    The ideal bourbon to coke ratio

    I was pondering mankind's largest problems (as you do) and solved a few of them (world hunger, war, how to fit a whole pack of marshmallows in one's mouth)....

    Anyway, whilst doing the above, I also pondered how much bourbon I could take to the Cold Duck... then promptly thought about how much Coca-Cola I'd need to take to mix with said bourbon.

    Being a see how much shit I can put on the bike sort of guy, can you offer any advice to the ideal bourbon / coke ratio?

    It depends on previous/current consumption ratio.

    If you have been largely OTP* (Off the piss) for a while - a small/splash ratio is adequate.

    IF you are in a drinking (The Oliver Reed) phase - 50/50 is doable.


    * I once played in a basketball team called OTP.

    Much better idea is to flag taking coke and simply take more Bourbon,though overpriced at bike rallys shelling out for a few bottles of coke wont send you to the poor house not to mention the amount of coke needed will decrease as the night goes on.

    Funniest part is gonna be seeing the melting ice pouring off your bike as you ride through the gate at a no byo party !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    The ideal ratio of bourbon to coke is 100:0

    Why would you ruin good bourbon by adding coke!

    Ah - bourbon....
    2 fingers of bourbon in a glass of your choice. Add bourbon to taste.

    Note: This recipe will work with all spirits. Except gin. Goes without saying, really
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    I believe the coke to bourbon ratio changes as the night progresses, so really any advice is futile. But I do have some advice........

    You guys are doing it wrong.

    The ideal ratio is:

    Coke 0%
    Bourbon 0%
    Scotch (or Irish) whisk(e)y 100%

    Hey! Even Whisky drinkers like to slum it occasionally...
