Toast Tuesday

I enjoy a well crafted cocktail.  Upon moving to Memphis, I was having trouble finding a good drink that wasn’t overly sweet.  So, when I got this book as a gift, I thought what better way to expand my already overflowing bar and try something new.

A Year of Drinking Adventurously.  52 way to get out of your comfort zone
By Jeff Cioletti

I spent a fruitful and expensive year working my way around the world.  I discovered very quickly into this endeavor I could broke very easily if I were to buy full size bottles of everything I wanted to try.  I will admit, it was difficult to not stock the bar with everything I tried.  This did expand my pallet and helped me learn so much. 

If you decide to work your way through, please ping back so I can follow your journey.

 Cheers! Slainte! Prost!
