Upcoming TDN – Repeal Day!

Repeal Day is on the horizon, so the theme this week is classic cocktails. No Manhattans or Aviations though, we’ll be making up new creations using classic ingredients. So if you’re out of gin and vermouth, hop to it. Might I also suggest: maraschino liqueur, lemons, limes, rye whiskey, old tom gin, brandy, scotch, eggs, absinthe, Jamaican rum… not to be specific or anything.

SDN Apple

Thanksgiving dripped with juicy excitement and left us immovable, slothful heaps, so we pushed last week’s TDN to Saturday, making for the first every Saturday Drink Night. Though we’re returning to our regularly scheduled programming this week, we all had a blast over the weekend. Apfelkorn was the prized ingredient of the night, though not the only apple spirit to get some use.

Check out the full list of cocktails created by our lusty crew, or take a gander at the following highlights:
