Overserved on sloe gin fizz
Since no one else will link. My generation is way too full of goody-two shoes-es.
Many have fond memories of colorful sloe gin fizz misadventure.
Back when I still had hope I managed a swimming pool in the summer. During the season we had private parties for the staff. My best friend was the pool handyman and toward the end of the night he boasted he could drink just about anything.
I eyed a half full bottle of sloe gin on the table beside him. Betcha can’t do that, I said.
He accepted that challenge. Took about five minutes to wind up on the sidewalk outside.
I drove by the next day and the owner of the rental where we’d had the party was out trying to hose a baked-in stain off the cement.
