    First of all, thank you all so much for coming out and huddling together in a dark bar on a beautiful Sunday afternoon with us. I hope you enjoyed the cocktails and the company as much as we enjoyed making and talking about them.

    I'm starting this discussion as a place for us to post our recipes from the event, since someone from the Beaverton Farmers' Market table (hi, guys!) asked if we could post our recipes online.

    I only have the first two recipes in my head, but with some luck and a little bit of time we can coax the others to post their recipes here.

    Sidecar

    2 oz Remy-Martin VSOP cognac
    1 oz Cointreau
    1 oz fresh lemon juice

    Shake ingredients vigorously over ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Sugared rim is optional, but the classic recipe does call for a lemon twist.

    Margarita #1

    2 oz Herradura silver tequila
    1 oz Cointreau
    1 oz fresh lime juice

    Shake ingredients vigorously over ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Salted rim is optional, but as Neil pointed out, the salt can dull the tastebuds and is not a necessary addition to a cocktail made with good-quallity tequila.

    Having made Matt's Old Fashioneds I think I can replicate the recipe

    Rye Old Fashioned

    2oz Rye Whiskey (We used Sazerac 6 yr)
    1/4 oz simple syrup
    2 dashes Angostura Bitters

    Aviation Gin Old Fashioned

    2 oz Aviation Gin (no substitutes please)
    1/4 oz simple syrup
    1 dash Regan's Orange Bitters
    1 dash Peychaud's Bitters

    Edited for formatting.

    I also really enjoy a More spirit driven Daiquiri from David Embury

    2 oz Rum

    1/2 oz Lime

    1/4 oz simple

    (exchange the simple for Grand Marnier, or Grenadine,or St. Germains' Elderflower Liqueur. For Variety)

    Hemingway Daiquiri

    2 oz Rum

    1 oz Fresh Lime

    1/2 oz Maraschino Liqueur

    1/4 oz Grapefruit Juice

    Also Just wanted to add my appreciated for all the heads that came together today to share their passion and knowledge. I think everyone had a great time and everyone learned something.
