We're big bourbon drinkers and if we don't have some Woodford Reserve around (we used to), we have others to choose from. The other cocktail (Black-eyed Susan) sounds interesting, but I'm not a fan of vodka. Love the names of these drinks!Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-33274437325551158652012-06-11T13:43:39.557-04:002012-06-11T13:43:39.557-04:00I so need to try a Mint Julep!

I don't drink enough alcohol to keep it on hand, though--just a bottle of wine (in the fridge...for shame).<br /><br />Hope you're having a wonderful day Nan!Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-46190797470842925852012-06-10T16:43:22.722-04:002012-06-10T16:43:22.722-04:00"I'll Have Another!"
