What else could you call a mashup of a Revolver and a Longshoreman on a crime fiction themed cocktail menu?
The Wire — Bourbon, Mr. Black coffee liqueur, Averna, and orange bitters. Didn’t have fresh orange to torch the rind and that would be only change to it for #dogsearmenu

My friend made a movie that was in a film festival in NY. I was so excited I made a cocktail to celebrate!
Rabbit Rabbit — Paranubes rum, Lychee SoHo, Campari, fresh lemon juice, splash of preserved lemon brine and a foaming agent. Not based on a book but still going on the #dogsearmenu !

Got a new low score on my A1C and good marks on all my panels and scores from a recent doctors visit. Wish the world wasn’t such a shit show so I could feel better about this but taking the small victories as they come.

It has been a minute since I baked anything but wanted to try a Levain style version of the Molten Pinnacles with triple chocolate, candied orange slices and gochujang.
Super decadent with a gooey cake-like texture. Going to make these happen more often.
