ask meme!

[queenlua]

stealing a meme from necrophilia:

So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me, something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about, or something you've always been curious about but have never asked, or something completely silly that you'd like me to answer for kicks. No limits on the range of questions, either: ask me anything you want to know about, whether it's a fannish opinion or a question about a fic of mine or trivia about my real life or my thoughts on events in the offline world.

Ask away. ♥

(my answers might, uh, take a few days *stares at Friday deadline for a thing* but feel free to ask away in the meantime!)

What is the best mixed drink you have ever had?

[queenlua]

ooooh that's a good q

the first three that come to mind:

1) there's a ridiculous pretentious speakeasy here in Seattle that does that whole "we have no menu, just tell us ~*~what you have in mind~*~ and we'll make a drink based around that concept" schtick

which is usually not worth it, because the drinks are all like 20+ bucks and take a while to make, BUT, i went there once for a friend's going away party and like. that shit was really good. in particular, i remember being impressed that i requested "something that tastes like sweetarts, but like, the classiest sweetarts you've ever had in your life," and DAMN if that wasn't exactly the drink i got??? incredible. delicious. 10/10 would order again

2) the best drink i've discovered in the past year is the espresso martini. it's so simple, just vodka and kahula and a shot of espresso, but it's so GOOD—normally i'm not that into vodka as a base, and not that into coffee, but they just work together really well here? and FORTUNATELY bird guy has a press-button espresso machine here at home, so, i can make it for myself ANY TIME I WANT lol

3) this tiki bar in LA is insanely good and insanely dangerous. every single thing i ordered there was astounding, but also, even though i normally hold my liquor insanely well, after two drinks i was extremely done. the tiki drinks there had a lot of... texture? depth? to them, that i haven't tasted elsewhere? like, i love tiki drinks, but ordinarily they just taste like someone dumped every fruit juice in the house in with the rum., right? and here they tasted like something special. 10/10, would walk to a weird rando tiki shack next to a giant highway again

These all sound... delightful. I mean, I'm a lightweight so I'm pretty sure that tiki bar would kill me instantly, but a delightful death???
