Day 217, Cocktail 215
Ugh, these guys are gonna’ be the death of me! I went to Ivee’s, as usual, for the Browns game on Sunday. What made it different, and a lot more fun, was that Cookie was with me, there to cheer his Steelers on. We were both feeling pretty good when our teams jumped out to big leads then nearly had heart attacks as the Browns won when the Panthers missed a field goal as time expired and the Steelers won in OT as a Bills reciever dropped a game winning TD pass. Whew!
To celebrate the twin victories Cookie ordered up a variant of the classic vodka cranberry that I’d never had. He had a splash of sour mix added to the drink – and I liked it. The sour cut the sweetness of the cranberry just a bit and made it a very enjoyable cocktail. Thanks Cookie!
Cheers!

Considered working something up with vodka and cranberry as an Ohio State drink. Something adding Cinnamon Schnapps and a touch of Tabasco to cut the sweetness. I’ll have to open the lab to mix and match the right combo.
Sounds interesting Dave – let me know what you come up with!
