Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: ‘Rol-ing Right Along
Happy middle of summer Friday. I'm still getting slowly unpacked and recovered from the last week at the beach, so I wasn't in the mood for something overly complicated to make and write about this week. I happened to remember I had some Aperol in the bar still, and saving the
Back To Reality Open Thread
Hi there! It's your resident Friday afternoon bartender checking in on a Wednesday. How are we all doing? Good? Excellent. I'm fresh off of a week in Maine, and while it was fun, it was too short and I'm ready for another break already. Being away and out and about felt

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: It’s Pronounced Nuclear
Hello and happy Friday once again. I've cleared my 'rona quarantine at FOB: Cape Cod without any positive tests so I'm finally back home. The bachelor party which was the reason for going to Vegas in the first place was highly entertaining as most bachelor parties are. I enjoyed how we
Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Punchout!
Hello and happy long weekend Friday everyone. I’m checking in from Forward Operating Base: Cape Cod this week. I’ve been isolating here since I went to Las Vegas for a bachelor party last week. Given that Sharkette isn’t vaccinated yet (looking at you FDA. You have Moderna data, review it!)
Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Judgement Day
Happy cocktail Friday! I'm excited to bring a new spirit to the arsenal of booze I keep in the bar. But first a little bit of back story. I wanted to make a tropical drink this week (a mai tai specifically) but was lacking orgeat syrup. When discussing how to
