Just Because: The Doris Cocktail

Screen Shot 2016-08-27 at 1.33.44 PM.png

My friend Nancy recently shared a cocktail demo video with me, guessing (correctly) that the featured drink would be just my thing. Gin, bitters, something sweet, a ROSE…?! It’s basically me in cocktail form.

So, could someone please come over and make me a Doris right now? Thank you very much.

Dream if you can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
