[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 297338, member: 152"] I've been silent for a while, but I have nothing really newsworthy in the pinball field to offer. So instead, one of my favorite summer drink recipes, for those of legal age: [B]Damn the Weather[/B] 1-1/3 parts good gin (I use Bombay Sapphire, but your preference of quality gin will do just fine) 1 part sweet vermouth 1 part Campari 2/3 part Grand Marnier (if no Grand Marnier is at hand: Cointreau. If you're really in barbaric lands, 1/2 part triple sec as a last resort.) Vigorously stir together first three ingredients with ice until well-chilled. Strain into a chilled large martini glass and float Grand Marnier on top. Garnish with orange and/or lemon. [I]Note for male drinkers:[/I] This drink looks a lot like a Cosmopolitan when in a martini glass. If you want to avoid having to explain what you're drinking to everyone nearby, serve on the rocks instead, which will cause people to think it's a Manhattan with an excess of vermouth. [I]Note for all drinkers:[/I] This concoction, being all alcohol, is very strong. One is plenty, maybe two if you don't have to drive. [I]About the name:[/I] It comes from a similar-but-not-quite-identical drink that was that night's special at the place I ate dinner when I picked up my Twilight Zone. [/QUOTE]
