Jynn sent me some DIY stuffs quite a while back and I sampled couple of them then and wrote her back to tell her how wonderful they were. WEll this morning I sampled blackberry brandy, cherry limeade, and blackberry lemonade...........The Black berry lemonade is sweet and sour; goes down sweet and the aftertaste is sour, beautifully lemonade with that hint of blackberry. It is like a cool breeze in the evening, on the porch; after a really hot day with a glass of lemonade watching the sunset. IMPO.
The Cherry limeade is very close to what I was looking for, when I made mine, have to figure out what mine is missing. It's like driving to Sonic after working all day, getting there at 3:50 in the afternoon and getting a Route 44 for less than a buck............(okay that was 6 years ago)......but it reminds me of home in the SW. Taking that first sip that cools you off almost immediately, feel the sour limeade going down the throat and on exhale taste the sweet taste of maraschino cherry.
The Blackberry Brandy is sweet and subtle, makes me want to go get some blackberry brandy and drink some......I was really skeptical about this at first, because I have tasted Jules' also and NOT surprisingly it was also very good. Jenn's is somewhat sweeter than Jules's and I like it just as much as I like Jules'. Jules' is good for an after dinner vape, It's excellent to wash down a rather heavy meal. It makes me not want dessert, which is why I like it so much. Jynn's on the hand, is good if I am wanting a sweet alcoholic drink. Since, I don't drink much anymore (because of the medication I am on), it really helps me get through the wanting phase and it's sweet also, making it even better. MY take on both of these BBB is they are both excellent, both have the flavor I want at seperate times in my day. They both go great with seperate things and I love them both. Sorry to put these two together, not comparing people, just the brews.
Thank you Jynn and LBUG for honoring me with these samples.
