Limes

[AllAmerican75]

A4's... I've got a new use for limes for you, a shot I learned at the O'club a few weeks ago drinking with some guys from -32 called a "stunt man".

Snort the salt, take a shot of tequila, and squeeze the lime in your eye.

I like to taste my booze... nothing like a shot of wild turkey to get you out of bed and on your way to work! (not really)

Who does this?

Sounds painful.

Limes are for wussies that can't actually stand the taste of booze...

The only person that says this is someone who is so afraid of their booze tasting good because they think people will think their penis is small...

Personally, I used lime juice on a daily basis to prevent scurvy and flush my kidneys. Sometimes I sweeten the lime juice with 2 parts Tequila, 1 part Cointreau, ice, and a healthy float of Gran Marinier on top.

How many parts lime juice?

 

[skidkid]

enough

My Aussie has set fruit! I'll be able to report on taste in about a month.

How many parts lime juice?

Before the Mod-Squad "squeezes" this thread closed ....

Juice of 12 limes
Juice of 1 orange
8 Jiggers of Tequila
4 Jiggers of Cointreau
simple sugar to taste

Blender .... then

Cracked Ice (in glass -- not the blender, you fool)

Float Gran Marinier on top

Adjust quantities (above) as desired .... repeat as necessary .....

Did you make that up, or did you find the recipe somewhere?

 

[Fly Navy]

Ditto. I just finished up five months in Mexico, where they look at Sauza and Cuervo Gold as the kind of swill you'd only drink if you were in an unemployment line

Because it IS swill.

Because it IS swill.

True,

This is the same reason why I cannot drink most US beer anymore. 3 Months in Europe drinking the good stuff.

Need to find the US distributor for these guys. No limes required.

Please be an exception to my developing theory that those who say they don't like US beer only drank Bud and Coors.

First you drink Bud, then you get Weis Er...

I like Yuengling, Sam Adams, and a lot of micro-brews. Its just that the eurpoean "national" beers were far superior to Bud, Coors, Miller. etc.

Ok. So you do like quality American brews. Good deal.

I think it's completely unfair to compare Bud, Coors, etc to anything European. They're distinctly American, and for a good reason. The history is pretty interesting and goes all the way back to Prohibition.

in Mexico, .... they look at Sauza and Cuervo Gold as the kind of swill you'd only drink if you were in an unemployment line (which in Mexico may translate into "a chain link fence near El Paso"... I keed, I keed ).....

No estoy embromando, Senior.



Pero .... it cracks me up --- Mexicans looking down their nose(s) at anything in Norte America --- shows that hypocrisy knows no race, ethnicity, religion, or national borders.

Most of the Tequilas here en la Tierra Prometida are of export quality. That's why they are "here" ... to make mountains of pesos for the wealthy landowners (and distillers) back in ol' Mexico. Now maybe we could work something out with all the illegals flowing northward --- you know bring the "good" stuff in on their backs for some consideration .... ??? ( hmmmmm ... the term "wetback" might actually apply in this instance ...si' ?)
