I just read a book where a bartender asked a girl if she liked girlie drinks or manly drinks. I realized, I am a total girlie girl drinker. He said girls that drink manly drinks have moxie. I personally think I am a girl with a lot of moxie, so I needed a manly drink that I could order up. Now I know what your thinking, this is not a manly drink, but I am going to disagree…. there is bourbon in it after all!

I came back to bookmark this one before I forget it. I may try one of these later, after the work is done for the day.
I’m not sure what moxie is but I usually prefer girlie cocktails! This one looks worth a try…. especially if it gives me moxie 😉
Don’t worry girlie you got moxie! 🙂 with or without the drink!
