Boozy updates
Oct. 3rd, 2008 08:17 pmAfter receiving my first full sized paycheck, I decided to celebrate and purchase a little alcohol. To be precise, I bought two items for myself and some wine/Guinness for the folks. Bottle 1 was "Tequila Rose", a strawberry cream liqueur with tequila in it for a bit of zing which would be excellent on ice cream.
I also finally picked up a bottle of the strangest stuff; Zen Green Tea Liqueur. I had been considering the stuff though I was annoyed that I couldn't find a small bottle and the 35$ price tag was a tad steep for a risk like that. It was 30% off and there was one bottle left so I picked that up. Turns out it is actually surprisingly sweet rather then a bitter like I had predicted; tastes like melon liqueur plus a green tea flavour which works well in a twisted kind of way.
After that sampling, I decided to produce one last shot to sip upon. 1/2 oz of Chambord raspberry and 1/2 oz of Creme de Cacao. Daaamn. This is a keeper, incredibly easy and decadent at the same time. Chocolate raspberry cheesecake in a shot.
