But I've been inspired by Propter Doc to try again, first by her request for the saketini recipe, and second by her new cocktail, the Propter. So I've decided to start a regular feature cross-posted here and at Books 'n' Booz, in which I will post a cocktail recipe, photo and review every Monday.Why on Mondays, you ask? Well, it's one of the only days I can think of that doesn't already have a blog convention associated with it, and also, often you really need a drink on Mondays.
So, without further ado, the first Cocktail Monday: The Saketini.
Saketini1 1/2 oz gin
1/4 oz sake
Stir with cracked ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a slice of fresh cucumber.
Refreshing, simple, and I love the cucumber. There's something about vegetables soaked in liquor...
Suggested appetizers: edamame, wasabi peas

mmmm, I love wasabi peas!
You have inspired me to drink more cocktails on Mondays. Looks lovely!
gee... can I have one? I could sure use a drink... this monday's been so long, it feels like friday already (and she ain't over yet)! ;)
one of our favorite places to go in undergrad had "martini mondays"... a perfect way to unwind at the beginning of the week! as far as I'm concerned you're right in style! can't wait for more drink ideas!
