An incredibly delicious (not) gin and tonic tonight. Made with my homegrown (not) gin that I distilled with all homegrown ingredients of cypress, coriander seed, lemon balm, elderflower and oak moss.

A big shout out to @drinkswriter his book about gin opened my eyes to the vast varied amounts of different ingredients that can go into gin and inspired me to try to make a completely homegrown gin. It turned out so much better than I expected. I'm stupidly proud of myself.

A Collins glass of gin and tonic stands between an empty bottle of fever tree, a bottle of (not) gin and a bottle of regans' orange bitters.

So it's been a while, we got this pseudo gin proofed down (even at 45% it started to louche) and I've started drinking it.

Straight it's kinda rough, there's a harshness to it that I think is from just too much cypress. Ignoring that, it's incredibly flavorful; it tastes like gin but it's wrong because the evergreen flavor is obviously not juniper.

Mixed in drinks like a G&T or Gimlet it is fantastic, the evergreen comes through and really makes the drink stand out.

Going to attempt making a "gin" today using all ingredients grown in my property. This means no juniper berries, as a substitute I'm using cypress branches/needles. My orris root is still two years out but I read about oakmoss as a fixative which is growing all over my maple tree, also got lemon balm, elderflower, and coriander seeds in the mix. Hopefully it turns out well, I have no idea what I'm doing, LOL

Every tax free weekend I mull, is there something a little pricey I might like to have and would benefit from being tax free? Two years ago I bought a draft tap system for beer I transport home in my growler. Still love that thing. Didn't need anything last year. This year it's a lab distiller to make extracts from the myriad herbs on my deck: lemon balm, mints, anise hyssop, eucalyptus and others. I'll use them for my lotions and amaro. Excited! #DIY #distilling #maker

A byproduct from #distilling Scotch #whisky could become a key ingredient in green fuel soon, new research reveals. The team of scientists at Heriot-Watt University in Scotland believe this breakthrough will create a sustainable way to use the estimated one million tons of #wastewater produced annually at Scottish #distilleries. #energy studyfinds.org/whisky-wastewat
