Cocktails and Recipes
When I began to publish reviews here on my website, it occurred to me that it would be fun to suggest a cocktail or a recipe with some of my reviews. At first I would pick a well-known cocktail that seemed to fit the particular spirit I was reviewing. Soon however, I decided that it would be more original (and more fun) to create my own recipes. In the beginning, these recipes were basically being buried in my reviews; however, I decided that some people might want to be able to access these recipes in an easier manner than trying to remember which review they were associated with. So I have built this section of my blog with the intention of bringing my best recipes into one place.
