cucumber muddled with a bit of serrano, shaken with some simple syrup and plenty of vodka. dig right in. made for the missus, but sorta wish i had one too.
Humulus Extra Pale Ale. damn fine.
my glass and my growler of the bruery’s humulus xpa. they are the nearest high quality brewery to my home and, sadly, that’s the only style they do that i really like.
Bad beer! Bad!
i get emails..
“We were out having cocktails and thought of you. Look at the first one listed. g”
older viscosity from port is reminiscent of port - wine that is. nothing like making that last drink of the night a twelve percenter.
ugh, been drinking ten fiddy quite often of late. it makes el serracho a bit tipsy.

so you wanna make yer own cilantro-serrano martini? you’ll need a handful of life giving cilantro, a serrano chili or three (use jalapenos if you insist on being a loser), some limes, some ice to crush, and vodka (but you already have that).
muddle the hell out of the limes, serranos, and cilantro. add vodka (i used about 4 shots for two martinis), and fill it up with crushed ice. at this point you can add a little agave nectar or simple syrup (just a bit!!) to tidy things up a bit. i did for these and it creates a nice balance.
shake it. sit it; trust me on this one. let the shaker sit for at least 5 minutes.
strain it. drink it.
i used three serranos this time and it was a spicy mother effer. it brings a nice burn.
look, this is what i do instead of taking care of kids, ok? STOP JUDGING ME!!!
