Day #12: Pond Scum
Feb. 13th, 2010 11:59 pmWe celebrated anti-Valentine's Day a day early, heading out to the fancy restaurant in town with a group of girlfriends followed by a trip to one of the "grown-up" bars. (This is a college town, so the "grown-up" bars are those where you have to be 21 to enter and you're much less likely to run into one of your students.)
I think that in the future, if we do this again, I'm just going to pass on getting a drink at the restaurant. It was okay, but not sweep you off your feet awesome. That was at the bar. The martinis were wonderful. (How did I not know the bar had awesome martinis?) But I started out by telling the bartender what I did and didn't like and they suggested a Pond Scum.
Regardless of the name, it tastes pretty awesome. It was a bright fluorescent green, which really surprised me (but has me fairly certain that the recipe using Midori is the correct one). Definitely something I'd get again in the future.
