Sparkey Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 The other day in training, we were doing a little boxing drill: Your partner throws a punch. Your response is: Parry right, "bridge" left (a bridge being the left hand sort of flopped over opponants arm, palm side up), Press down right, Punch Left.So, my partner, who was a beginner, was talking through each step: Parry, bridge, press, punch. After a while she tried to do the exersise quietly, but she forgot a step: the press. She said, "I keep doing a Parry, bridge, punch"! Then I commented that Parry Bridge Punch sounds like a mixed drink you'd get at a bar! We decided we had to invent a drink and get our local watering hole to add it to their drink list. The problem is that neither of us know much about Mixology! I thought I ask you all!So: If you had to mix a drink called a "Parry Bridge Punch" what would it have in it?
aefibird Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Well, I don't know much about cocktails and the 'science' of making them, but with a drink like that having "Punch" in the name then it would need to 'pack a punch' when you drank it, so it would have to be strong. Maybe include rum? "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!
monkeygirl Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Cherry rhymes with Parry. Just a thought. 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
aefibird Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 So... cherry rum then! "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!
dtstiachi Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 won't cherry rum give you a punch? "The journey of a 1,000 miles starts with but a single step."
Kicks Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Depends on what rum. I like Barbancourt the best, but it cost more. Maybe you ought to use a spiced rum like Mount Gay or Captain Morgan (lol, I'm currently wearing a Capt. Morgan T-shirt). Or, if you perfer, a flavored rum. I like coconut rum, but there is banana and other flavors too. Coconut rum and coke is one of my favorites. when you create the world's largest trailer park, you're going to have tornadoes
Sparkey Posted April 25, 2005 Author Posted April 25, 2005 Ohhh! Flavored Rum! I like that idea! Cherry is a good idea, too. I was thinking cranberry, but I'm actually liking the cherry idea. Hhhhmmmmm...Maybe Cherry Coconut Rum And something else...something a little spicy or twisty....I wonder how a little cinnimon liqeur would go, just for a taste, or if it would overpower everything. Or Amaretto?? That would be good, too. Cherry and amaretto is nice. Hmmmm....I might have to try a few different things!
