I have to admit that I was not looking forward to writing today's cocktail of the week. All of my top 10 favorite drinks cocktails have been covered already. On top of that, Summer is gently fading away setting us smack in the middle of the no man's land of not-quite-Fall. Hearty winter drinks aren't appropriate and margaritas poolside are definitely iffy. I went through Alice's card file of recipes and a couple recipes basically jumped out at me, the cards laying strewn across the bar. I looked at them carefully, seeing the pattern that segregates different liquors from mixers, Tom from John, and Collins from sour. If you know your drinks you are going to smile at where this took me.
