Sugar, Thank you this is a keeper! If people get tired of the drinks we can share off the list. Like all you have sent. I have that bartender friend that I wrote in Florda and one in New Mexico.

You can also buy (in US) "short shot" glasses or "pony shots" which are 1 ounce. Pony shots are usually used with martinis, manhattans, and rob roys. If we could look into each other's hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.
