Easy and I went out late Saturday night to this wonderful place in St. Louis called "lola.".
I really liked the atmosphere of this place and I would recommend it to anyone in St. Louis looking for a place to hang out where there is good music, good food, good service, and good company.
When we got there, there was a band playing live music and we watched them for a bit.
Then we went to get a drink from one of the bars.
I know they make strong ass drinks in St. Louis, so I ordered one of the weakest drinks I could think of, a fuzzy navel.
Peach Schnapps and orange juice, how could you make that too strong?
Plus, it was very late at night and I didn't want to be getting drunk at 1 in the morning.
But I was wrong, the bartender made it too strong. She filled the cup 3/4 of the way with Peach Schnapps and then filled it up with orange juice.
The bottom 1/3 of the cup was still completely clear because there was so little orange juice in the cup.
I didn't even bother tasting it, I immediately asked for another cup of orange juice with no ice and an empty cup.
When Easy and I found a seat near the live music, I began making my concoction.
First I poured all of the fuzzy navel into the empty cup, leaving only the ice in the cup. I tasted the drink and it waaaaay too strong.
It didn't even taste like a fuzzy navel. It just tasted like a shot of Peach Schnapps.
So I alternated pouring the pure orange juice and the fuzzy navel into the now empty cup with the ice until it was a proportion I much preferred to drink.
It tasted much better, and I ended up with the volume of two drinks instead of one.
I learned a while ago that they makes drinks super strong in St. Louis. That's great for getting your money's worth, but bad if you want to enjoy the taste as well as the effect of your drinks.
