yesterday was a very exciting day.

i have been on the lookout

for fresh bergamot

for a couple of years now.

i always seem to just miss

its short growing season.

but this year is different. i bought $25 of bergamot

at BiRite market in San Francisco,

juiced it all, & froze it in ice cubes trays

so i can have it on hand

(especially when summer strikes)

for this uniquely delicious cocktail...

THE B-LINE

Place a chunk of orange in a glass (about 1/2 of a slice). Muddle.
Add a splash of orange bitters, 1/2 oz honey syrup (made by reducing 50% water & 50% honey), 1 oz bergamot juice, 1 1/2 oz bourbon, and 3/4 oz Lillet Blanc.
Shake and serve up.
