I am having another split base version of one of my standards:

1 oz cognac

1 oz bourbon

1 oz Heirloom Pineapple Amaro

1 oz Giffard Abricot

1.5 oz fresh lemon juice

Shake shake shake and strain over ice.

    I don’t know how alcohol affects diabetes. But fermentation and distillation kinda eat up the sugar in drinks. The Texas drink that is a shot of tequila and squeeze of lime in a Topo Chico is better than it sounds, and very low in sugar.

    And yeah, it’s a funny hobby because you really do have to move slowly, I don’t drink every day and usually only one on days I do but like it to be delicious and like to vicariously indulge by seeing what other people are enjoying.

      That sounds good, lime juice is pretty low in sugar. Whiskey or bourbon and diet coke is my go-to mixed drink.
