so, it turns out that Walnut does know how to give high-fives and she's quite fun that way. but she only gives them when this neighbour asks for them, and never when i ask her for them. i first thought it was because i was asking her in English (and not Tamil) but it turns out that she just don't like me :blobcatsad:

also, update: IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU READ THE ALT TEXT!!

CHOCOLATE STOUT OLD FASHIONED

3 dashes walnut bitters
½ oz chocolate stout syrup
2 oz Black Blended Rum ❺

Glassware: Old-fashioned
Method: Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass with cracked ice and stir. Strain over a large rock with no garnish.

This is my twist on the original from High Proof Preacher on IG a few days ago. I started out with Sazerac rye (in bg of second pic), but ultimately I settled on a totally different base spirit, black blended rum (pouring pic), since it has toasty dark notes that complement the beer so well. I also did some black walnut bitters, trying to lean away from your typical orange vibe in an OF.

For my stout syrup I used Northern Monk Patrons Projects 43.02 — Dunked Chocolate Digestive Decadent Stout.
