I know it kind of makes me seem like an alchie to be posting about a "new favorite drink," but this is too good to keep to myself. I'm not much of a liqour guy - I like me some beer. But one of my friends in Dallas introduced me to a wonderful concoction called a French Connection. It's cognac (Hennessey, in my case) mixed with amaretto (Grand Marnier), with a couple ice cubes to cool it off. It's kind of a fru-fru drink, I know. But it's really good, and a couple of them will give you a nice buzz for the rest of the night.
