I have some Suntory whiskey in my cabinet. We use it for special occasions. I think when my son in law finishes his mountain bike race in the next few weeks, perhaps we’ll have a toast to him. Or maybe we will toast earlier (like tomorrow) in hoping that there are no accidents.
I wish so badly that I could try your recipe. Unfortunately, I can’t have any melon ingredients of any kind. I love them all, and as an adult, have grown very allergic to them. Watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew. It sometimes makes me sad, because I used to enjoy them in a major way until I became allergic to them. It’s a sad condition.
My problem is that I itch inside every sinus inside my head. Not just my mouth, ears, and nose. Beyond that, where you CAN’T scratch. It’s horrible. The only good options are to cut off your head, or to stay away from the culprits. So I do what I have to do, because I really like having my head attached to my body. LOL.
However…I am somewhat familiar with Polynesian cocktails. Mai-Tai comes to mind quickly. No melons so I might try one of those soon.
It amazes me the things we end up, ‘allergic to’ later in life; an ex-husband comes immediately to mind, LOL!
For me, it’s still The Usual Suspects: Pine Pollen and Ragweed. I am currently on a quest to destroy any Ragweed I see in the house yard. I will thank myself later. ;)
