Drank Boulevardier
An old fashioned glass with a large square ice cube and an eerie , blood red cocktail chills in front of a large gray Royal KMG typewriter. In the background a work lamp illuminates a group of books on a book case.

The blood red of the boulevardier works well on the night before Samhain. I’m pairing it with the 1950 Royal KMG (pica) to write about the ghosts of the year past.

@chrisaldrich Remind me. Is that a Negroni with Bourbon?

@jeremycherfas Yes, exactly, though most recipes call for a 3:2:2 ratio (a bit more Bourbon) versus the typical 1:1:1 ratio of the Negroni. The Rye and dry vermouth variation would be called an Old Pal.

@chrisaldrich Thanks. I’ve only ever had one, versus innumerable negroni, and it was delicious.
