I'll Have a Bronx, & A Manhattan, on Staten Island, Too!

I'm surprised my fellow monkeys haven't adopted the affectation of ordering a Bronx with each meal:

Cheers, compadres!

The Bronx

* 2 ounces gin
* 1/2 ounce dry vermouth
* 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
* 1 ounce fresh orange juice

Bill W's one time friend

I'm surprised this article doesn't mention one of the most historically important facts about the Bronx--it was the first drink Bill Wilson got smashed on. He was nervous at a party, and had a few of them, and said "I had found the elixir of life."
Bill Wilson is better known as Bill W., the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Is there another Summer of Gin in store?

Warning

Warning: Do not go drinking on Staten Island. In fact, don't be on Staten Island.

No Staten Island?

I will go you one further and just steer clear of the NYC area in general. Better safe than sorry!
