A friend of mine doesn't keep her gin in the fridge
WHAT IS THIS TRAVESTY?!

I might have some in a bit.

not everyone has a specifically designated gin fridge.
Some people use them for food.

Don't mock my phobia, ok? :(

I'll tell you why one day
it's less mentally scarring than the Barefoot Story.

I saw him this weekend. Everyone failed the sweepstake. And he threw up in his sleep. I didn't know people did that any more.

have you tried keeping it in the freezer?
that's where I keep my vodka. The current bottle has frozen a lot more than I think it should

I keep my vodka, when I have it, in the freezer
but gin generally is in the fridge. Dunno why.

On the plus side I have a lot of it now.

vodka in the freezer, gin in the fridge is right

Surly Turk made Foster's Slushies on one of the first nights.
It was...interesting.

sounds alarming
but I would like a lemon slushie right now
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 1 Sep 2010, 12:07, Reply)

Limoncello slushie?
I don't drink at home, plus I'm ill. But we may have brandy in the cupboard, and I might make a hot toddy
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Wed 1 Sep 2010, 12:09, Reply)

I haven't frozen the limoncello yet
because it isn't properly made.

Brandy is nice. It makes hot chocolate bearable. For a proper hot cold curing drink hot whisky with sugar, lemon and a tiny bit of ginger (optional) is lovely

I'll scour the cupboards
I do have my 35% alcohol vanilla essence, though a few drops of that in hot milk is enough so alcohol is negligible.

I forgot to thank you for the mint vodka tips, thanks
I'm going to give it a try for a party this weekend

you're welcome
hope it comes out well.

I keep gin in the freezer
it pours like a thin syrup and it means you can make martinis without polluting it with ice-water.

With the shit gin though.
