In the right mood, I would recomend it, and wish you the most optomistic of evenings.

Do you put the tea bag directly in the glass of Bourbon?

Do you warm it up and let it steap?

No. You drink just less than your fill (which is in fact your fill). Then have a cup of tea.

Okay. I can dig it. I like bourbon and Earl Gray tea.

Then happy new year to ya. And a merry next Christmas as well.

Though I must admit I've followed just enough... with a Manhattan, and a cup of tastless white tea chaser.

How about Old Crow and one of those tea bags you get with Chinese food?

As I've recomended before, avoid the Old Crow.

As of this AM I am back to coffee and stoking the fire.

I have several bad memories involving Old Crow from my high school days. Actually the memories are pretty non-existent, I just remember puking all night, feeling like crap the next morning and seeing an empty bottle of Old Crow. My buddy's father always had 3 or 4 bottles kicking around the booze cabinet. It took me a long time before I could even smell bourbon or whisky after that.

I used to be a Jack Daniel's drinker until I discovered Maker's Mark, which is the smoothest drinking bourbon whisky I have ever enjoyed.

I've even resorted to buying the larger bottles at Costco.

I got into the whiskey bag a little over the holidays. Dickel ten year old. Actually followed by tea on more than one occasion, albeit not your fancy british stuff, but green ceylon with pomegranite seeds.

Maker's Mark is the stuff. Too many cocktail parties during the season to keep it around the house. I just had a bottle of Dickel around because my dad was in town and we drink bourbon and eat raw oysters every xmas. If I don't keep it around, I don't drink it
