Alcoholic Drinks That Are Actually Good For You......
Posted Monday, July 9, 2007 at 01:36PMCharbay green tea vodka contains antioxidants that according to research lower cholesterol and prevent cancer. The drink has a crispy refreshing, herbal, real brewed tea taste. Considering the medicinal value, the $32 a bottle price tag, this drink is a plus. If tea is not for you, there is the Pama Pomegranate liqueur $25 a bottle. According to researchers this drink contains more antioxidants than red wine. If you prefer a six pack to the bottle, get the Stampede Light Beer $8. It contains vitamin B and its almost tasteless, very thin flavour. Lastly and definitely not the least, grab the Ty Ku Sake liqueur. Contains damiana, a tolk medicine aphrodisiac. Sweet and you can even add vodka for a smoother drink. Popular among pornstars.

drinking songs
Posted Saturday, March 17, 2007 at 03:57PM
The Beastie Boys aren’t Irish - like, not even a little bit - but they really mastered the art of the drinking song very early on in their career (once they got past their hardcore punk phase, that is). It was at the tender age of nine that I learned of Brass Monkey, Thunderbird wine, Olde English 800, and other such classy beverages - all through the Beasties’ 1986 breakout record Licensed to Ill. And though I’ve yet to try the O.E. and Rice-a-Roni combo suggested in “Hold It Now, Hit It,” I can’t say I’m not still just a wee bit curious.
If you want sad drinking songs, you can always turn to someone like Elliott Smith or Tom Waits - but who wants a tear in their beer on St. Paddy’s Day? So much better to spin Licensed to Ill, which made number 64 on Sarah and The Goon Squad’s top records of all-time list. “My favorite line from this album is ‘We drink, and rob, and rhyme and pillage,’” she says, quoting opening track “Rhymin’ and Stealin’.” “I think in other circumstances I would like to live my life like that.”

You’ve got your own distinctive style. You tailor your clothes. You’ve even had a custom scent composed. So why are you drinking the same vodka as everyone else? Cool Hunting tips us off to Haute, custom flavored vodka tailored to your specific tastes. At $150 a bottle (with a 10-case minimum, totaling 15 grand), it ain’t exactly cheap, but can you put a price on individuality? We didn’t think so.
