4 oz Champagne

1/3 oz Gin

1/2 oz Tangerine Schnapps

Hmm, have not tried it ....not my typical choise of ingredients..but it may be good...finding "tangerine Schnapps" might be difficult and how often would you drink it afterwards?

I had some Zone tangerine vodka once and it was terrible. I would rather squeeze the juice from a tangerine and dump it into some regular vodka it was that bad!

Em,

You like those too? I was drinking a bunch of those last night.

I also had a few that were a variation of those...They were one part bourbon to two parts bourbon and then I added an ice cube or two and omitted the last bourbon.

We are going to barbecue chicken and pork shoulder steak tomorrow. I''m not sure how many will show up. I plan on having a few Baby Saz Old Fashioneds while grilling.

No fireworks this year. But we will be doing some shooting. I've got a bunch of .454's and .44 mag loaded and a five gallon bucket of 12 ga.

1 1/8 oz loads and 7 cases of clay pigeons. Also going to help a buddy of mine mount a scope I'm selling him on a K-31 (7.5mm X 55 Swiss) the funky detachable side mount. I couldn't get him to drill and tap the receiver. Collectors, they never want to ruin a gun's "collector's value".
