internet drinking friends
ok, so whilst plowed in this weekend watching entirely too much television and trying not to scrape my eyes out with a grapefruit spoon, i came across this wonderful blog entry from nataliedee. some poor soul asked her for recommendations on vodka mix drinks. and after explaining that she hates booze and only drinks when she's incredibly stressed (like before college lectures), she doled out these jems:
Juice and tequila: Tequila is my favorite kind of booze, and it is really good with juice! I like it with any kind of juice (except cranberry or tomato.) It is rad with lemonaid. Tequila shots are also pretty awesome, if you are wanting to end up under the table.
Framboise with a shot of blueberry vodka: Mmmm! Framboise is raspberry beer. You just get a glass of it and dump a shot of blueberry vodka in it. Fruity and stiff, just how I like my drinks.
Chambord and Champagne: Fancy! Just add a shot or two of Chambord to a glass of champagne. Don't buy a big bottle of champagne unless you are having friends over, cause the shit goes flat, and if you try to clear a bottle yourself, you'll wind up stumbling out the back seat of some Benz, flashing your vagina everywhere. They sell little bottles with just a glass or two in them, they are not as wasteful.
For some reason champagne gets me wrecked pretty fast. Once, I went to some Monet show at some art gallery, and I had two glasses of champagne, and I had to crawl home. I am a lightweight, but that really seemed like great returns for little drinking investment.
Gin and Pineapple Juice: Excellent, and a nice departure from screwdrivers. You can also get little 8 packs of single serving cans of pineapple juice, so you dont have to mess with a big sticky can of the shit in your fridge forever. I am usually not a proponent of single-serving shit, cause it is a lot of packaging, but some things you only buy to make drinks, and you shouldn't really drink 48 ounces of gin and pineapple, or drink every night until you do, capice?
mmmmk, so nataliedee and i would be great drinking buddies. assuming i ever find the motivation to leave the house again.
