have you ever heard of a mixed (alcoholic) beverage called an icepick?

if so, what is it? how old are you? where are you from? who calls it that?

Just wondering, as I just made one.

oh i forgot about this. it’s just a vodka and iced tea with lemon, which is
a pretty basic mixed drink as such things go.

around here, though, it’s called a vodka tea. we don’t call it an icepick
either.

I don’t know who does. Y’all were inconclusive. Isn’t that weird? I
searched the web but like, nobody knows what the fuck they’re talking
about. It’s got to be a regionalism or something but I cannot figure out
which region.

Anyway, thanks for answering, everyone who did.

I make herbal tisanes and put alcohol in them all the time and people are
always like “omg this is amazing what is yr secret” my secret is 1) always
make the tisane sweetened 2) don’t put that much booze in it

Now U Know.

(suggested recipes: thyme and honey with gin. mint and sage and sugar with
rum. anise hyssop and honey with brandy.)
