Just because

the sambuca is one mean liquer!

...we're an old married couple, that doesn't mean we don't know how to ..

1) enjoy ourselves

2) go pubbing

3) bop our heads to the latest hits

4) go out without our 3.5yo

5) have some "adult" fun ;-)

6) enjoy getting sparkly keychains from perfect strangers

We decided to leave the kid with her favourite aunty Ammu last evening and went out

It was fun, spontaneous and totally on the fly

We had so much fun that we felt guilty

But it was very much needed

I had a shot called Sambuca, it was some sort of liquer, the bartender prepared it and signed off with 2 drops of tabasco in it .. it smelt like star anise, tasted sweet, but didn't actually go down well once i downed it, that's a first and a last ..

Xtra info about the Sambuca : It is an Italian liqueur flavored with green anise, star anise and elder. Romana Sambuca is similar in flavor to anisette, Like absinthe, pastis, ouzo and other anise-flavored spirits, it turns milky white when water or ice is added to it. (The cloudy appearance is the result of all those essential oils emulsifying) .. But we had it neat .. and after about 20 mins it was like "ka-pow" ..thank God I didn't pass out or it would have been pretty embarassing, eh.

I'll stick to my fave combo of jd with coke or ribena, yes peeps i drink my jd with ribena .. you oughta give it a try .. best i prepare it though .. coz it's a yummy one!
