Here's what led me to try fizzing whiskey.
"Yielding the best results when carbonated is whiskey. It becomes light, refreshing, and keeps its taste intact. Try using top-shelf whiskey for a more sophisticated drink."
Might be that adding the water was the mistake. Maybe I'l give it another try with a smaller volume.
Oh, cool! Thanks! When I first got mine (thanks BHD) I dreamed of fizzing some of my homemade limoncello!

Well, youâre only supposed to fizz plain water! And then add flavors etc after fizzing. I use a bunch of different SodaStream syrups and flavor drops, and bitters. Yummy.

had to get rid of my soda stream; something about the bubbles it imparted didn't taste right... wanted my mojitos to be bubbly, but store-bought soda water just tastes better.

That's interesting that you can make tonic with that. Sugarless?
I normally put Campari in my G&T to give it a boost, but this stuff with the angostura bark does something good. I made some tonic syrup a few years ago, still have some cinchona bark so I should make more, but I made a double batch before and it went moldy really fast so that was disappointing. But you can make it super strong then...
SodaStream has a whole line of syrups, sugar free too. I make ginger ale and tonic all the time. Theyâve also got some sugar free flavor drops (fruit flavors) that are nice.
I got a SodaStream recently. What are you making? I tried to fizz some water/bourbon but it got too foamy and sprayed all over the place. Which smelled great to me, but the Better Half⢠didnât appreciate it.

might? my grandfather the farmer always said:
mite is a little bug on a chicken's ass
now get busy, daylight is burning
the florida keys are definitely worth a visit
maybe rent an rv and cruise the parks and campgrounds
bring shorts, tshirts, sunglasses and flip flops
leave the watch in your travel bag
you'll learn and experience the fine art of "island time"
or temporarily not giving f**k about "manufactured insanity'
better yet if you can rent a skiff a go out in front into flats it's crazy cool
tool up to a sandbar or into shallows and jump in waist deep water and enjoy libations and the scenery
just spectacular stuff
... and don't forget the spf 30 sun screen and bug repellent.
I love Fever-Tree stuff, but since I've been making tonic with my SodaStream (which I love, as I can make it as strong as I like) I haven't splurged on any.

Tonight in honor of All Soul's Day and my parents, I am drinking some bourbon, in the one American Brilliant cut glass tumbler I inherited from my mother. Also in celebration of our democracy.

There's a grocery store here, what do you call them, they sell past-date food and day old bread etc. We learned slowly that breakfast cereal is going to be chewy after blowing past its sellby date but some things are going to be good as new. Case in point: Cocktail mixers and ... Tonic water. For some reason, they always have some of the expensive Q or Fever Tree tonics and I always buy it. They have a lot of varieties, Q does "Indian" or regular and I can't tell much difference if I add gin but just as a soda pop (yeah I'm crazy) the Indian is sweeter. This one though is best so far: Fever Tree Aromatic... sweet but bitter too, with angostura bark (not the bitters but it's bitter). I paid $1.50 for a 4-pack, you'll pay $6 or $7 but honestly, you'll like it. Skip the lime.

Know a person in the Midwest US who rents a bike locker in Miami so he doesn't have to fly his bike down for his annual winter ride out to Key West. Sounds very cool, but I think I'd drive.
