I’ve had this basil soaking in 190 proof Everclear since last year.
I started trying to clean up the workshop and realized I needed some painkiller to make that happen. I also had some black cherry Kool-Aid.
I cannot recommend this as a taste about beverage. But I can say that the flavors are subtle and complex when mixed together. They’re not unpleasant. I’m pretty sure I could make a stunning cocktail out of this with a bit more sugar.
Why am I cleaning the workshop? Because temperatures are getting warm enough where wood glue works again. And the workshop is a hot mess.
I grew up on jager. My parents were both bar tenders in middle school. We didn’t have NyQuil in the house. Jager was cheaper and more effective if you were sick. This was the 80s before jager really took off.
This would need some fennel or licorice to get even close to the flavor of jager.
Sick and piss drunk but at least asleep hahaha
