cocktail testing.

Sorry for the delay in my posting. I've been basking in the glow of fatherhood and readjusting to life in a cooler climate - battling snow storms, trying to stay fit and trying to keep Proof busy and energized in what could be a slower season for some. We've had a fortunate January and are looking forward to a great February, despite some of the 'doom + gloom' you may have been privy to in the media.

Today we had another cocktail tasting at the restaurant for some cocktails we are putting together for a consulting job in Virginia. Most of the cocktails were classics, but several were some new joints pieced together for the tasting. Of course we had to give some love to the coupe glasses, as the client is a classic bar with an old school vibe.

Some maraschino liquer, Aperol, Yellow Chartreuse, eggs, elderflower - just a couple of the tools of destruction.

A bevy of different cocktails. Who says work isn't fun?
