In honor of those friends abroad that we miss dearly and those friends that we have gained or gotten back, I propose a toast. This is no ordinary toast, for all know that South Street's Secret Society drinks far more heavily than any other. This is a toast to those who lived under the blue awnings before us, as well as those that will live under them after. So before we start the usual power hour, raise your glass as I give you the South Street Bomb.
From Manhattan's South Street Seaport to Philly's South Street, and back to The Heat here on the Heights, avenues opposite of north are always a good time. Let us not forget the many other South and southern things that we love: Park, Pole, Carolina, Comfort, America (Peru, boiboi), Beach, and California's University.
Grab your favorite shot glass and fill it with the schnapps. Pour your beer of choice into a cup - I'd recommend a solo cup or any other 16-ounce glass, just in case of splashing. Drop your shot glass into the cup and chug as fast as your epiglottis will allow. This simple yet tasty treat will leave you with the aftertaste of root beer and the after effects of regular beer.
The most exciting thing about this week's Drink Up is that it's my half birthday. In six months, I'll be able to try this drink. Speaking of birthdays, today is Ellen Page's birthday, as well as Rue McClanahan's, aka Blanche of the Golden Girls. That one's for your grandma. No matter if you're toasting to a birthday or your favorite street, get ready to get bombed and drink up!
