Thanks, I'll try the Distilled to start and Aurora is on the Labor Day list.
I missed the label discussion. My favorite is taking file labels, do not peel it off the backing, write the recipe name, date and mg, then wrap it with scotch tape, leaving a little tab to take it off later. When I'm ready to clean and reuse the bottle, the label comes off easily. I tried dissolvable labels like those for canning, that wasn't so good if juice dripped or my hands were damp! oops LOL.
I tried it standalone which I try to do with new flavors. Didn't seem to have any taste at all, though I may not have steeped it much. It added a little interest to vanilla. That's all I've done with it so far. I didn't experiment with it other than that because I was disappointed with it. Should probably have persevered.
Everytime I add marzipan to a juice it gives an off note. Thought I might try adding another .5% since going lower didn't help. I'll try it with vanilla and see if that rounds it out for me.
Oh yeah, that sounds good. You said pineapple though!
ABC is good in tobaccos. It's been good in anything i've used it in actually.

Cranberry Gin on the Rocks mixed. If I get nothing else done today I'll be happy. I've been waiting to try this new Gin

Wish I could have slept in on a Sat morning but that didn't happen. At least I got some mixing done.
Sooooo any plans for today? Hubs has his CT scan early afternoon so I'm not going to be real productive....LOL. Still have several testers I really need to get back to.Don't know why I hate them so much. Just tedious I guess.
While I've been busy with other stuff my mixes have been steeping and I have a half dozen close enough to 30 days to try anytime.

I find tester tasting tedious as well Fran. I take them to work where I'm stuck with them for juice. Forces me to take more than a couple of hits so I do get a better idea how I would use them. This weekend it's butter pecan, caramel butter, pralines cream, and salted caramel.
I tried to sleep in this morning too but it was not to be.
I didn't get my Inawera package this week but I still have lots of new flavors here to mess around with. I'm going to mix that PB and bourbon recipe today.
I'm liking the TFA DX Peanut Peanut a lot.Might go ahead and mix those other two PB recipes I have if I can find them now.I tried to sleep in this morning too but it was not to be.
Hope your INW order shows up soon.
Determined to try at least one I have INW Rhubarb for it's last taste test. It's well over a month old now.
Yup, DX PB is better than regular PB. One of my long time go to ADV's is TFA DX PB with LOR Banana Cream and some TFA Bavarian Cream. Never get tired of it.
I guess my Inawera order will arrive this coming week. It is kinda taking a long time but I did sort of push it though, ordered 18 bottles and I never usually order more than 10 or 11. It may be being held by customs for further inspection which means I will probably get hit with having to pay taxes on it. Doesn't happen often but when it does.... it pisses me off. I see it as a form of punishment here in Canada for buying stuff out of the country.
