My Interests

Soulglue, soulfood, pretty much anything with "Soul" in it.

I'd like to meet:

Al Bowlly and Anna Q Nilsson.NegroniThe Negroni cocktail is made of 1 part gin, 1 part vermouth, and 1 part bitter. Personally I prefer a twist of orange zest added to mine after its been stirred.According to the most popular origin story, the Negroni was invented in Florence, Italy in 1919, at Caffè Casoni. It was named for Count Camillo Negroni, the man who invented it by asking a bartender (Fosco Scarselli) to add gin to the Americano, his favorite drink. The word Negroni does not appear in English cocktail guides before 1947.

Angsterity
