I love White Russians, personally. Get some decent Vodka (Chopin works and is a favorite of mine), Kahlua, and milk or cream (I like Whole Milk, anything heavier and you're just chugging milkfat, anything lighter and it's really watery) and mix however much you want. I tend to do like 2:1:1 Vodka:Kahlua:Milk but I generally like my drinks idiotically strong, and 1:1:2 V:K:M is probably going to be a lot more palatable for most people.

Random question - the thread blew up by about 20 pages over the course of a couple days while I was on the road. Anything noteworthy (ie stuff I should go read) happen in the past few days while I was living under a rock?

Try using a Honey Vanilla Vodka in your White Russians. 375ml 100 proof Vodka to 6oz mesquite honey, and a vanilla bean. Put all of those in a mason jar, let it sit for three weeks, and shake it once each day. At the end of that time, strain it through a wire mesh, and then add it to your beverages, or just drink it straight. It's cheaper than buying Stoli Hunni, adds a note of mesquite smoke, and those lovely vanilla undertones, and is potent enough to make arguing with Fishmech seem like a good idea.

I assume everyone is drinking Blanton's as their sipping bourbon of choice because it's so drat smooth.

Also supporting whoever suggested Lagavulin 16yr.
I'm sipping on Bookers. It helps ease the pain.

Oh my sweet christ that sounds wonderful

Definitely going to put some of that together as soon as I get home, in a month I leave for a summer job in a town I loving hate because it's a podunk shithole with nothing to do, and drinking myself into a stupor with deilicious Honey Vanilla Vodka sounds great.



Oh, other booze suggestion - Rum and Rootbeer, using Kraken Rum for your rum. Stuff's not super expensive and the vanilla flavoring makes it go fantastically well with Rootbeer.

Make sure you slit the vanilla bean lengthwise from end to end before adding it, or it won't infuse properly.

But if you want a sugar cane based liquor that hates you as much as you hate US politics I recommend cachaça, the moonshine of rum.

Cachaça is the primary liquor in a Caipirinha, and there is nothing hateful about that delightful cocktail.

Considering which side is being antagonistic and instigating these events if I were a betting person I would put my money on an off-duty officer or federal employee with a personal concealed weapon firing in perceived self-defense.

I really, really hope I'm just missing the irony on this post, and that if you had to pick which one of the two groups would shoot first, the ones allegedly driving up to people and aiming firearms at them are gonna be the likely triggermen.
