What's in your glass?

[Rebelda]

Elderflower cordial and fizzy water.

 

[Espresso]

Gin, ginger beer, a slice of lime, loads of ice and a sneaky splosh of Limoncello in a pint glass.
Diet's off tonight.

The remaining third of a bottle of Old Rosie.

Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey. Bit too nice this. Probably not a bad thing that I can't afford it all the time.

I can't drink Old Rosie without falling over

I have this problem too. I find its best to drink through it.

It's fine, I'm in an armchair, with the laptop's table in front of me - there's nowhere to fall.

 

[blairsh]

Rum and ginger beer

 

[farmerbarleymow]

I've got a pot of assam on the go, ready to listen to the election results.

 

[blairsh]

A drink combining two things i rather like. It's neither one or the other and a bit too sweet, but on the other hand its not bad and quite strong so

 

[Greebo]

Dirty little secret

 

[dilute micro]

[butcher]

Aeropress Columbian, brown sugar, cheap brandy, double cream...............sluuuuuuuuuuuurp!

 

[Greebo]

Erdinger alcoholfrei (0.5%abv), and very good it is too.

A nice fruity French red I picked up in Aldi. Very pleasing smell and taste. Let's see how many weeks it takes me to drink this bottle.

Which one ?

I'm back on the blended Pinot Noir.
I tried a bottle of their red Anjou, but couldn't quite fathom it.
The description mentions a"a hint of graphite"..

Nice photo for you gentlegreen. I know the French get knocked for their wine but I rather like it.

Oh and graphite? Licking a pencil??

<snip>Oh and graphite? Licking a pencil??

gentlegreen having been a terrible chewer of pencils at one time (no jokes from the cheap seats, thank you) I tend to think of graphite as tasting slightly less bitter but just as dark as coal smells IYSWIM.

I was drinking the Malbec before the Pinot Noir - still have a dozen bottles ...
I would love a good Fleurie...

I'll keep my eye open. Anything food or drink related is my forte.

you could just have got a bottle of spirits instead, easier to get the alcohol out

getting it out is half the fun and it's usually mostly drunken before it gets to the sorbet stage

 

[sojourner]

Weeks, Mogden ?!! Good god woman! It's minutes with me

Speaking of which, 40 minutes to medication time! At which point I will be shoving down an Andrew Pearce chardonnay - and I had to buy two bottles of wine cos I'll be using 100ml of the chardders for the risotto. Ahem.

G & T on the train. It's been a long day so I deserve it.
