1 finger of bourbon sounds like maybe 1 shot or maybe 1.5 shots at most. Not getting anyone buzzed, especially if merely sipped.

I can actually confirm cops genuinely do drink a ton of coffee, because the job is generally so boring. Especially if it's late night shift and/or they're working a lot of overtime. Cops make six-figures quite easily milking overtime.

My mother is English and I spent a lot of time there as a kid. Whenever anything bad happens, the first response is to always put the kettle on.


I love this. Whenever there's a crisis (or the soaps are over) there's a power surge from all the cuppas

My dad had one old fashioned almost every night after work. My DH has a Jameson once or twice a week.

My DH has a glass of scotch most nights, in a fancy glass. No decanter, though.

My dad would prepare a highball for he and my mom pretty much the minute they got home from work every day. Then they would start dinner.

I drink 1-2 glasses of scotch or bourbon almost every day, from a $50 glass, and sometimes from a fancy decanter. It’s an enjoyable habit, a small bit of tradition and luxury and routine.

Sipping a finger of bourbon…not doing shots of Fireball
