Amazing. The group I was with -- definitely not cocktail geeks -- were so taken by the drink that three more were ordered. Not only that, but a few of the group started asking some questions about what bitters really are. This is not only a great drink but also a perfect way to get people interested in bitters who would otherwise not have any clue. Best new drink I've encountered in the past two years, without a doubt. Thank you so much for bringing it to my attention.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07657827368362171159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-74291557372647428152009-03-22T18:56:00.000-04:002009-03-22T18:56:00.000-04:00I had the Trinidad Sour yesterday.

And while sometimes we're specific about what we want, sometimes we ask what they've been making lately that they're excited about(*). And sometimes when we're specific, it triggers an idea of what they've been making that week. And sometimes it's improv'd and perhaps made for future drinkers.<BR/><BR/>(*) the cool thing about doing this is how much it can broaden your drink sensibilities and overcome perceived dislikes.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-3842184401105294872009-03-16T20:40:00.000-04:002009-03-16T20:40:00.000-04:00As Leadlike said, we're very often drinking the sa...As Leadlike said, we're very often drinking the same concoctions on Sundays -- but I tend to just take pictures and kick myself, later on, for not writing down how many ounces this and dashes of that. So we're awfully appreciative of your meticulous notes.

We have only opened Drink once and that was on a Sunday after we went to the ICA a few blocks away. Hopefully one day our shifts will overlap. And hopefully the photo in my profile is helpful to I.D. me.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-79003885427718580002009-03-13T10:33:00.000-04:002009-03-13T10:33:00.000-04:00love that drink!

Misty recently made me a whole flight of "inverted" bitters cocktails one Sunday after I described a bizarre date experience from the night before. I remember the Trinidad sour, but I can't remember the others, suffice to say they were all surprisingly delicious.<BR/><BR/>P.S. I am one of the "garnish challenge" patrons, and we are all fans of your blog (I am alaways surprised how our respective drink lists tend to overlap week to week). We are typically at Drink around opening on Sunday if you ever want to exchange notes!leadlikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14221140650832715468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-77039201514604655512009-03-13T09:49:00.000-04:002009-03-13T09:49:00.000-04:00I really like the business card idea.
