Drinking neat sounds good, what have you mixed with?

Ice...

But I'm thinking of trying this:

1.5 oz aged rum
.75 oz dry vermouth
.25 oz orange liqueur
.5 tsp grenadine
2 dashes bitters

Stir with ice, serve on the rocks with a twist of lemon

Also, I'm very jealous of san fran. The phoenix area really has nothing as far as culture.
I don't remember, but all I know is how to find the place. It's in Crystal City, VA just outside of DC by the Reagan airport.

Sounds good as well... a bit heavy on the brandy and Cointreau though...

As a citrus lover, I probably couldn't get enough of the Cointreau, but could easily back up on the brandy.
