So, I was absolutely exhausted last night and did not get a chance to include a Drink of the Day segment in my post. So, instead, you get it a day later. I hope I make it up to you by bringing two awesome cocktails that use grain based spirits. One of which leads to me dedicating this episode to my good gaming buddy Ryan up in Canada. Check out the video for more!
