The are no guarnatees that this is accurate, so email me with a sob story about how you got a DUI. Just don’t Drink and Drive. Play with this at home.

Cocktail Questions - Flasks

Wednesday, August 2nd, 2006

Q: Hi barkeep. I have question. What is your opinion of hip flasks? I just got a 9 oz one for a present and I was wondering if a flask keeps alcohol cold? If not what is a good alcohol (rum, rye, vodka, brandy) that tastes good when it is warm? Should I always fill the flask to the top or just the amount i need?

A: I am a big fan of flasks. Portable booze is a great thing. Just make sure of the local laws for public consumption before you start drinking. I like to take a flask of whiskey when I take the train into SF for the evening. It makes for a great primer. As for keeping liquor cold, they don’t. Maybe the high tech versions, but your basic metal flask won’t keep anything cold. I usually take whiskey as I like it the best warm, brandy is good too. If you want a cold drink, grab a cold soda or juice at a store and add your booze to it. Works every time.

I always fill my flask full, that way you have a few drinks for everyone. You can alway drink the rest later. Just don’t leave liqour in a metal flask for more than 3 days. The alcohol wil ruin the flask.

Not just for kids. My friend swears that Pediasure is the best hangover helper around. Makes sense, this stuff is specially formulated to give kids a ton of nutrients in one bottle. What could be better after a night of drinking, if it is good for kids it’s gotta be good for your sorry drunk ass self.

Hangover Helper - Grape Juice

Monday, August 29th, 2005

I usually drink a welchs grape juice first think in the morning..the
philosphy behind that is..alcohol is made up of primarily sugar and
when you drink your sugar level rises and causes at times a person to
become drunk. The next morning your body takes a sugar dump and thats
where the headache comes in. By drinking the grape juice..you bring
your sugar level back to where it was the night before without the
after effects.

Works for me!! Thanks Babs
