Tonight's tasty beverage: this is 1.5 oz of Chesuncook "carrot gin" from Maine Craft Distilling, 1 oz. of Freedom Run's Apple Jack, 3/4 oz of a homemade honey simple syrup that I had steeped a cinnamon stick and a few diced prunes in, with a dash of black walnut bitters. Works.

Mixed up a batch of @altonbrown's clarified milk punch recipe for Christmas Eve this year. Very tasty (one of my college-senior kids really liked it, too). That plus Christmas had me skew slightly into Victoriana to grab a photo. The sweet is a Florentine bar—almonds and candied orange peel in caramel on a shortbread crust drizzled with chocolate.

Since it's #NegroniWeek, I mixed one up tonight after heading out to see a play with my wife. This is a variation called "Eeyore's Requiem", which the creator says was inspired by "the most bitter character in literature". Ups the ante with the addition of a bit of Cynar and Fernet Branca. Very tasty.
(Also, since I'm mixing this at home, tossed a ducat or two at the Slow Food Foundation, which a participating bar would have done.)

Bought some lemons, intending to make my wife some lemonade. Didn't want the lemon oil/zest to go to waste, so bought some Everclear to make limoncello. Too much Everclear for just limoncello, so bought some oranges to make some arancello, too. Didn't want the oranges to go to waste, so made fresh-squeezed OJ, too. ♫It's the circle of booze.♪
Arancello on the left, limocello on the right.

A friend asked me to recommend a 4th of July drink, which set my mind working. Mixed myself one of these tonight post-fireworks, working with a base of things that could have made it into a drink in the Revolutionary era in New England: rum and applejack.
I'll call it a "Yankee Cobbler".
Recipe in follow-up.
This is *very* tasty.

When I first started planning this vertical tasting, it was… shorter.

It *is* Negroni Week, after all.
Botanist gin, Carpano Antica, and Campari, with a not-terribly-twisty twist.
