Episode 52- Spilled T
The one where T wonders, “What the shit, Jill?”
You ever been out shopping, made polite conversation (“Hi, how are you?” “Fine, you?”), and had the floodgates open? Being the recipient of an overshare isn’t uncommon. Especially for T. Seriously, he’s the king of overshare receipt. Gina thinks it’s the eyebrow, but Jill insists that, now that she’s personally witnessed it, he’s truly not inviting it. So he’s guesting tonight to share his experiences.
Tonight’s drink? Kentucky Mule. Because yum.
Actually, Kentucky Mule is just about my favorite. Not just because #bourbon but also because the combination of bourbon and ginger and lime is practically perfection. Especially if you use a Rye. Rye is my favorite. If you like a Moscow Mule, then a Kentucky Mule will definitely float your boat. Made with Kentucky Bourbon, simple syrup/mule mix, ginger beer and fresh lime it’s super easy to make and is currently T’s & my go-to cocktail nearly every night. We sometimes do use our mule mugs (the totally sweet copper kind) like we did here. I admit though, sometimes I just use a plain rocks glass and some bougie ice.
