I am a wine drinker. I rarely--if ever-- order mixed drinks. When I go out for dinner I either order a glass of Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc. I only deviate from these two choices when I see a sparkling wine on the menu. Every so often when I see a sparkling wine served by the glass, I’ll change my usual habit and go for that.
During dinner last week with friends, I was about to order my usual glass of wine when my friend said, “Try the cucumber margarita. It’s their specialty.” A cucumber margarita is as far from my comfort zone as I can get but I trusted my friend. And on that hot hot night, it surprisingly sounded like a great choice. I shocked myself and my husband by ordering it.
My friend was right. The cucumber margarita was delicious and a perfect drink for a hot summer night. In fact, it was so good, I ordered a second.
Stepping way out of my comfort zone and trying something new, definitely added to my dining experience. What do you drink? Do you switch it up?
