I had a fresh supply of Bandol rose delivered yesterday ready for weekend drinking... Also picked a bottle of Tanqueray Rangpur as it was on special offer in the supermarket the other day.
Bought 750 ml of Barton light Rum for the weekend
It cost only 6 usd.

Arnaud Pere et Fils Gigondas 2011 tonight!
Last night I opened a bottle of Bowmore 12. I tried it years ago when I discovered Islay malts. It was better than I remembered.
Old Fashion made with Evan Williams Black Label
Getting super redundant here, but after a rainless 90 degree day in SWFL, this hits the spot. It’s cold, salty, sweet, smoky, and tart, with carbonation. Herradura Blanco tequila, once again.
Golden margarita (with Gran Marnier)
oops, now it’s empty!
I will be there soon! Bandol rosé just tends to be so good...
A couple of negroni’s for me tonight with pizza at home.
You'll need to hurry(!) It's fast becoming my no1 rosé.
At the moment (17:50 UTC +2) green tea Sencha lemon grass, later in the evening I'll switch to Yerba Mate
Negroni
So today is National Bourbon Day. And the Kentucky Derby was nixed earlier this 2020. So I thought I might enjoy a Mint Julep at brunch...
But the Julep was made with gin. [?] So I ordered a Woodford neat. Cheers!

I'll give them that "julep" can be darn near any drink that's sweetened and served over ice, but "mint julep" is so closely associated with bourbon or eye whiskey that it's downright perverted to have a gin variant without also offering the classic.
A gin mint julep actually sounds pretty good, but dadgum.
The shrimp and grits more than made up for it!
I could taste the botanicals in the drink, so I asked the waitress which bourbon the bartender used. She came back very apologetically and removed the Julep from the bill. Usually the server asks which bourbon I prefer when ordering. I should have offered before she walked away. I did mention National Bourbon Day, though!
First world problem, especially in these times...
