Nice Saratoga Al. I just made one a little smaller than yours (1:1:3/4) also taking Shelly's suggestion to go lighter on the vermouth.

I agree 100%, delicious. I knew it sounded great as it is a Vieux Carre without the Benedictine and Peychaud's bitters, which is one of my favorites.

Beauty, Jim! It's funny you should say that about the Vieux Carre, because the Heaven's Dog bartender said the same thing. I think of it as a 2:1 Manhattan with half brandy or cognac, which is a little easier to order at most bars.

I am now finishing off the High Water IPA, which was very tasty with pizza for dinner.

Thumbs up for the S&C Grog and Saratogas! Both great drinks.

Having a (mini) Vesper myself

Yep a 2:1 Manhattan will work also. These cocktails remind me of living in the south with all the intertwined genealogies :)

And mini-vesper FTW.

Backwoods Bastard -- fucking yum. Far better than Dirty Bastard.

Bastard! Now I'm really tempted to drink mine after work today >:D

Ouch. Be better off with water.

Indeed. Loading up on water this morning as we speak.
