Tony Vitello Crashes Out as Giants Achieve Mediocrity (for a Series)

Oh, and they lost for the 81st time. The brothers react to the Arizona series: Roup is wildly effective, Tony gets thrown out for not arguing(?), Merrill Kelly does the Merrill Kelly thing, and the young guys play a great game. Then they discuss the Giants securing a fifth consecutive non-winning season.

On the cocktail side of things, today Matthew is drinking a Jolene while Ben is drinking a Call Me Crazy. Recipes below.

Jolene

  • 2 oz Thyme-infused Gin
  • 3/4 oz Lemon Juice
  • 3/4 oz 1:1 honey syrup
  • 4 Dashes Peach Bitters
  • 2 drops 20% saline solution
  • Tiny pinch of edible gold cocktail glitter (optional)
  • Shake all ingredients with ice. Strain into a rocks glass with ice. Garnish with a thyme sprig or a lemon wheel.

Call Me Crazy
