for those who missed the most important part of the talk i gave at Surface Design
here it is
the recipe for my new cocktail - invented out of necessity when the tonic tide was ebbing after store hours -
and for which i still have to dream up an appropriate name -
more on
that later
in a chilled glass
slosh a bit of Bombay gin
add
a healthy splash of Concord Grape Juice [sugar free, of course]
squeeze in a wedge of fresh lime

top up with tonic [Schweppes for preference]
muddle a bit
and
enjoy
feel free to contribute to naming suggestions...
