2 classic yardwork drinks.

Post by Badfellow »

Decisions, decisions...

#1: Strong and Classic G & T

3 parts Miller's Reformed London Dry Gin, Westbourne Strength (45.2%)

1 part Tonic Water

Pour gin over ice, add tonic and stir. Garnish with a wedge of ripe lime*.

* Most people think of limes as being green in color. A properly
ripened lime however should be almost completely yellowed of
skin. Ripe limes possess superior flavor and increased sweetness.


#2: Strong Gin & Lemonade

3 parts Bombay Regular Gin

1 part Fresh Lemonade

Pour gin over ice, add lemonade and stir.



Either, or both, make good, quenching fuel for yardwork on a balmy spring day. Make it abundantly clear to your neighbor that, while he may have the better looking lawn, you'd put his ass under the table in a drinking contest. Cheers!

You also forgot the other 2 classics: "Miller™" and "High Life™" (at least when there is lawn mowing involved.)

Here's to the yard!

High Life can't be beat after mowing the lawn. In fact, those are the first two things I paln to do when I get home this evening.
For a particularliy long day of yard work, I also enjoy a few Pimm's Cup cocktails. Light, refreshing, and deliscious too!
take care
