Hello and welcome to our boozy adventure!
Who are we and what is this adventure about? I'm glad you asked!
We are a family of drinkers, political junkies and hopeful cynics. We, like many of you, have spent our time since Inauguration Day 2017 crying, raging, drinking, panicking, and working to get Democrats elected in the midterms. We celebrated in the Blue Wave and cursed the unfair defeats of Beto O'Rourke, Stacey Abrams, and Andrew Gillum. And now we're staring down the barrel of another long presidential election cycle wondering how the hell we are going to get through it with our minds and our livers intact.
If you can relate, you've come to the right place! And we have an exciting proposition for you: PRESIDENTIAL COCKTAILS!
From now until Inauguration Day 2021--or until we die in a nuclear holocaust, whichever comes first--we will research every candidate (their positions, career highlights, personal foibles, etc.) and create unique cocktails for them! Going forward, each candidate will have their own drink and informational post on this here blog.
It will be an informative and alcoholic journey. No more drinking alone, bemoaning the death of American Democracy. Let's drink together in celebration of the comically large field of Democratic candidates we have this presidential cycle!
None of us are bartenders, so you may notice that many of these cocktails appear to be inspired by established, better-known drinks. But we have done our level best to add unique touches that (hopefully) reflect their namesake. We intend for our drinks to be fun and delicious! Hopefully you make these drinks at home and sample them yourself!
In addition to the Presidential Cocktails, we will also create special politically-themed shots from time to time just for kicks. (Think: Covfefe, Mueller Special, things along those lines.) And once debate season opens we will have you covered with drinking games!!
Oh, won't we have fun??? Absolutely! But I don't think anyone will remember it, because we'll be Blacked Out Until Inauguration Day!!
Meet the team:
Shana: Head mixologist, drink taster. Gen X'er, Democrat for life.
Brandon: Head candidate researcher, drink taster. Gen X'er. Pragmatic Democrat and anti-pedophile.
Meredith: Drink taster. Millenial and Social Democrat.
