I love that stuff! But I don’t drink it enough. Just once in a while.
I’ve never had it with Coke. I don’t drink soda anymore. However, if you drink a shot straight up, it works pretty quickly to get things going. Chase it with your favorite beverage (non-alcoholic drinks work fine, even water). A little goes a long way.
Fireball is pretty tasty. 😏
I’ve never tried the stuff, and now I’m curious. Mostly bourbon for me. Always said, “I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy”.
It has a cinnamon flavor.........
As long as it’s not too sweet, I’d give it a try. Does it come in glass bottles?
I don’t think much liquor comes in glass any more. All the bottles I find in my yard are plastic............................
Oh, sure. The good stuff does, but you have to buy a larger bottle. “ All the bottles I find in my yard are plastic”. Damn, I hate that. We have about 600 ft. frontage on a rural road, no sidewalks, but steep ditches. Always picking trash out of the ditches and on our lawn. Pigs everywhere. Tequila, Corona and Modesto bottles and cans. Tell you something?
Si.......................
“I’ve never tried the stuff,”
You don’t have to if you remember Red Hots.
It is a fairly decent throat medicine.
LOL, even by itself, IIRC, it is a pretty sweet liquor!
Yes, it is pretty sweet. Carries a punch at 100 proof. We keep a bottle on hand most of the time.
We first discovered it after we could no longer find Jeremiah Weed Bourbon liqueur, also 100 proof. I think they stopped making that, and anyway, I couldn’t find it anymore.
It was commonly found near USAF bases. Fighter pilot lore as I understand it. When we wanted to celebrate something special, we would have a small shot of JW as a toast to whatever the event was.
The candy Red Hots? I used to love those when I was a kid.
Hahahaha...I drink so rarely now-I kind of miss it! It does provide social lubrication when everyone is drinking.
Now, I don’t have the energy for it!
Well, the 106 year old woman still has a nip every evening. Maybe we could learn something from her! (Though, personally, I think genetics has a lot to do with her longevity.) ;)
I can get it in glass bottles where I live (Indiana), if I wanted it.
