:

    You’re a drunk, and had to copy/paste the name of a popular brand of gin??

    My heart weeps…. ;)

    Hey, if Firefox didn’t constantly correct my spelling, I’d look like a fucking illiterate around here.

    Glad to see you picked up on the tip about the Hendrick’s. I’m enjoying one as I type this.

    Looking forward to the review.

    Now, aren’t we due for a hooker?
