    Right I eyeball it so it’s hard to be sure but I’d say between 1:2 and 40% liquor probably, + lots of ice. That’s still about twice as strong as these premixeds, you’ll certainly tell the difference. I just don’t like neat liquor but I’m getting really into “short” cocktails, things like whiskey sours, basil smash, margaritas, gimlets etc where it’s mostly the main liquor with some complements.

      Yeah I eyeball too, but when you start getting into the 50/50 range things get dangerous so I keep it below that 😂 Most people don’t like straight liquor so that’s fair if you don’t like it neat. I’m a big whiskey and gin drinker so I’ll just make a Martini or Manhattan when the mood strikes. If I want something more refreshing a Mule is always great too if I can find good ginger beer!
