I don’t give a damn how you invented it, Jennings, just pour before I bloody sober up.
Birthday presents that are complete surprises are the best birthday presents in the world. Creme de Cassis wasn’t on my wish list, but here I am 6 months later utterly addicted to the stuff. I take my martini glass or red-wine glass, drop in a decent amount of the purple poison – a little bit more than a shot, a little bit less than a gallon – and top it up with anything fizzy & close to hand. Diet 7up mixed with a little Sprite seems to be the best combination.
And I drink alone!
It’s a light drink, like a kir but less alcoholic, it feels like a soft drink, so you never feel you’re drinking alone. I won’t try to persuade you to try it. I’m no alcohol pushing lush. But I’ll leave the idea to swish around your head for a little. You’ll see. One day you’ll be passing by the liqueur section at the supermarket and suddenly have the urge to drop a bottle into your shopping trolley.
Afterall, one glass a night does not an alcoholic make.
Size of glass is completely up to you.
