This is what my brother and I like to call a “dusty bottle drink.” We like to go through our home collection to find bottles we haven’t used in a while (sometimes they’re dustier than others) to see if we can find an interesting use for them. Most of the time they end up just okay, but this one is special. Good for weirdly warm winter days or bitterly cold sunsets.
