When researching this article, I was absolutely floored by the discovery that the Cape Codder (usually vodka and cranberry juice with lime) can be served with Gin? I have nothing against the stuff but I just can't wrap my mind around mixing the flavor of juniper berries and cranberries. It just seems odd.

But life is for living so, the next time I'm in that particular aisle of the NH State Liquor Store I'll have to buy a pint and see how it tastes.

'Then I'm gonna get a cocktail, vodka and ginger ale' - John Prine 'When I Get To Heaven'

I use about two parts Polar Ginger Ale with one part Vodka and I must say it's surprisingly smooth.

If I'm having tequila, it's usually mixed with orange juice or grapefruit juice.

Enjoy responsibly!
