Cuban Cocktail No. 2

Well, we're back. I've been extraordinarily busy studying for the bar, so we haven't been able to post much recently. We will probably be posting at least once or twice a week but we will be deviating somewhat from the order. Since we will be moving, we don't want to purchase any new bottles of alcohol, so we will be jumping around a little bit.

Today's drink is the Cuban Cocktail No. 2. I have not yet discoved the Cuban Cocktail No. 1, but I will keep you posted. This drink consists of the juice of 1/2 a lime or 1/4 a lemon, 1/2 an ounce of apricot flavored brandy, 1 1/2 ounces of brandy, and a teaspoon of light rum. Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

I like this drink. The apricot flavored brandy mixed with the lemon juice is pretty good. Shannon says it is not bad after being off the horse for a while. She was surprised when I told her we used lemon juice instead of lime juice.
