Cocktail #45 of 50: The Ritz Old Fashioned

1.5 measures Whisky (we found a top malt made this exceptional)
0.5 measure Grand Marnier
Dash of angostura
Dash lemon juice

Serve in a rocks glass frosted with sugar and with two cherries :-)

Despite a slight fever overnight, I tested negative for Covid and headed out for a Friday adventure to Frinton. Got some essential gift shopping done then walked along the beach to the Naze to meet S. for lunch. Nature is the best healer and I felt so much better after the walk along the sands listening to the waves. 7 miles!
Christmas tree purchased on the way back and in a bucket of water. Christmas wreath on door, mistletoe in the hall. Christmas is under control at last!
