Day 49: Cucumber Mary

What. Is. Happening.

I’m using VODKA.

I do think that’s something you can do and have a nice cocktail. I’ve just been avoiding it intentionally, because I think it lends itself to laziness. (It’s also possible I have some residual new-found cocktail snobbery.)

I ended up at William’s house tonight and was having difficulty coming up with a cocktail based on his limited ingredients (he was completely out of citrus fruits, just like I have been lately). I saw the Green Mary mix from New Year’s in his fridge and decided to try a lighter version with club soda. It’s not bad! The soda does seem a bit strange in it, but it also makes it seem more like a drink and less like a bowl of boozy tomato soup.
