When I was in college, people would brew some Constant Comment tea and lace it with Southern Comfort ... producing a Constant Comfort.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Random note: I gotta say I remain a big fan of western medicine. I know the healthcare system in the US is horrendously effed up, but the actual medicine? When I think of how doomed I'd have been just 30 or 20 years ago, and how much physical pain I'd have to grit my teeth through while sliding to doom, while instead I'm sitting up drinking a Hec-crafted latte, bopping between social media and the current book (The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett) and feeling pretty fine now that the constipation is gone I'm just boggled.

That actually sounds kinda good.

Well, yeah, but that's the capitalism, not the science. I'm glad the medicine is making things better for you than they would have been, JZ.

Constant Comfort is a great name. The drink sounds pretty comforting and tasty as well.
Glad for the feeling pretty fine part, for sure, JZ! I drink my instant coffee in solidarity (I would be drinking it anyway, but I was thinking of you enjoying a latte while I was makin it)

Constant Comment is my recent go to when I want caffeinated tea. I may have to try this.

I made some really questionable decisions after drinking Southern Comfort back in the day.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
My college mixed drink of choice — the Alabama Slammer — featured Southern Comfort. It was sticky-sweet and really easy to drink too many really quickly.

Comfort Sours were my go to drink for a while in college.
I will admit, I first started drinking Southern Comfort because of Janis Joplin and I was drinking Wild Turkey for a while because of Thelma and Louise. I don't know how much my taste in alcohol was ever really driven by, well, taste.

Wild Turkey 101 is good stuff. Before my brother got sober, he gave me a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 for Christmas one year. His wife makes pottery, and she gave me a pottery jug. My brother said the Wild Turkey tastes better if you keep it in a pottery jug. I honestly can't tell the difference between Wild Turkey in a bottle and Wild Turkey in a jug, but I feel like both a hipster and a hillbilly keeping my booze in a pottery jug with a cork.
