an unanticipated problem with my silly little dnd cocktails is that I like the nightcap but I do not, it turns out, very much care for a brandy alexander, which is what it was based on but is much simpler and quicker to make :')

#I'm willing to blame this on the fact that I can only seem to find cheap creme de cacao which is maybe affecting the flavor?#anyway it's very annoying. oh I think I'd like to enjoy a nice little beverage :) time to pull out fifteen ingredience #(it's only five or six ingredients depending on how I make it)#(but it's also a shaker and two strainers and a separate container to lightly whip the cream in because it's floated on the top and--)#brandy alexander is just 'dump two spirits and some cream in a shaker and shake it. tada'#the trouble is I HAVE the stuff to make much simpler cocktails but this keeps being what I'm in the mood for :')#just not the lazier version with fewer steps and tools and dishes of course 🙄#it's really not just 'hehehoohoo melliwyk drink' it's genuinely I Like It and keep wanting to make one :')#which is VERY INCONVENIENT!!#why can't I be in the mood for JUNIPER'S silly little nerd cocktail (raspberry g&t) 😔#about me #potions
