Bad Cocktails

To my memory, I've only made two really awful cocktails. That's awful as in, "my god this shit is bad, throw it down the sink, you must have fucked it up" as opposed to: "that's not a taste I enjoy".

The x-mas eve party Manhattan was bad. The Andys did their best to put on a brave face and slug through - they had been warned after all. However, the real shock was The Ramos Gin Fizz. I had looked forward to making (and drinking) this beverage for a long time. The lack of orange flower water had always prevented me from attempting. So on the happy day that I track some down, I was well disapointed.

Just as I have learned to like Campari and Whiskey, I will attempt yet again. Although I think I'll be my on test subject. My cadre of volunteers seem to like sure fire things not eggs and cream (not that I blame them mind you).
