Too pure and good for this world.

If you're in New Orleans, you can visit the Revel Cafe & Bar if you want to see him! He founded it and I believe is still whipping up drinks there behind the bar.

This is the full thing he recites:

quote:

Then comes the zenith of man’s pleasure. Then comes the julep – the mint julep. Who has not tasted one has lived in vain. The honey of Hymettus brought no such solace to the soul; the nectar of the Gods is tame beside it. It is the very dream of drinks, the vision of sweet quaffings.

The Bourbon and the mint are lovers. In the same land they live, on the same food they are fostered. The mint dips infant leaf into the same stream that makes The Bourbon what it is. The corn grows in the level lands through which small streams meander. By the brook-side the mint grows. As the little wavelets pass, they glide up to kiss the feet of the growing mint, and the mint bends to salute them. Gracious and kind it is, living only for the sake of others. Like a woman’s heart it gives its sweetest aroma when bruised. Among the first to greet the spring, it comes. Beside gurgling brooks that make music in the fields, it lives and thrives. When the bluegrass begins to shoot its gentle sprays towards the sun, mint comes, and its sweetest soul drinks at the crystal brook. It is virgin then. But soon it must be married to old Bourbon. His great heart, his warmth of temperament, and that affinity which no one understands, demands the wedding.

How shall it be? Take from the cold spring some water, pure as angels are; mix it with sugar till it seems like oil. Then take a glass and crush your mint within it with a spoon – crush it around the borders of the glass and leave no place untouched. Then throw the mint away – it is the sacrifice. Fill with cracked ice the glass; pour in the quantity of Bourbon which you want. It trickles slowly through the ice. Let it have time to cool, then pour your sugared water over it. No spoon is needed; no stirring allowed- just let it stand a moment. Then around the brim place sprigs of mint, so that the one who drinks may find the taste and odor at one draft.

Then when it is made, sip it slowly. August suns are shining, the breath of the south wind is upon you. It is fragrant cold and sweet – it is seductive. No maidens kiss is tenderer or more refreshing, no maidens touch could be more passionate. Sip it and dream-it is a dream itself. No other land can give you so much sweet solace for your cares; no other liquor soothes you in melancholy days. Sip it and say there is no solace for the soul, no tonic for the body like old Bourbon whiskey.

Have you seriously seen a box for ethnicity only have "hispanic" and "non-hispanic" in TYOOL 2018?

I mean, assuming you don't live in S. Florida, because that very well may be the case down there.

I’m a firefighter medic and every single medical run, every single patient, we have to choose either Hispanic or White Non-Hispanic. That’s it. No other options. I have no clue why. The city I work in is like 90% middle eastern, and 10% white people. In the tens of thousands of medical runs I’ve done, I’ve treated like 4 Hispanic people.

Anyone who takes cocktails too seriously is AUG. They were made to make drinking what was essentially wood alcohol tolerable. They're good and do their job, but gently caress the hell off if you think round ice or pouring $1500 bourbon into a glass with sugar is even remotely classy. Take your medicine like the rest of us and shut the hell up about locally sourced artisanal bitters.

Best cocktail comes from The Talisman:

"Bring me an elementary martini," she said.
The waiter raised his eyebrows. "Madam?"
"Ice in a glass," she said. "Olive on ice. Tanqueray gin over olive. Then--are you getting this?"...
"Yes, madam."
"Then," she said, "you take a bottle of vermouth--any brand--and hold it against the glass. Then you put the vermouth back on the shelf and bring the drink to me, 'Kay?"

I waited for him to use the mallet, and it was just to smash the ice. I love a well prepared cocktail, but I don't get all elitist because they're loving expensive in some places, so i feel more dumb ordering a 17$ old fashioned so I can't really look down at someone who has a pabst.

Were you expecting the mallet to be used on the mint? Because giving mint more than a slight press will make it bitter.
