Why is it that the martinis I make at home don't taste as good as the ones I buy in bars...??? Anyone have any good recipes I can try... I mean, I know that they are basically either gin or vodka... but...
Anyhoo...
The best Cosmo.. the absolutely BEST Cosmo I've ever had was in New Orleans at Arnaud's... manomanomanomanoman... of course, just about any drink I've ever had in NOLA has been good...
Arnaud's is a wonderful place to eat.... the last time W and I went down there, we had dinner here... Then we went back to the hotel where we were staying in the French Quarter... went to the bar there... met a neat couple... and then decided to go swimming... and the next thing we knew, all four of us were naked in the swimming pool... I could get used to that... Man, what a rush that was!!!!
Anyhoo... I've been playing with drink recipes this evening... and I'm afraid I've reached critical mass... where just about anything is going to taste good...
If anyone has a good martini recipe that you are willing to share, help me out...

Double up on the gin, it's a hell of a lot better!
ReplyDeleteSorry I don't mix drinks... or get naked in pools. Guess I am the one missing out!
