Dear Drinkers. I have spent quite a few words, in an earlier post, summarizing my thoughts on what I’m about to touch on. It’s not an end. Hell, it’s not even the denouement yet. It is, however, a signal. A beacon. A guiding light, that lets us know that even when it seems like we’re losing something dear; we may be gaining something new as well.
And we could use more of that, these days.
It’s The Shot Seen Round The World; The Somboom. @Ask-king-sombra
I... Really can’t stress enough how good a person Wiggles is. How much I’ve watched her art, and storytelling grow, at a rate that has left me in the dust. How ironclad and admirable her update schedule is, How she is, quite simply, the most professional artist in Tumblrpon.
This one’s for you, dude. Goddamn do you deserve it.
As Many Shot Glasses As You Want, Chilled
Put Ice, Juice, and both liquors into Shaker. You’re going to use the juice and two liquors in a 1:1:1 ratio, so make sure you stick to that, for however many shots you’re going to make,
Dip each glass mouth down into the water..
Dip each glass mouth down into the salt
Strain shaken mixture into glasses, being careful of salt rim..
You’ve just made The Somboom!
I can’t draw. The use of pencil, or pen, or brush, or tablet eludes me. Truth be told, I have always been jealous, envious, and desirous of that capacity to create.
But I can make these recipes. And Nobody else can.
This one, for example, was based off of a Blue Kamikaze. It was intentionally made sweeter, however, so I could rub SALT AND TEARS all over the rim.~
So here’s my honoring. Here’s my glass raised high.
To Wiggles! For What She’s Done, And What She’ll Do!
You may want to meander over to http://drambuieandscotch.tumblr.com/ . You might find a newly created Mod-Blog I was peer-pressured into creating after nearly five years without one. Do not expect deep truths. Expect snark and cat-videos.
Keep sending in suggestions as to who you’d like to see made into a drink, and Stay Thirsty, Dear Drinkers!
