I’m in an alcohol rut. Plain and simple.
I find myself drinking the same ol’ beverages. In the same ol’ quantities. All. The time.
Sure it’s predictable. And tasty. And I’m well across EXACTLY how many G&Ts I can knock back before I’m on the floor trying to do the worm. (Five. It’s five).
My routine never changes.
To kick off the night? Craft beer. While my palate still does the whole taste thing.
Next? Wine. Preferably a light, fruity number. Here’s a drop I’m loving at the moment:
From there it's a fuzzy blur of vodka sodas, gin tonics, and definitely NOT cruisers (cruisers).
I need a change. Desperately.
Some people suggested that I "stop drinking" for a while. I suggested they "go away". Because it's silly season. And there's nothing better than having friends and family 'round to your place, cook up some salads and snags, and drink alcohol from a watermelon.
Sorry, what?
Yep. Watermelon keg. WATER. MELON. KEG. It's a thing. And it's non-negotiable. You absolutely need it in your life.
