		<description><![CDATA[<p>To show off one of my current fave cocktails (and, perhaps, to redeem myself for the bruising of the booze), I put together a Gin Savoy (see comments on vodka below; using gin adds a bit of botanical complexity to the already interesting flavour profile of this libation – brought to my attention by bartender Torrie Howlett at @avenuebistro , and later modified with the assistance of bartender Freddy at that same fine dining &#38; drinking venue in Comox). ... Note: @triaculinary is the twitter handle for Kathy Jerritt at Tria Culinary in the Comox Valley . @bluemoonwinery is the twitter handle for George and Marla of Blue Moon Winery and Natures Way Farms (also in the Comox Valley). @islandFEAST is the twitter handle for Karma Brophy (she's doing cool food stuff out of Nanaimo ).</p>
