A Vague New Interest

I've been listening to the podcast Dinner Party Download lately, and it sort of has me wanting to try making cocktails.

Yeah. I need another project like I need a hole in the head. On the other hand, it's something else I could do with the cordials I've been making.

Added: Semi-relatedly, I think I need to track down some of the 151-proof vodka made by Boyd and Blair. They've gotten all sorts of praise, and since it's a potato vodka I could make a cordial that is safe for my Gluten Free friends.

As an example of what I was talking about in this post:

This cocktail sounds kind of interesting:

The “Edsel,” as gassed up by Robert M. Nelson, entertainer and bartender at Cafe D’Mongo’s Speakeasy in Detroit, MI:

Combine in a highball glass:

■1.5 oz gin (alter to taste)
■1 oz. cream… or soy milk
■Top with Vernor’s Ginger Ale (the nation’s oldest soft drink, invented in Detroit in 1866)
