A Few of My Favorite Things

These are a few of my favorite things:
Sangria: Ahhh, all the tell tale signs are there. Crooked smile, enibri-eye, a mouth stained with purple teeth. You've been drinking wine my friend. But wait, you weren't drinking just any kind of wine. You were done in by Sangria. Usually Red Wine mixed with, Brandy, Triple Sec, fruit juice, cut up fruit and maybe a little 7up or Sprite. Served with ice it's the best thing you've ever tasted on a summer day. Head on down to the Ironbound in Newark for the best of the best.  Be careful when induldging though, this stuff goes down like water but has mean after effects.

Malt Liquor: Beer that's cheap, available in 40oz bottles and strong enough to be called liquor, count me in. The Forty has a bad rep but it does get the job done like no other.  Anyone who doesn't appreciate the true value or "Bang for the Buck" factor that a 40 holds, doesn't know good from bad. Getting drunk is good, judging is bad. Drink em' up (or down, whatever you prefer).

Whiskey: If you could distill heaven, I believe it would taste like Jameson Gold Reserve Whiskey.  Shots, strait, sour or on the rocks, I want it all.  Irish or Bourbon it doesn’t matter because they’re both great(Canadien Whiskey doesn’t count and shouldn’t even be called Whiskey).  I've read about how Jack Daniel's Whiskey is less proof (80%) then it was ten years ago (86%), and less then the 90 proof Jack used to distill himself, but still claims that it's the same formula (A corporate spokesman for the company claimed customers preferred the 80 proof), so that makes me want it less then ever (never enjoyed the taste).
Beer: The easiest and most plentiful thing to drink.  From Red Dog to Rouge, Palm to Piel’s, Miller to Magic Hat you can find a beer for your taste buds. Beer is that perfect comfort drink to aid us in thirst between shots, mixers, and cocktails as we stumble through our evening.  Whether it’s at 2AM or 2PM it’s always tasty.  Plus the beer industry has been employing Americans since the 1600s so be patriotic and buy a beer.
