Shout out to @thecocktailguy.bsky.social for the Mid-Day Margarita idea. Added a bit of salt to the rim otherwise a spitting image.

Saturday #cocktailboost! I'm doing a Cadillac Margarita. Made with Patron Silver and a shot of Grand Marnier. What makes it a Cadillac? The Grand Marnier? Ha, no, limes cost $1.49 each here in Hawaii. 😉

Enjoying a Grand Old Fashioned. Shout out to @bartenderrobb.bsky.social for sharing. I didn't have any Russell’s Reserve, so I went with another 10 year 90 proof bourbon, Widow Jane. Pleased with the results. #cheers #cocktails #Cocktailboost

Some of the notes in this tobalá are reminiscent of a dry gin, so I here’s a riff on a drink I saw from @bartenderhemry.bsky.social tonight: a mezcal Negroni Sour

1oz tobalá mezcal
.5oz Campari
.5oz sweet vermouth
3/4oz lemon juice
3/4oz simple syrup
1 egg white

#cheers 🍸

For your consideration, I present to you a Negroni, inspired by @wolfli.bsky.social. I went with 1.5 oz each of gin, Campari & vermouth. For gin I went with Empress because I love the color; the vermouth is my mainstay, Cocci Torino. The glass, a vintage stem goblet. #CocktailBoost Cheers 🍸

This is a really nice #cocktailboost for a Wednesday. I made mine with Henry McKenna Bottled-in-Bond 10 Year. I used just a bit more bourbon and my last shakes of Angostura Bitters. Hitting the proverbial spot.

This post received the most traction of my posts here so far. So, let’s try a Cocktail Boost post on Bluesky. Here’s how:
1. Make a cocktail you saw on a Bluesky account
2. Post a Photograph of it
3. Add drink’s name & the Bluesky account to post
4. Add #CocktailBoost
Let’s try this!
Made two drinks I learned about on BlueSky today.
From @reidnelson.bsky.social, the Oaxacanite, and from @bartenderhemry.bsky.social, the La fille du Père Noël. Both hit, in their own way. I’m on a Mezcal cocktail kick, plus I’m trying to learn more brandy cocktails. #cocktails Cheers 🍸

Inspired by a recent post from ‪@kentwillismd.bsky.social, my Christmas Day cocktail is a Rattlesnake. I used Gospel Straight Rye Whiskey, La Clandestine La Capricieuse Absinthe (retired) and homemade Angostura-style bitters. I downscaled the recipe slightly to equal 1 standard drink. #cocktailboost

Last #cocktail for the holiday. Both @thejoyofcocktails.bsky.social and @sdewitt70.bsky.social posted a #cocktailboost of the French Martini, so I made one.

1 1/2 oz PAU Maui Vodka
1/2 oz Chambord Liqueur
1 1/2 oz Pineapple Juice
Splash of Cognac

I served mine in a Libbey Nick & Nora glass.

Enjoying a New Years Eve Eve French Martini with @afeliz79.bsky.social.

2 ounces vodka
1/4 ounce Chambord
1 3/4 ounces pineapple juice
Shake with ice & fine strain into martini glass.

Shout out to @thejoyofcocktails.bsky.social for coming up with #Cocktailboost. What's everyone sipping tonight?
December 31, 2024 at 1:20 AM
I love this idea.

Tonight I made a Turf Club, a tasty precursor to the martini that I heard about for the first time from @thejoyofcocktails.bsky.social. The absinthe rinse comes through really nicely. This might become a go-to when I’m in a martini mood.
