Drink of the Week for Jul 5th, 2001: Cantaloupe Dizzy
What we had to say
Peach schnapps this week. We were in the booze barn stocking up and we overheard people commenting on peach schnapps, saying "Time for fuzzy navels!" (To the layman: they weren't talking about bellybutton lint). We realized that peach had been typecast - stereotyped, as it were. Upon initiating verbal communications with the life-forms, they couldn't think of a beverage that required peach schnapps that wasn't a fuzzy navel, or fuzzy navel derivative.
So here is the result of our tireless campaign this week. A rather fizzy, cool reproduction of melon-tasting goodness.
