    Corn on the cob

    and doing much inspection — just fill up the bag, get the water boiling, and break out the butter and salt. Best prices I saw at the Santa Monica Famers' Market a week or so back was three ears for $2. I guess all of the...

    Laws about selling home made liqueur?

    it. Now I think that bars and restaurants can get away with making their own liqueurs (infusions) because they are merely adding flavor the the alcohol. Since they don’t distill or otherwise mess with the ethanol they are...

    ISO vodka ratings

    . It’s worth going at least once. We usually stay at a B&B so we aren’t driving back to Toronto on ethanol :-)

    What's your opinion - is Vodka strictly defined?

    Ethanol reaches the boiling point at 78.5°C, water at 100°C, so raising the temperature would actually allow other compounds to be carried over. And I see Vodka’s bearing the label “triple distilled” which makes...
