Sunday night mixology

Tomorrow is Monday and it's back to the grind. We are still trying to adjust to the time change from France, it was much easier the other way!
Tomorrow I will start to catch up on the posts from our trip. I took over 1400 photos in 11 days, it is hard to limit myself to the highlights.
After 2 weeks of exploring wine, tonight we return to the cocktail and our enjoyment of experimentation.
A combination of a twist on a margarita - slash - daiquiri (traditional style of course) we combine the juice of 1 lime with sliced jalapeño. Muddle the limes and jalapeños and then add a few pieces of ice, 1 ounce of simple syrup, 3 ounces of Patron silver and a 1/4 ounce of Laphroaig (to add just the right hint of smoke). shake it up and pour over some ice - this makes two.
We were a little short on simple syrup, so we added a splash of Grand Marnier to the top, I think it rounded the flavor out nicely!
