ORIGINAL — Fog Punch

November 26, 2011 (Day 242) — Fog Punch

Oh God. You were able to keep everything at bay. The Holiday jingles. The guy dressed like Santa who smells suspiciously like urine and chicken bouillon. But it’s now two days after Thanksgiving. If it was annoying before, it’s almost unbearable now. Two words that make this season even worse: Justin Bieber.

No picture necessary. Seriously. I’m not that mean.

See! There are still some good things about the season!

You’re hearing the jingle. Your kids are nagging you for the newest piece of shit toy. Pretend you’re somewhere else. Perhaps somewhere tropical. Even if you can’t afford the jaunt, we’re here to help you at least think you may be.

And this will give you at least some sort of fog to have to sort through. You’ll at least THINK it’s the tropics, and anymore what you think is all that counts, right?

Fog Punch

• 2 oz Burnett’s Pineapple Vodka
• 2 oz Cruzan Strawberry Rum
• 2 oz orange juice
• 2 oz cranberry juice
• Tonic water to top

Combine all the ingredients in a goblet filled with cubed ice. Stir well and serve up. Hell, you can even garnish it with an umbrella if you feel so inclined.

Tropical and smooth. A bit of a touristy drink, but hey you never came her to pretend that you’re a native.

And you best enjoy it, fella. Christmas is hanging out outside your window with a ski mask and a sushi knife.

Cheers!
