Outrageous Drinks

Over the last month or so I've had some delicious drinks at the Justus Drugstore Store. Mixologist Chris Conatser is amazingly good. He majored in botany and this is why he is so fantastic at making drinks. He knows his herbs and he knows organic is the best way to go.

I'm ashamed that I once described one of Chris's drinks as just an infused vodka concoction. It was a blueberry infused vodka with orange and lemon juice, orange bitters, and sparkling water. The restaurant has many house infused liquors and homemade aromatic bitters.

I love the celery foam. I'm sure my brother would reprimand me but foams remind me of what a savory aerosol wiped cream in various favors would taste like — in this case celery. Chris made me an Applejack, St. Germaine Elderflower Liqueur, homemade dry vermouth drink with this celery foam. Forgive me because Rachael Ray annoys me but "Yum Oh". Another similar one to the previous and just as yummy, but with gin, Applejack, lemon juice, homemade grenadine and that delicious celery foam. Oh god what would I do without his and wife's restaurant here? Well, I wouldn't be here without my head in the oven.

I've just mentioned the cocktails, not the painstakingly picked wines that go with the entrees as if E-Harmony was involved.

There will be more on this later, in the meantime: www.drugstorerestaurant.com
