Jilly, it was not that good over the holidays. Roads closed for black ice and a blizzard in Wichita Falls (I was about 25 miles from there and had to turn back after finding the road (Interstate 287) had been closed for the last 7 hours. But mostly yeah, nice weather usually.

Do you prefer your margaritas frozen or blended?

The best one I ever had was at a San Antonio mexican place. Frozen. It was like candy, but packed with alcohol. I don't know how they did it.

OK has more of it, but the thing about bad weather in TX is it's so fleeting. One day it snows and the next day it's gone.

I like them every which way, really. If it's an authentic mexican place, then on the rocks, but tex mex, I'd have to say frozen.

I have psychic powers. So I should show up at the Phoenix around 8 Sat? WE can talk Tillich and Augustine while listening to jazz and I'll feel like I'm back in seminary. Fyi, I'm kidding. I have a funeral to do Saturday.

The problem with frozen (other than the fact that they're for pussies), is that they are very often from a machine. That means that it's pre-mixed. That means that it's inferior to a hand crafted cocktail.

Actually the best one I've ever had was from a machine...

...so yeah, probably for pussies.

frozen drinks are for vaginas

NewChief · 01-07-2010, 12:22 PM

I was just kidding about the pussies, thing.... sort of.

Actually, there are people who like their cocktails to mask the flavor/presence of the alcohol and there are people who like their cocktails to enhance and highlight the flavor of their cocktails. I'm firmly in the latter. My preferred cocktails are usually things like maker's on the rocks, scotch neat, or martinis. I like to taste my booze (probably too much). I think that frozen drinks are intended to hide the presence of the booze. That's not what I want out of a drink.

There's a place on The Hill in STL (the Italian neighborhood) that serves beer in frozen fishbowl glasses that size.

Rigazzi's famous for those. haven't been since they had a fire few years ago.
