Simple Pleasures: Drinks

[cbloom]

Mint Julep : fresh mint, muddled with sugar, bourbon, crushed ice

Sidecar : 1 brandy : 1 countreau : 1 lemon juice

Old Fashioned : rye or whisky, bitters, sugar, orange

(I know, sort of more than 2)

The problem with these 3 drinks is that they're great when done well, but they taste like ass at a typical bar which is staffed by morons.
