It is now 3 months until I am fully employed by the US Navy. Exciting, and sobering all at once. I better start practicing my math and science now. Transitioning from a very liberal arts concentration (economics and philosophy) to a purely engineering one (nuclear propulsion) might be difficult all at once.
I was thinking of a drink to share, and the only one I can think of is my Waco-famous concoction known as the Parkerita by its adoring fans, because of it's margarita simulating flavor. The best part is that there is a lot more liquor, and really no need for salt. The weak that drink it call it Death. The strong call it Delicious. Anyway, here is the recipe:
2 Ounces Bourbon Whiskey (Jack Daniel's, Jim Bean, etc)
1 Ounce Vodka (Absolut, Smirnoff, etc)
1 Ounce Light Rum (Captain Morgan, Bacardi, etc)
1 Ounce Sour (Either lemon juice+1/2teaspoon of sugar, or a store bought sour mix)
Preparation: Pour contents into shaker half filled with ice. Shake well. Pour (don't strain) contents into a highball glass. For shots, strain contents into shot glasses (should make about 4 shots). For large quantities, the ratio is key 2:1:1:1, with whiskey being the predominant ingredient. For a variation, try other dark liquors such as amaretto, dark rum, or bourbon. If you use amaretto, you should call it the Sweet Parkerita. With dark rum, call it the Tropical Parkerita. With bourbon, call it the Kentucky Parkerita. If you want, float an ounce of 151-proof rum (Bacardi 151) at the end and don't use any light rum in your mixing. Light the 151 on fire, then down the Flaming Parkerita quickly (do so at your own risk)!
Cheers

Absolutely brilliant...and of course utterly delicious
that sounds like a good way to not remember an evening. But I will assess it as Parkerita > Jungle Juice
