Spirited Away

I always felt that the main colour of Spirited Away's palette was green; Chihiro's sweater stripes, the bath water, the ocean, etc. so I wanted to create something that reflected (heh) this, but also provided a flavour that changed akin to the way things morph and twist during the film. Clementine juice is sweeter than orange and less acidic than its cousin, so the combination of pineapple and lime is mellowed out, and the Tabasco adds a nice heat at the end which makes give this drink an excellent evolution.

1.5oz/45ml Reposado Tequila

0.5oz/15ml Clementine Juice

0.5oz/15ml Blue Curacao

0.5oz/15ml Pineapple Juice

0.5oz/15ml Lime Juice

0.5oz/15ml Agave Syrup

A few dashes of Tabasco (adjust to your taste)

Add all the ingredients to a shaker and shake with ice until chilled. Double strain into a rocks or old fashioned glass and serve straight up with no garnish; the green hue is all it needs.

Screen Time

I grew up in the 1980s and pretty much spent a lot of my free time playing video games. I was often told by my parents to go outside when it was sunny since I kept staying in my room with the curtains closed.

If I had children in this day and age, I'm pretty sure they would be glued to tablets, phones, and computer screens day in and day out. I would be the epitome of a bad parent!

It's one of the reasons I've avoided having any; knowing I wouldn't be able to be responsible for another person.
