Happy Friday! 🥃
Here we are! Issue #10! Double digits! It was a new job week for me, but I was able to indulge in a little clear ice at the regular happy hour, so all is right with the world.
I'm especially excited about this weekend because I have my first actual clear ice gig! I'm co-running a clear ice master class and Tequila tasting at a dinner party! The cooler is prepped. The tools are loaded. The Tequila is selected.
But enough about Tequila. This is a clear ice newsletter!
Ok, let's get into it!
