@jonathan:
Thanks for the description of a true macchiato. I was just asking someone what those were the other day. Any of the chains make decent ones?
@patty:
The last part of your #12 answer, LOL.
Oh yeah, I used to like bloody marys too, as well as very good champagne or a quality cab, then there were mudslides, Long Island iced tea, screwdrivers, 40 oz. malt liquor bottles during the lean times, or the ever popular "let me rummage through my liquor cabinet and refrigerator and throw together anything I can find that sounds remotely plausible." That last strategy led me to the discovery that Gatorade is not a good mixer. Thank you for letting me share that with you.
