Does anyone else remember the magazine Budget Living? Sadly it's now defunct, but I always looked forward to each new issue. This weekend I found a stash of old magazines, including a copy of Budget Living's October 2005 issue. Naturally, I had to stop what I was doing and look through all the pages. I became absorbed with the issue and was surprised when I came across a really great looking drink recipe. Surprised because I'm sure I must have read it before, and yet it seemed totally new to me. Actually, I should make that totally new and totally tempting. I'm learning to appreciate whiskey more, and I already love ginger ale, so I think this one might become a new favorite.
