Got a 30 pack for 9.99. How do you say no to that? Haven’t had it for a long time, either.

I just made a batch of homemade Rose's Lime Cordial using this recipe: How to Make Your Own Lime Cordial (Rose's Lime Juice) - Jeffrey Morgenthaler

...and I'm trying it out now. I poured 1/2 ounce over ice, then added 2 ounces of Seagram's gin, and poured it back and forth to another glass a couple of times to mix it. The quantities for the lime and the citric acid in the recipe are kinda weird; I just used 1 Tbsp of citric acid and the juice and zest of 2 small organic Persian limes. It's a bit too tart but still good. (I'm glad I didn't use 2 Tbsp of acid) Perhaps by small limes he meant Key limes and these are a little larger than that. If I make another batch to top off the empty Rose's bottle I put it in, I'll make it the same way but add more sugar and water; maybe 300 grams of each.

I'm going to try the same thing with blood oranges.

HB Irish Stout ☘️. This is the experimental 3 step batch I started 2 months ago. It isn’t the Guinness clone I was hoping for, but it’s not too bad. I’ve definitely never brewed one that tastes like this. I’m glad I tried it, but unless it starts to grow on me, I doubt I’ll do it again.
