- gms 1y agoI also found this to be a fun read! Was intending to skim but ended up reading the whole thing. The level of care shines through - nice work.
- pragmatick 1y agoHi! I wondered why the Gin Basil Smash is in the column with rare, specialized ingredients? Sounds pretty basic to me, especially compared with the other cocktails in the list.
- aaaronson 1y agoPurely because basil, in my experience, in the US, is not commonly stocked at bars (this might change as the gin basil smash grows in popularity). I had to go out of my way to find a bar with a gin basil smash on its menu, because the few I tried didn't have basil on hand.
- lenocinor 1y agoI drank the whole list too, but back when it was a lot easier due to having less cocktails on it, as you note in your post. Sent you an email!
