The guys over at the IGN Podcasts have been drinking Floradoras a lot lately. So of course that means we need to try them (even tho we didnt know what they were)
But reading the recipe, this really looks amazing
Floradora Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz framboise liqueur
ginger ale
lime wedge for garnish
Our neighbor always keeps gin around, lime juice and ginger ale are easy enough to come by, all we need is the raspberry liqueur. i wonder if we can sneak rasberry lambic instead...

Greatest Cocktail EVER
I'm in a few weddings in the next few months so I've been trying to cut down my alcohol intake & lose a few pounds. Now when I do drink, I've been trying to cut down on the calories from mixers, so i've been making big batches of iced tea and figuring out what is drinkable with it.
Here is the greatest cocktail ever
2 parts Bacardi Dragonberry Rum (although i think any of these flavors will probably work)
1 part simply lemonade with rasberry
5 parts fresh brewed black tea. I use twinnings black currant.
I'll have to actually measure next time and make sure this is right. If you're looking to make this even skinnier, use fresh squeezed lemon juice instead of lemonade. Still totally drinkable. I made a pitcher of these a few weeks ago and we both ended up unbelievably wasted, and didnt gain a pound ;D
