I’ve had this basil soaking in 190 proof Everclear since last year.

I started trying to clean up the workshop and realized I needed some painkiller to make that happen. I also had some black cherry Kool-Aid.

I cannot recommend this as a taste about beverage. But I can say that the flavors are subtle and complex when mixed together. They’re not unpleasant. I’m pretty sure I could make a stunning cocktail out of this with a bit more sugar.

Why am I cleaning the workshop? Because temperatures are getting warm enough where wood glue works again. And the workshop is a hot mess.
