Mediciney

Tried it after five days of steeping. It tasted…mediciney. Like a bad liqueur. It smells really good, as long as you don’t get your nose too close to it.

blissfulwizard said that it’s a pretty shade of green. Ahem.

I’m not ready to give up yet. We have a whole bottle of this stuff. Some ideas:

  • Make Bloody Marys.
  • Make gimlets.
  • Make Lemon Drops.

Any other suggestions?



The basil is now steeping

At blissfulwizard’s birthday party Wednesday night, we put some basil in a jar with some vodka, and left the jar in a cupboard.

I never did find basil-infused vodka at a bar in San Francisco, despite asking at quite a few bars that specialize in imaginative drinks, like Rye, Lush Lounge, Madrone, and Lime Lounge.



Two new leads

A co-worker suggested two places that she thinks serve basil-infused vodka: Burma Superstar’s bar, and Osha, a local, überhip Thai chain.



A lead

I mentioned my search, and someone overheard and suggested Velvet Cantina in the Mission District. This might be the one…



A lead

A friend has told me to order a basil gimlet at a bar called Rye in the Tenderloin.



This might be harder to find...

...than a mojito. On last Friday’s adventures, I asked each bartender if they serve basil-infused vodka, and each said no.

Does anyone know where in San Francisco to get a basil-infused vodka?
