The truth is, there are really only so many cocktails worth making. These can be refined, adjusted and perhaps even changed to your liking but drinks with Frangelico as an ingredient should be called dessert. An Irish Coffee taken after a good day sailing on a blustery day is grand but coffee drinks in general should be approached with caution. We're more than willing to be corrected, but we just don't get it. We know lots of pals we respect who love vodka so again we're open to suggestion but the point of it seems only to get plastered.
Gin has to be the most maligned liquid of all.
This is really unfair because gin is really the caviar of booze. If you think you don't like it, you really owe it to yourself to give it another chance and this issue's cocktail is the perfect opportunity to be overtaken by its magical allure. One of our favorite authors is the witty Irish gal Molly Keane. Her books like Time After Time and Queen Lear are amazing but our favorite has always been Good Behaviour . It's clean, fresh and citrusy without being too sweet.
