What should I call this one? It uses the classic 5:1 martini ratio of Roku Gin to Bigallet China-China Amaro, garnished with orange zest. Tastes great, and look at that color! (📸2) Any ideas for a name? Cheers! Enjoying these final pre-Fall evenings out back as the light still lingers. This 2016 bottle of Henry McKenna is my last, and luckily it’s a good one. Like summer, it’s very near its end, so, savoring it while I still can. Cheers! This ol’ Booker’s from late 2016 has finally met its end. It was a scorcher. Interestingly, over ice it wasn’t so great. But I thoroughly enjoyed it with a splash of water, neat, and in cocktails. (Use it to make a Staggering Gentleman cocktail if you’ve not before—it’ll live up to its name!) Cheers!
