The Twister (Cocktail and Tornado)
Posted on May 22, 2011 | By TheEnabler | Comments Off on The Twister (Cocktail and Tornado)
Well, here in Liquor Locust Land, we had a couple of actual tornadoes in the last couple of days. Very unusual in this part of California. We even had the local Walmart make all their customers shelter in place during the alert. Quite a few almond trees were torn apart, companies closed down, and my kids started piling blankets in the bathtub and telling us what to do if a “torpedo” came around us. For our part, the adults decided to have theme cocktails to calm jittery nerves. We decided on the Twister (A Tornado Cocktail is only for moronic college students who wish to die of alcohol poisoning before the actual tornado can get to them).
Give it a whirl. (wahahahaha)
So, this was the theme cocktail:
2 oz. Vodka
2 oz. Lime Juice
Seven-Up
IcePour ingredients over the ice in a Collins Glass, stir, and enjoy while you are snug in the root cellar waiting out the Twister with your Twister.
Go ahead, the cow is giving it a whirl.

The Liquor Locusts
"The harsh, useful things of the world, from pulling teeth to digging potatoes, are best done by men who are as starkly sober as so many convicts in the death-house, but the lovely and useless things, the charming and exhilarating things, are best done by men with, as the phrase is, a few sheets in the wind." ~H.L. Mencken
The Dangers of Thirst
"Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing." ~Jerome K. Jerome

The Jug of Empire!
"How solemn and beautiful is the thought that the earliest pioneer of civilization, the van-leader of civilization, is never the steamboat, never the railroad, never the newspaper, never the Sabbath-school, never the missionary -- but always whiskey!" ~Mark Twain
