Audio Drinkument 10: PUBLIC SCHOOL + American Drink

ad10

This edition of the Audio Document series was done in conjunction with our friends at American Drink who helped pick half of the songs. It includes 14 hand-picked songs to enjoy with the beverage of your choice. Grab a copy of the Audio Document here and then sit down with that beverage. If you’re having a hard time selecting the drink, just keep the words of American Drink in mind:

We’ve become spoiled and lazy here in the States. Instead of crafting cocktails from scratch, many turn to pre-made mixers full of food coloring and high-fructose corn syrup to help mask the taste of vodka—OF VODKA, a drink that’s rated based on the lack of taste. Meanwhile, the vodka industry pumps out flavored varieties to appeal to the juvenile tastes of a nation that is number one in the world in soft drink consumption.

America, we can do better.

Big thanks to American Drink for being a cool friend-in-the-blogosphere and for helping select the tunes!

    I will be listening to it later, probably enjoying whiskey on the rocks. But, in the summer months, I very much enjoy a ras-whiskey cocktail –

    1 part Jamison whiskey
    1 part lemonade
    1 part sprite
    and a little bit of raspberry syrup
    over ice

    The Old Fashioned at Frank is my favorite cocktail in town right now.
