Thanks, Rick. The basil was subtle, which is how I wanted it to be. I didn’t want anything–basil, peppers, clam, beer, seasoning–to overpower the tomato.

Michael,

Sounds delicious. And nice picture! How prominent was the basil flavor?

Worcestershire sauce has anchovies in it, so you added a little extra seafood to your cocktail.

I’m trying to think of a Memphis cocktail… Hurricanes and mint juleps are semi-regional favorites, but I find myself wondering about a twist on the White Russian made with buttermilk, moonshine, and crumbled cornbread.

We were just in your fair city this weekend and would have loved to stop by to help you taste test – looks like a great drink! (The lime is regionally appropriate b/c didn’t those whaling ships have to carry limes to keep scurvy away?)
