Sip On A Jack O'Lantern


Halloween is right around the corner and pumpkins are on our mind! What better way to celebrate our pumpkin craze than by sipping a drink with a jack o'lantern at The Empire Hotel's Lobby Bar. What the bar has created is a signature cocktail made up of a wicked amount of whiskey, absinthe, orange bitters, and sugar cubes, sweetening up your drink just like Halloween candy!

See you at Hollyween!

SIP ON A JACK O'LANTERN INGREDIENTS:
-2 ounces Jack Daniels
-2 Cubes of sugar
-2 Dashes of orange bitters
-1/2 Ounce of Lucid Absinthe

PREPARATION:
-Coat inner glass with absinthe and pour out
-Add Jack Daniels, orange bitters, sugar and ice.
-Shake well and strain over more ice.

Jack Daniels Toast The Troops Bracelet

Just won this off Ebay.  Gotta say I love it.  It's a silicone bracelet the words"Jack Daniels" and "Toast The Troops" stamped in it.  There are "USO' label printed on it, along with "Old No. 7".  On the inside is "www.jackdaniels.com" printed on it.  Also got a postcard that you could mail to someone in the military.  Not very happy the seler did not put it in an envelope that would not bend so easy.  The card got kind of wrinkled, but it's still very nice!

Here is what I take my lunch in everyday to work!

Found this cooler at a goodwill not to long ago for $2.99.  Do I have a problem?

Motley Crue Pics with Jack Daniels

So after the GNR pics, I thought I know I have seen Motley Crue with bottles of Jack Daniels before.  Here is what I could find.
This is one of favorite cd covers of all time!

Motley circa 84/85, with Tommy Lee holding a bottle of Jack.

Motley at the Jack Daniels warehouse. 

Nikki Sixx and ? with a bottle of Jack. 

A quote from Nikki: 
 

Vince Neil and Nikki Sixx with a bottle of Jack 

Sixx with Jack & Roses. 

And it's not a bottle, but Vince Neil with a Jack Daniels shirt. 

A Couple Of Guns N Roses Pics with Jack Daniels

I'm so excited I just got a 9th row ticket to see Guns N Roses in Indianapolis, IN on December 8th!  So in honor of this, I am posting a few pics of GNR with Jack Daniels.  And before someone says it...yes I know nobody is left in the band except Axl!

A VERY sexy pic Axl Rose:


Slash with bottle of Jack placed where it should not be!

And finally a couple of bootleg covers.  I think GNR named part of their tour in 1988 "The Jack Daniels Tour".
