Every Friday over the next several weeks we’ll be talking tailgating. That’s thanks to a cool sponsorship deal with Captain Morgan. You know, the maker tasty sweet spiced rum with the wacky pirate mascot. Mmmm.
Captain of the tailgate: Mess with the mix
So far this tailgating season we’ve talked about grills and marinades. This week, it’s mixed drinks. Mixed drinks at tailgates are usually passed off by dullards as “girlie,” in favor of liquid crap like Natural Ice. However, a distinguished man, such as myself, prefers a good mixed drink for two reasons. 1. They taste better. 2. They get you drunk quicker.
Our fine sponsor Captain Morgan mixes especially well with cranberry juice. I like to mix three parts cranberry juice with one part Captain Morgan over ice for a quick cocktail. But if you really want something tasty, add an extra step. Mix together two parts cranberry juice with two parts ginger ale and one part Captain Morgan. It’s wonderful. Another good one, coincidentally perfect for this time of year, is Captain Morgan added to warm apple cider.
In the comments, let me know what kind of mixers you like to ingest. If you get that far, you’ll see a fun video of Marissa Miller. If you don’t get the reference in the headline, your life kinda sucks. Sorry.
