RED vs BLUE - An Observation

If politics is the life blood of this country (okay, so it really isn’t) then consider this:

We have Red States and Blue States. The Red States are the ones that tend to vote mostly for the Republican and the Blue States tend to vote mostly for the Democrat.

Now, in our bodies we have our life blood – our blood. If you remember from your biology class you will remember that when blood receives oxygen (becomes oxygenated) it turns Red.

Also remember that when blood has no oxygen it is Blue.

What this means is that we need to get some oxygen to the Blue Statesfast!

Red State Martini
Four fresh cherries
1 ½ parts Vodka
½ part Pomegranate juice
1 part Fresh sour mix

Muddle cherries into a shaker, then combine the remaining ingredients with ice and shake vigorously until very cold. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with one skewered cherry.

Blue State Martini
Eight fresh blueberries
1 ½ parts Vodka
½ part Blue Curacao
½ part Fresh sour mix

Muddle blueberries into a shaker, then combine the remaining ingredients with ice and shake vigorously until very cold. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with three skewered blueberries.

Will a fart do? I could manage that but I refuse to give a Democrat any oxygen.

Caz man: I'll have to try the Red State Martini...although I like blueberries, I can't bring myself to make a Blue State (or anything Democratic) 'tini!

You might try that Red State martini with cherry vodka, like my Perfect Cherry Martini - it helps balance the tartness of the pomegranate juice.

Great idea, political martinis - helps make politics easier to swallow!
