Endless summer drinking...


Drinkies!
Originally uploaded by Blend10.
If I wrote about all the tasty drinks I had this summer, it would indeed be a lengthy post, but the tastiest drinks of all were definitely at Beach Party 2005. The Bloody Marys were the best I have had, and this year we were introduced to a fabulous new drink by Tom. The man gots skills! Recipe to follow.

Developed by Thomas Paul @ The Lock Lounge, Boise, ID
in conjuncture with The Frim Fram Four, Boise's finest
swing jazz combo featuring Dr. Andrew Cortense, piano.

I miss Tom's drink making skills. I think about his Bloody Marys all the time. That was by far the greatest drinking experience I've had this summer.

Re: the Professor
Bitters and soda, eh? Sounds like an interestion variation on the original (bourbon on rocks, splash of water, squeeze of lemon). I'll have to ask Jeremy to make one for me tonight at Pengilly's.
