Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Bleeding Hearts

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Libation Experimentation
Happy first Friday of the off season. I trust you all enjoyed The Big Game™? I decided to do some more experimenting at the bar. When looking at my shelf of oils and vinegars when preparing dinner earlier this evening, I spied a small bottle of serrano honey. I immediately
