Drink of the Week for Mar 7th, 2002: Chi-Chi
What we had to say
This drink is pretty common, but it comes in so many forms that we decided to share our version of it because it's clearly the best. If you don't agree we'll meet you behind the bike racks at 3:30. First of all, those other drink sites have it all wrong - this isn't a vodka drink. Again, if you don't agree...bike racks. This is a tropical drink, thus the cold steppes of Yaktusk and their katabatic winds have nothing to do with it - it's all about the rum. Try it and see. You know where to find us otherwise.
