Not too sweet, the lime is tart enough to balance out the simple syrup and the liqueurs, and you can always adjust it to taste. The easiest way is to use a straw with your finger over one end to pull a small taste out of the shaker before you pour; if it's too sweet, add more lime, too sour, add more simple syrup or Maraschino, more rum if it tastes weak, etc. You'll see bartenders in serious cocktail bars do this, it's like a chef checking the salt at the last minute before sending out a dish.

If you really don't like sweet drinks, you can make a Hemingway Daiquiri, also known as a Papa doble:

3 oz light rum
1 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1 1/2 oz fresh grapefruit juice
1 oz Maraschino liqueur
enough crushed ice to fill a 12 oz glass

Put it all in the blender and blitz it until it's smooth.

These things go down easy, but pack a lot of liquor, so unless you've got the tolerance of Old Papa, who'd down a dozen or more of these things at a sitting, take it easy. :wink:

That sounds good,I'm going to try one of those.I do like salty dogs,but light on the salt.

Anybody like potato bread? It's as moist as a desirious woman.

Bread as moist as a desirous woman, eh? you must not be that good at moistening.

I'm thinking I might have had a few too many ice waters. I need to sober up some. Ann, could you help your new bff and share some of what you're drinking.

Well, I enjoyed the Sapporo, but it's more what I'm smoking. I found the hidden lounge. :wink:

Did someone say Mexican food? How about frijoles barrachos?

Put 1/2 lb of pinto beans in a pot, cover by about 2 inches with water, and bring to a boil with 1/2 of a large white onion, diced.
Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer, partially cover the pot, and simmer gently for 2 hours.
Meanwhile, dice the other half of the onion and mince 1-2 serrano peppers, along with 4-6 strips of bacon.
Fry the minced bacon until crisp, then remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Add the onion and the peppers to the bacon grease left in the pan and sweat until the onions are translucent, a little color is okay.
After the beans have simmered for 2 hours, add the onions and the peppers, and enough salt that the broth tastes salty, simmer another 30 minutes or so, adding more water if it's below the level of the beans.
Once the beans are tender, usually after 2 1/2 hours total, check the salt again and adjust to taste, and finish with chopped cilantro, the reserved bacon, and a generous shot of tequila.

Does anyone have a recipe for a cherry flavoured cocktail? I remember having one at a cocktail bar and they included mashed cherries and lemons, amaretto liqueur, cherry marnier and other stuff, then topped up with lemonade. It contained about five different liqueurs. I got drunk from one glass. But then, I probably drank it too fast.

Speaking of drink recipes, I wish I knew how to make this drink we used to always get back in about 86. It was a watermelon shooter. No clue what was in it but it rocked. I'd make it if I could.
