Fun shot, Cany, great way to watch the grass grow.
Grand Marnier with lime juice? I thought lime juice and gin were necessary to get the quinine down. Didn't know Grand Marnier needed lime juice. I like the photo and the idea. Think I'll try it.

Gin? O my heck, no! Lime juice, Grand Marnier, and Tequila (Padron, preferably) in a secret and alchemical mixture. And ice, of course.
If you go ahead and try it, it might be best if you didn't operate heavy equipment --or anything more complicated than a tv remote-- afterwards. Safety first, you know....
Rusty Nails are a 50/50 mix. Think I'll try that mixture with GM and T. Thanks. Do I need lime juice or just a slice of lime on the glass?

There are lots of variations, but basically, we're talking 'Margarita' here, and yes, lime juice is generally requisite. (Pro tip: do NOT immediately discard the squeezed lime! Run its squeezed out interior around the rim of your glass. It provides a medium for the (either Kosher or Sea) salt to grab onto.)
Thangsh for look'n, nd I hope your lawn ish com'nin as good as mine.

What a delicious photo. Did you focus stack to get that dof?
And I know you don't know me, but can I come over?

Yes, the image was made by focus stacking 13 images. Before flattening the layers/blends, it was something like a 3.4 Gb monstrosity. Apart from that, Greg, sure, c'mon over. But bring some limes, ok? I'm all out.

I'm not sure, but maybe the Grand Marnier is adding to the lemony yellow look.
I'll take the Grand Marnier straight up, please. But I'll gladly bring Limes just for your enjoyment.
