To add to other things that you try for the Old Fashioned: try maple syrup for the sweetener. Try a chocolate bitters if you can get it.

Yeah, Paloma’s are really nice, and agree on the added mezcal.

Glad you liked it!

Once you’re ready to experiment with it, you can try adding a piece of cucumber in the shaker. Adds some freshness to it which is nice on a warm day.

Can also try it with pieces of jalapeño in the shaker, without seeds. Ands a similar vegetal flavor but obviously a little spicy too.

I’ve probably only done this without the mezcal, but that could work too.

Edit:

If your into mezcal and if you like an Old Fashioned you can swap out the bourbon for mezcal. Not my favorite but can be fun to try.

My standard cocktail at home is a Tommy’s Margarita, sometimes with some added mezcal. Great if you like sours, like whiskey sour.

My proportions: (1,2,4) 1.5cl agave syrup 3cl fresh lime juice 6cl tequila (I prefer tequila reposado)

Shake well with ice. Serve with or without ice.

Don’t buy shitty tequila but it doesn’t have to be fancy. Should always be 100% agave, from Mexico, and never wear a hat.

And like I said, sometimes I do half and half with tequila and mezcal, so 3cl each. Mezcal is basically tequila, but the agave has been smoked under ground, which adds some nice smoky bites.

Thanks!

What is DE?

Appreciated!

I didn’t find the information on the linked website though. I’m sure it’s there, and I want to read about it. Can someone direct me to the specific page or some other source?

It might be in there somewhere but I could not find it. I don’t necessarily doubt it, but would be nice with a less biased source than the lawyer of Luigi. Any news article that can sum up the legal problem of the evidence.

Any source on this claim?

Not necessarily. It does prove that it legally should be optional.

The fact that there was a high profile case might indicate that it’s not as trivially optional as you make it seem.

My guess is they want clean and aligned data to train AI. They’ll save time and money by getting people in line early, or banning those that don’t follow their rules.

Doesn’t matter, your life will be ruined either way by everyone around you that wants a piece of the pie.

Life pro tip: don’t win the jack pot. And if you do, keep it as much a secret as possible.

Why would I take an article serious when the author is calling them self Tyler Durden.

Not sure if your sarcastic but why not give it all to consumers and let the them boost the economy which in turn create jobs?

Yeah, if the tariffs went straight and equally to all citizens it might not be such a bad idea.

Whining about condoms is such a shitty thing to do. There are only benefits to distributing them.

I think that’s the point of drawing a line in the sand. Step over it and this will happen. It’s risky and timing would be of the essence.

Or doing their job.
