“This is delicious!” said Sarah, taking a sip of her Greenhorn cocktail.

“I know, right?” said her friend, Michael. “I’ve never had anything like it before.”

They were sitting at a bar in Houston, Texas, enjoying a night out. They had both just started new jobs, and they were celebrating.

The Greenhorn cocktail is a combination of silver tequila, Midori melon liqueur, and Suze gentian liqueur. It’s a sweet and tart drink with a hint of bitterness.

“It’s kind of like a margarita, but with a twist,” said Sarah.

“Yeah, it’s definitely different,” said Michael. “But I like it.”

They continued to talk and drink, and soon they were laughing and having a great time.

“This is the best night ever,” said Sarah.

“I know, right?” said Michael. “I’m so glad we came here.”

They finished their cocktails and ordered another round. As they were drinking, they talked about their new jobs and their plans for the future.

“I’m so excited to start this new chapter in my life,” said Sarah.

“Me too,” said Michael. “I think we’re going to do great things.”

They clinked their glasses together and toasted to their future.

They stayed at the bar for a few more hours, and by the time they left, they were both feeling pretty tipsy. But they didn’t care. They had had a great night, and they were both looking forward to the future.
