Thanks V. Do you put the vanilla beans in the vodka bottle and throw that in the freezer? I'm thinking the infusing is gonna start real soon.

Yep, halve bean and scrape out inside, best to wisk that with some of the bottle of vodka, while freshly wisked, funnel back into bottle, insert bean as well, close and throw in freezer for 1 mo or longer. I had one that aged for about a yr that was just recently finished, it was almost a pale yellow in color - absolutely wonderful. The nose of it was very prolonged.

Cold Chocolate counted?
Thats about the coolest drink for me without inciting my "headlights" weakness! And then, wife slap in the face to regain sober posture! I love it when I am over here for biz conference. Always never fail to visit the lap dance bars! very soothing for the mind and soul, not necessarily the pocket or health though. So, the old saying, "good to look and no touch" still applies for me in every sense. Cheers!

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread and let you know I've been trying your Margarita recipe out the past couple of weeks. I tried them on just my wife and me at first and once I got everything down I made them for my Mom and Step-Dad as part of celebrating Father's Day this past wekend. I took them over to their house and made them a Mexican-themed dinner with the drinks and my homemade Green-Chile Burritos (a recipe I will gladly share if anyone is interested). I used the Don Julio Anejo Tequilla and did find the Agave Nectar as well. The Margaritas were a hit! Thanks for contributing the recipe

Perhaps we should have a wine thread, too
Thank you for the kind words, JJ. That recipe is a closely guarded pro tender & mexican secret (unless you know your barkeep well they typically don't like to do it since it is rather labor intensive)

For a Margharita, sometime try substituting fresh guava juice for the lime juice and add some crushed red dry chili-peppers into the shaker. Try different quantities to your "taste", but there is a fine restaurant in NYC called "Public" in Greenwich Village that has this drink "spot-on" and it's fabulous.
See the drink menu here: http://www.public-nyc.com/ but order it straight-up. So now, for a Manhattan: 2 parts bourbon (of your choice) 1 part white (extra dry) vermouth (trust me) 1-1/2 parts red (rosso) vermouth (trust me again) Dash of Angostura Bitters Fresh lemon 1/4 squeezed and a slice for the glass Crushed ice Shaken, not stirred...have one double and worries disappear...have two...

Glass of orange juice with a few drops of vanilla extract, best flavour combo in the world!
