In 2018 as a New Year’s resolution I will be trying a different classic cocktail every day for a year.
This blog will be that journey, and will be a combination of cocktail recipes, photos and a drinking journal for 2018. for more information please visit the Intro post.
We hope you enjoy joining us on this cocktail crawl as much as we plan on enjoying it
