So the original plan was to be in Germany for Christmas. I booked it early in 2020 . I had it all planned. I was going 59 stay in Munich and take some day trips to Rotenburg and Salzburg. Never in my imagination did I think we would not get Covid under control by December. I was wrong, really really wrong. I had also planned a trip to South Africa for October that was cancelled bu5 for some reason , not being able to travel at Christmas was really bothering me. So I decided to make the best of it . I got a big tree and decided to take the time off work I would have taken originally. I need a break. This was night one. A Vesper in front of the tree watching the Kath and Kim Christmas special Da Kath and Kim code. I’ve seen it before it’s really funny and I am completely over Hallmark movies.
The cocktail is a Vesper . It is named after Vesper Lynn of James Bond E origin recipe in the book called for “ three measures of Gordon’s , one of vodka , half measure of Kina Lillet . Shake over ice and add a thin slice of lemon peel” Not going to argue with perfection.
Happy Holidays!
