Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything. [View all]

Two shots to get the party started. Now a Scorpion. Rum, cognac, dry vermouth, orange juice, lemon juice, simple syrup, and a marischino cherry. Poured over ice in a chilled wine goblet. Yummy! Nice and citrusy.

Relaxing after a busy, but very good, rewarding day in clinic.

I love you all…
