Alright, let’s talk about this “Walk Me Down Drink,” whatever that fancy name means. Sounds like somethin’ you’d need after a long day workin’ in the fields, not that I ever did much field work, mind you. My back ain’t built for that.
So, from what I gather, this here drink is strong, real strong. They throw everything but the kitchen sink in it, like them city folks do. Vodka, yeah, I heard of that. Rum, that’s the stuff pirates drink, or so they say in them movies. Gin? Don’t know much about that. And tequila? That’s the one that makes you wanna dance, or so my grandson tells me. He’s a wild one, that boy.
Then they put in this blue stuff, “Blue Curaçao” they call it. Sounds foreign, probably expensive. And some kinda sweet and sour mix. Probably to make it taste less like paint thinner, if you ask me. Oh, and lemon-lime soda too? Sounds like a whole lotta sugar and bubbles to me.
- Vodka – the strong stuff
- Rum – pirate’s drink
- Gin – beats me what this is
- Tequila – makes you dance, they say
- Blue Curaçao – that fancy blue stuff
- Sweet and sour mix – makes it less sour, I guess
- Lemon-lime soda – sugar and bubbles
Now, some folks call it a “Fall Me Down” drink. That makes more sense to me. You drink too much of this, you’ll be fallin’ down alright. They even serve it in a big ol’ glass, like a saxophone, they say. And it’s got a strap so you can carry it around your neck. Seems kinda silly if you ask me, but who am I to judge?
They say it’s like that “Long Island Iced Tea.” Another fancy name. But this one’s got more of that citrusy taste, whatever that means. And it’s strong, real strong. They also call it a name I can’t even say here, somethin’ about a mother. Sounds like trouble to me. You drink too much of that, you’ll be sayin’ “adios” to your senses, that’s for sure.
So, how do you make this crazy concoction? Well, it ain’t rocket science, even I could probably do it, though I ain’t much of a bartender. You just mix all that stuff together – the vodka, the rum, the gin, the tequila, that blue stuff, the sour mix, and the soda. Pour it over ice, and there you have it. A “Walk Me Down” or “Fall Me Down” or whatever you wanna call it.
But let me tell you somethin’. This ain’t no drink for the faint of heart. This is the kinda drink you have when you wanna forget your troubles, or maybe when you wanna celebrate somethin’ big. Just don’t go drinkin’ too many of ’em, or you’ll be seein’ double and talkin’ backwards. And that ain’t pretty, trust me.
Some folks, they like to get all fancy with their drinks, measurin’ everything just so. Me? I just throw it all in a big pitcher and let ‘er rip. That’s how we did it back in the day. No fancy shakers or jiggers or whatever they call ’em. Just good ol’ fashioned mixin’ and pourin’. And you know what? It tasted just fine. Maybe even better than them fancy city drinks.
So, there you have it. Everything I know about this “Walk Me Down” drink. It’s strong, it’s blue, and it’ll probably knock you on your behind if you ain’t careful. But hey, sometimes that’s what you need, right? Just remember to drink responsibly, or you’ll be regrettin’ it in the mornin’. And that’s the truth, whether you like it or not.
Now, I gotta go, my favorite show is comin’ on. You kids stay outta trouble, ya hear? And don’t go drinkin’ too many of them “Walk Me Downs.” You’ll thank me later.
