I’m anxious to experiment with liquor now and am half tempted to take a class in bartending.
My recent trip to ING’s got me loving Limoncello, especially when they mixed it with Honey Nut Cheerios infused rum. I think that it was one of the best drinks I’ve ever had anywhere ever.
Limoncello is really sweet and ING’s made it taste smooth so I’ll be experimenting over the next month and am thinking Triple Sec and some other ingredients to smooth it out.
Look for some fun warm weather drink posts this spring.
Bon Appetit!
