Sounds yummy! 😁
You're definitely a top candidate for trying it :lol:

I've been trying to kill off a bottle of brandy and I had the same cocktail with brandy the other day. It was quite good.

Interesting. It's been a couple of decades since I've had brandy so I couldn't even recall the taste to know if it's in my wheelhouse. I really dislike scotch, and a buddy of mine left a bottle with a couple slugs left in it about a year ago so last weekend I polished it off with a ginger ale assist.

I'm thinking, other than Elvis's love child in Georgia, we all look something like this guy... At least on the inside, even Elvis Jr.
