sloe gin fizz.


My good friend Dean Roethemeier lives in England and looks like a bird when he runs. He is a Marketing Executive with a very well known horse farm. That basically means he gets paid a lot of money and gets free laptops and nice things and still gets to have a good time doing it, drinking Pimm's and watching horse racing for a living.

He just emailed me and will be coming home for the Christmas season, complete with two bottles of fresh sloe gin he bottled himself - apparently there is a field of slow berries right behind his house that he uses. And of course, a couple of dope-ass bottles with the cool caps on top help, too.

Anyway, we will be consuming Sloe Gin Fizzes to celebrate the passing of 2008; I'm also hoping to get my hands on some smuggled 'Pimm's Winter' for the restaurant. We shall see.
