You were talking to Sean, weren't you? Anyhow, I did become
fond of the Doctor when I lived in Texas - but when I came to
Massachusetts, it wasn't quite as good anymore.

 DS> I buy it very occasionally as a treat.

The caffeine content is what gets me the most.

It is pleasant, especially if you're Italian.

 DS> Let me know next time you're in Providence, we'll get together.
 
I'll do that. Usually I'm closer to the water, i.e. Jamestown,
but Providence is an intermediate stop; and furthermore, it's
under an hour by RIPTA, which isn't quite so horrible as people
claim it is. I mean, except for rush hour, the buses are
pleasantly uncrowded and run within five minutes of on time,
and given that most of the clientele are the poor and marginal
members of society, the service's mere existence is a good thing.

Rhode Island Ice Coffee
cat: booze
servings: 1

1 oz Kahlua
1 oz vodka
1/2 oz brandy
2 oz cream

(Looks to me like a more balanced version of a Kahlua Sombrero)

Shake; serve in lowball glass over ice.
