Five parts Malort, one part surströmming brine, with a hákarl garnish and a squeeze of lemon. I call it a Viking funeral, because one sip and you’ll want to be pushed out to sea in a burning dinghy. ---

Lead-acetate wine. A lot of people think it tastes sweet at first, but it’s all artificial, it’s cheap, and not only will it get you drunk, it’ll cause brain damage in the long term. ---

HPD is not meant to be Spanish, is it? Would be an apt description for this year. Like hijo de puta. Spoilered to protect the sensitivities of those who still think that cursing is worse than the reason for cursing ---

It would be a Sourtoe Cocktail, which is whiskey with an actual mummified human toe in it. In other words, it’s hard to believe any of it is real, but it is, and you wonder what kind of stupidity got us into this. ---
