Your Beverage For Ushering In The New Year

Same as whenever I have a cocktail. A martini with either Gordons or Brokers gin though I am having both tonight. A small dash of M&R Extra Dry and a pickled okra.

Bowmore Single Malt from the island of Islay. I seem to no longer to be able to afford Lagavulin, so I substitute the Bowmore which is a close cousin at less than half the price. Another substitute is Singleton, also an Islay malt and very similar in flavor. Unfortunately, my local liquor mart doesn't handle Singleton, so I rely on Bowmore. Usually 2 oz. over ice with water 1 to 1. Or, sometimes I forget the water.
