Welcome to Episode Eight!

Today we are talking about the mysterious death of Eazy-E.  Eazy-E is considered the Godfather of Gangsta Rap.  Raw and kind of crazy, Eazy successfully launched the gut-punching rap group N.W.A.  In March 1995, Eazy died from AIDS-induced pneumonia. After his death, many would question his diagnosis, and those who didn't question the diagnosis questioned how he contracted the virus.   

The poison in this episode is a Lavender Gin Gimlet....if you want to drink.  You will need lavender syrup or simple syrup, lavender bitters, gin,  and lime juice.  Fill a mixing glass with ice and shake until chilled. Pour and add soda water or your favorite tonic. I always prefer Fevertree Elderflower or Premium Indian Tonic. Enjoy!
