Actual drink — Sloe Gin Fizz Echhh! tastes like spoiled Hawaiian Punch. ☹ How can anybody tolerate it? I’ve mixed some off combinations, but nothing that topped that! ---

Sambuca and soy sauce. Though the night we got hammered on 4th of July one year and had a contest to see who could eat the most raw eggs (cracked straight into the mouth) followed by a shot of cheap scotch was a close second.

One time all I had was milk and vodka. It tasted pretty bitter, until I had an idea to add honey to it and call it a “Promised Land”, although the alcohol would be better replaced by some fig-based liquor. ---
