Especially for Rufus
After school on Wednesday, I went down to Annex Cookery and the Tin Front Cafe. I was in the market for a new espresso maker. I ordered a lunch portion of their four cheese macaroni and a mixed greens salad with balsamic and asiago cheese shavings on top. And what do you know? As I sat there, I saw the infused vodka on the glass shelf and thought of Blogger Rufus’ Food and Spirits Guide. (AKA Greg) and here is the wild part- his post today is about Pepper Infused VODKA!
Horseradish Vodka? (they use it for Bloody Marys) Ellie explained how they make it.
I knew he would not care for the Apple Raisin Infused Rum (he detests raisins as I’ve read his wife Katherine’s writings about that topic) but I just thought the line of glass bottles filled with colored spirits and the labels would be of special interest to him.
What a coincidence! I was a little taken aback by the horseradish-infused vodka until I read how it’s used. Perfect! Now I want a Bloody Mary. I think I’ll settle for a Manhattan and call it a night.

Cheers!
She did say that the Winter one was likened to drinking a Potpourri Candle by some and others love it!

I love the shapes and colors of the bottles.

When I looked at the colorful bottles I thought of the flavors used to pour over snow cones. ( shaved ice ) Yummy. Very colorful photo.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!

Cilantro/habenero? Oh thanks for the shout out, you’re too nice, and the great photo and the inspiration! The coincidence is too funny.
