[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wtf is "refreshing cocktail"? Two hard alcoholic drink a night is too much drinking.  [/quote]

Refreshing a cocktail is making yourself a new one, adding more bitters or spirits or ice, a new mixer, etc. Have you ever been to a cocktail party, a dinner party, a barbecue, or any kind of party? [/quote]

No. They have not. They obviously don’t get invited to parties, not with that moralizing, judgmental attitude.[/quote]

This was on Friday night during Covid times. I feel bad for you if you need hard booze at a barbeque. Do you have social anxiety? I know people like OP - I'll just have a glass of wine at 5 PM; two hours later, the whole bottle is gone.

You are really bringing your own baggage to this. Friday night "during COVID times" finds many sensible people socializing at a distance, outdoors, perhaps by a fire.

Hard booze at a barbecue? Seriously? Here are some wonderful, well-loved barbecue cocktail recipes from the NYT:

https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016278-noreaster (this one is especially well-known)

Here's another offering from Food & Wine

Perhaps you also feel sorry for the legions of readers making these recipes or enjoying them at restaurants during non-pandemic times?

It's also interesting that you seem to know the demographic makeup of people on this post; the WP story refers to white, middle-aged women. Have you conducted a demographic survey of the posters on this thread?

Please reserve your pity for those who require it.
