New recipe, September 30, 2012

We had a spectacular day driving through the Colorado mountains--the aspen groves are spectacular, especially along Kebler Pass. Since we are traveling, we ate at Justice Snow's in Aspen (delicious!). The new recipe is a cocktail, the Blueberry Thrill from the June 2011 Cooking Light. A pleasant drink--we give this a 3.  Our issues--first, we made the syrup with stevia rather than sugar.  Stevia is a good low calorie sweetener, but in this form it has enough of its own flavor to detract.  Second, a little of a bitter would make this much more interesting. It will be interesting to try again with a sugar syrup and a bitter!
