Summary
Special Guest Alex Pavlovic joins our ruffians to discuss the Harrison Bader signing, the Kai Wei Teng trade, and the otherwise underwhelming off season for the San Francisco Giants. On the cocktail side of things, today Ben is drinking an Astral Plane while Matthew is drinking El Primo. Recipes below. Alex is eschewing a cocktail this time around, but his recipe from his last time on the show is also listed below. Astral Plane 2 oz Gin 1/2 oz Elderflower liqueur 1/2 oz Creme de Violette 3/4 oz Lemon juice 1 tsp Edible glitter bitters Combine gin, elderflower liqueur, creme de violette and glitter bitters in a shaker with ice.
