LONG ISLAND ICED TEA..... It's fun to watch some neophyte drinker down one on the assumption that it's iced tea.....

My uncle & aunt had a champagne brunch one Christmas. a couple of sips & the kitchen starts spinning like a turntable.

My Christmas morning cocktail is Franciacorta and orange juice - beats 'Bucks Fizz' but more than two and the turntable can start!!

A tiny amount of champagne -- Oh, boy.

They had champagne at a retirement banquet for a department head at a Catholic hospital. A couple of glasses & - I'm NOT proud of this AT ALL - I was chatting up a young nun. DEFINITELY NOT one of my finer moments ! 🙄🙄 I'm going to Hell.....

Or in my next life, I'll be a tapeworm or a patch of pond scum..... It's a slippery slope.

This little history of gin was so interesting, thank you, Harry! I used to dislike gin, but now it’s my go to…Hendricks over ice, maybe a green olive or two thrown in. Plus the bottle is pretty.
