MEMORIES OVER A DRINK: Friends, Family, Playing the Bad Boy or Girl

For many of us out there, alcohol was not always a vice to deal with pain.  It was also a perfect communal product to share with family, friends, and celebrate life in which you didn't care about troubles or negative thoughts.  This is an invitation to subscribe and follow my blog, but also to share your best memory over a drink or cocktail.  Maybe it was a party?  Graduation?  Drinking the communion wine with a fellow youth group member in the church office?  Let the memory flood pour out!!!

ALSO SHARE YOUR FAVORITE COCKTAIL RECIPE!!!  Let's build this blog up!  Thanks in advance !!!

Here is another recipe to savor and comes to us from World Renown Mixologist Sebastian Reaburn from his famous Australian bar, 1806 in Melbourne.

TENNIS REVIVER

Ice

4 oz. chilled brewed chamomile tea

1 oz. fresh lemon juice

1/2 oz. simple syrup (see recipe below)

1/2 oz. elderflower syrup (or sweetened St. Germain)

1 chamomile flower for garnish

Half fill a highball glass with ice. Add all of the remaining ingredients except the garnish and stir well.  Add more ice and garnish with the chamomile flower.

HOT TIP OF THE DAY:  Perfecting the ice:  For most drinks, the larger the ice the better.  The smaller the ice chunks, the faster it melts and dilutes the drink.  The one exception is the crushed ice for juleps and swizzled drinks.
