Ooh, great name (great album, too)... This looks delicious. Wish Sorel would hurry up and make its way down to Texas...



Bevx commented on 2/21/2014:

So, because my girlfriend is the best Valentine ever, I am now in possession of what must be one of the first bottles of Sorel in the Dallas area. Holy sha-moley, that is some tasty juice!... Anyway, this was the first drink we tried, and we both loved it! Had to make a few minor last-minute adjustments, though: I was low on ice, so I served it up; and I realized too late that my last 2 lemons were dry and sad, so I subbed grapefruit peel (which worked quite nicely).


DrunkLab commented on 2/23/2014:

Glad you both liked it. Sorel is delicious and versatile and I can't wait to see what people do with it as it becomes widely available. Your girlfriend is awesome for getting a bottle into Texas.

  • Unbalanced. Hard to drink. Needs something sweet.
  • Leatherbee Gin A little too boozy. Will try again with less gin or absinthe. Loved the flavor. — ★★★
  • Made with middling gin (Beefeater) and middling absinthe substitute (Herbsaint). A little too licorice-y for my taste. — ★★★
