Mint is SO invasive ... there aren't a whole lot of plants that I'm willing to maintain and herd as I do mint.
Here's a nice drink - fresh squeezed juice (or an affordable from-concentrate equivalent), club soda and a splash of quadruple-distilled vodka. Too much vodka kills the taste of the juice. Too much club soda overpowers both.
Excellent with a silly umbrella or other drink garnish.
What's that you say, Timebandit? Mojitos at LTJ's place?
I never used wild mint for anything, but I used to like the smell of it while out on the tractor cultivating and turning around in dry sloughs. The tractor wheels would crush the plants, causing the mint smell to waft through the cab.
How is 'sloughs' pronounced? Weirdly enough, I've never known ... is it sluffs? Slowz?
Rebecca... it is pronounced SLEW / SLU (if I knew how to get an umlaut, I would have put it on top of the U)
*waves to Maysie, hoping she will explain to Catchfire that I can drink him under the table*
I dunno bagkitty. Aren't we beyond all that macho crap?
.....and I'm still waiting for my invitation to come drink with you in Calgary. First round of girlie drinks are on me. By the way, I'm a two-drink drunk and I don't care who knows it. Sometimes even one and a half.

HELL NO. I get my guy points where I can. Since I can't skate, don't "do" power tools, have never been able to expel gas or belch at will and have zero reaction to what I refer to as "car porn", I am heavily dependent on my ability to consume alcohol to have any guy points at all!! Thanks for letting me know about the two-drink drunk thing, if I ever get the chance to show you that there is more to Irish whiskey than Jamieson, I will make sure I pull out the good stuff first.
i like taking cola and letting it almost freeze. so good!
