is the name of the book I got for Christmas from my brother and sister-in-law. It coincided, happily, with Mom donating the family soda siphon, CO2 cartidges, and liquor cabinet cast-offs--sake set, sloe gin, pernod, bitters. So I've been cocktail-experimenting.
Yesterday's Burnt Orange (brandy, bitters, OJ) was interrupted when Caper the rat tried to sip from the martini glass and knocked it over. Now I am down to one martini glass, in which I had a New Orleans Martini (pernod, dry vermouth, gin) which I don't recommend.
Tonight's Delft Donkey is more my speed: 2 parts gin to one part lemon juice, shaken over ice cubes till they frost, then poured into a highball glass which is then filled to the top with ginger beer. Num.
