Yeah.

Dictionary.com tells me there are 56 herbs, fruits, and spices involved in Jagermeister. Funny that it doesn't mention alcohol, 'cause that's what I tasted. But wow was it good.

Lotesse · 08-13-2005, 11:50 PM

You like the way it TASTES, Bombadillo? 'Cause ti ME it tastes like Nyquil cough medicine, but to each his own I guess. Bleah, can't STAND the taste of Jaeger! But Goldmeister is quite yummy, you know, the stuff with the real gold flakes floating in the bottom of the bottle? Its great from the freezer, and downed as a shot. And it won't impart that distracting narcotic-like effect, like Jaeger does.

Bombadillo · 08-14-2005, 12:05 AM

Yeah! I've never had Nyquil before, but I wouldn't be surprized. It did taste pretty medicinal. It probably has some herbal curative in it or something.

But then again I know my sense of taste is abnormal. I take my coffee black, for example. But knowing what taste to expect makes a huge impact on whether or not you like something's taste.

I never even saw Goldmeister before, but it sounds dangerous, not to mention... it's probably expensive. Does gold actually affect the taste, and if not, what kind of arrogant undeserving aristocrat thought of it?

Come to think of it, ingesting certain metals can lead to deafness. (Beethoven's deafness is thought to come from his drinking out of lead mugs for his whole life.) But I'm not sure if that applies to gold.

Yeah, it's pretty pricey. The gold has nothing to do with the taste, unless there's some taste to gold that I've missed before

. I thing the Germans invented it. Oh, by the way, I spelled it totally wrong - It's Goldschlager, not Goldmeister. And I swear I'm not drinking right now!

***Rían*** · 08-14-2005, 12:56 AM

I am CRAVING a hot chai from Starbucks - absolutely CRAVING - and I can't go get one now

I guess I'll have a virtual one here!

Lotesse · 08-14-2005, 01:00 AM

Hot chai sounds interesting, I mean I've only ever had it iced. Surely there's some chai in the Teacup pantry -EVERYthing yummy that could exist in the world is here!

katya · 08-14-2005, 01:00 AM

Hey, that sounds pretty tasty!

I think I'll have a...bloody mary. No, actually just watching that episode of Cowboy Bebop. I think I'd have a nutrition drink. I'm alone for a few days with my brother and I've already spent all the money on gas. I'm going to get malnutritioned.

Lotesse · 08-14-2005, 01:11 AM

Bloody marys can be nutritious, can't they? Use that V8 with all the vegetable vitamins in it. That counts, doesn't it?

katya · 08-14-2005, 01:13 AM

Ugh, I hate tomato juice. You know what I did like though? Carrot juice mixed half and half with V8 splash.

Lotesse · 08-14-2005, 01:24 AM

That sounds so very Californian, carrot juce & V8 bloody mary! Why not add wheatgrass juice, too!

Neo Rich Hippie kinda cocktail!

katya · 08-14-2005, 01:26 AM

ah! no! I guess it kind of is though... i discoverd the combonation when I was experimenting with a Taoist diet for a week. I really liked it but it's too hard to keep up.

It's very good iced, but even better (IMHO) hot! Give it a try sometime, if you can.

***Rían*** · 08-14-2005, 01:36 AM

(edit - grr -double post!)

Lotesse · 08-14-2005, 01:37 AM

If it came non-caffeinated, I'd love a mug 'o that right about now to have before bed, I'm so sleepy... gonna watch Alias with my boyfriend & go to bed. 'Night, all!

katya · 08-14-2005, 01:39 AM

Night, Lotesse.

I like my chai hot too. I've never tried it iced though.

No, it's loaded with caffeine!

Late at night, I don't dare get it, or it keeps me up for hours

g'nite

Lotesse · 08-14-2005, 08:57 PM

'Afternoon, all! Just thought I'd pop in for some sushi and Asahi. It's turning into a really pretty Sunday afternoon, perfect weather for cool sushi...

**Nurvingiel** · 08-16-2005, 05:15 AM

Ah yes, I love sushi and Asahi! *serves up a nice cold Asahi, B.C. rolls, spicy tuna rolls, and salmon nigiri, and a bowl of miso soup*

I added that complementary miso soup for you. I always start with a bowl of that excellent soup before sushi eating, but if you don't like miso soup, I'll have it.

Spock · 08-16-2005, 11:28 AM

That's just what we had for dinner (out) on Saturday. What a fantastic meal with tempura ice cream for desert....yum.

Lotesse · 08-16-2005, 01:55 PM

Spock, you guys, have you ever tried green tea ice cream? This one japanese restaurant me & my ex used to constantly frequent, they served the best home-made green tea ice cream I've ever come across. And Nurvi, bring it on with the miso soup! I'm a miso soup lover par exemplar; in fact I'd like to learn how to make it for myself at home.
