I'll make the case for what I KNOW to be the GOAT drink

ENTER Brisk Raspberry

PROS

-Literally the GOAT drink on all levels
-Perfect combination of flavor, sweetness, tartness, etc. Quite honest defines the word BALANCE
-Can have it with a 7 dollar meal (so I've heard) or a 700 dollar meal (actual experience)

CONS

-They don't sell them canned in the grocery stores near me
-Sometimes I get a stomach ache if I drink it too fast

When I lived in LA, the old lady and I would often have friends come down and tell us about Bourbon & Branch. Nothing but good things. Unfortunately, every time we would go up, usually on our way to Napa and Sonoma, something would come up, and we wouldn't find the time to check that place out.

Now that I'm so far away, it is less likely any time soon.

the drink i invented, while shaken like a martini, is served in a tall rocks or even pint glass, not a chilled, coated martini glass.....just saying. Could i have went w/ Raspberry/Blackberry Brandy, w/ diced fruit and club soda? would that be more allowable Palp?

clearly i was making drinks for woman, and not so much men

so my girl was raised pretty poor, as such she feels weird getting 'nicer' gifts and she wouldn't allow me to buy her a TV for Xmas or Valentines Day (seriously, how rare is a non entitled woman these days?)

Anyhoo, i worked around that by getting her a 22" LED monitor to go w/ her Xbox and speakers i already got. Lo and behold, the one time i didn't actively research it, and neither the monitor nor Xbox has a 3.5mm/aux port to plug the speakers in (shit it doesn't even have RCA/Stereo plugs, wtf). I fixed that by getting her a Vizio soundbar, which uses Digital Coaxial/Optical and everything works fine. Ended up spending more than just buying a 32" tv, but those generally only output at 780p anyway, so the monitor was the better option

Stopped right here. Martinis weren't ever shaken classically, and any real Martini drinker, whether it be with Vodka and especially Gin, always ask for it to be stirred.

Bozo Fleming, purposely made Bond this way to show how, while he tried to fit in, was never quite refined enough. As a result, besmirched the classic Martini for decades to come.

I'm on too many meds to be drinking, but when I do its beer or wine

No edited that out, I was going somewhere else with the creation of the Martini, and then lost track. Don't know Fleming.

My dad always drank very dry martini's...basically 3 fingers of ice cold gin and a couple of olives

Just fucking w/ you man. I knew that about martini's, but it does seem the vast majority of younger people order them shaken. When i worked at the country club in VA, it was usually stirred, but the average customer was at least 50 so ya
