I know I should be adding more content regularly, but this time I want to blame that bastard Steve Jobs and my ever malfunctioning Macbook for this current delay. I hate that guy…. …. yet blindly buy his products relentlessly nonetheless.

(Disclaimer: pretty much all of the foreign people from foreign lands that I have ever met have generally been super cool. Except when I was in Sacramento. Those folk are terrifying. Onward.) Tiare blogs about cocktails over at A Mountain Of Crushed Ice and I have often been impressed with the drinks she offers up [...]

Continuing on with my gushfest of all things Tales of the Cocktail related, I want to introduce to you a few of the people that made my New Orleans experience taste so much brighter. First up, the aptly named Chad Doll of Bryants Cocktail Lounge in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I’m not sure I remember correctly how [...]

Oh, where to begin… New Orleans is a complex city. They love to flaunt their paradoxical ways in your face like a drag queen Lutheran pastor tickles his flock with a righteous feather boa.

I’ve been dividing my time between partnering up with Diageo and working the STX Food & Wine Experience events , getting my line of Handcrafted Local [...]

I love a good drink. Actually, I love many, many good drinks. Not a week goes by where I’m not inserting a new recipe into the hallowed shelf of my “top ten” cocktails, which seemingly hasn’t stopped at ten and can only be quantified with a difficult mathematical equation involving the absolute number of Pi [...]

unless Jim Meehan is on… Then it’s still only relevant for three minutes. (4:30 minus the 1:30 Jimmy Fallon ruins it by being Jimmy Fallon.) Speaking of relevant, remember when The Roots were? That was a good summer…..

Justin Timberlake is debuting his own Tequila. I cant wait for K-Fed to have his own Alize flavor… Boo Ya…
