What I tend to order is an Old Fashioned Bénédictine (if they’re able to make it), which is basically the old-fashioned Old Fashioned exchanging bourbon for Bénédictine liqueur. It’s very nice … smooth with just a little bit of spice.

The bottles of Bénédictine are sold with the initials D.O.M. on the label standing for Deo Optimo Maximo, or God, Most Good, Most Great (forgive my sloppy latin.)

B&B is also a fairly common (I think) drink, which is simply Bénédictine and Brandy. Bénédictine is also nice mixed 1:1 with a good cognac.

No the Jesus must be an original creation. What was Willis the Bruce again?

Well, I did invent the Willis the Bruce. I haven’t copywrited that, though, so you could probably rename it The Jesus.

If you don’t know why the drinks are named after the devil, you are not doing it right.

I only had sex with that other woman one time. One single, solitary time.

It was one cube. One, single solitary cube.

These are all absolutely valid points. I’m pretty sure the devil is impotent, too.

Contrary to popular opinion, the devil is a teetotaller, a recovering alcoholic since he got blind drunk and started throwing barstools and harps around heaven – until the bouncers came. Hell is dry. Why do you think it’s called “hell”? And the devil is such a bitch?

And any notion of ice in scotch?

And therefore duly reject any kind of cosmopolitans, either from the bartender or Appiah.

My community once combined Vanilla Vodka with some orange soda for communion (we were out of wine, and someone was sick so we needed alcohol to sterilize it). It was so good, we end up calling it the Blood of Christ (or the BOC).

Well, as long as they don’t call it TruBlood.

You could say that this whole venture of mine is quite biblical in that we are explicitly commanded to “test the spirits to see if they are from God” (1 John 4:1).
