Andy’s drinkfrom an essay
Penicillin
- 2 oz blended Scotch
- ¾ oz fresh lemon juice
- ¾ oz honey-ginger syrup
- ¼ oz Islay single malt, floated
Shake the first three, strain over a big cube, float the Islay. Candied ginger.
Why this one
Sam Ross’s two-layer classic, from the endnote to my essay Production Memory. The smoke is a quarter-ounce Islay float: you nose it first, and the body follows behind it.
What it does today
Ask like you’d ask a friend behind the bar.

Every drink cites the rule or source behind it.
My shelf
Snap your bottles, see what you can make tonight.
It learns your taste
Rate what you made; next day it asks once how it went.
Every pour is labeled
You always know whose drink it is.
AI helps match and explain. The drinks and the rules are mine, and each one carries one of four labels.
- Andy’s
- My own spec, the way I make it at home.
- Canon
- A classic I adapted, with the house rule cited.
- With Codee
- My own drink, developed with Codee, the GPT bartender I built.
- Improv
- Nothing in the catalog fit, so it improvised — and says so.
In testing
Where it’s headed
- Read a bar menu: snap a bar’s drink list and see its drinks ranked by how much you’d like them.
- What you had out: note a drink you ordered at a bar, and the bar learns your taste from it.
- Both are in testing with a few beta members. Turning what you loved out into something to make at home comes next.
