Occasionally I’ll put on a suit, get on the metro, and attend a think tank event in DC. They’re always interesting.

Afterwards, of course, it’s time for some whiskey at a nearby tavern.

Here’s a few think tanks in the area. A more comprehensive list can be found on this Wikipedia page.

The Summer Sour

Ingredients 2 oz Weldon Mills Rockfish Whiskey 1 oz lavender syrup 1 oz lemon juice Now I gotta make ‘lavender syrup’? Ugh. Here’s how to do it… Lavender Syrup 1 cup water 1 cup white sugar 1 tablespoon fresh lavender blossoms Combine water, sugar, and lavender blossoms in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let syrup steep for about 30 minutes. Pour syrup into a sterilized glass jar through a mesh strainer to remove blossoms; let cool. .
