So, Buddy laid out The Gratitude and Grub Music Challenge for us this month and I couldn’t be happier! This might be my favorite time of year — even more than Christmas. Christmas just gets nuts. Too many presents, too many damn Christmas commercials, and I swear to God if I hear “All I Want For Christmas Is You” one more time . . .

At Thanksgiving I get good food, the Macy’s Day parade (it’s the 100th anniversary this year kids!), football, and a nap! That’s a perfect day, people!

Well, I forgot one thing — the drinks! Now, I don’t care if you like your drinks with or without alcohol. You do you. I’m just saying, you need something to wash all that food and football down with.

So, my contribution to this challenge is a list of songs that have a drink of some kind or the word “drink” in the title. See what you think:

Rum and Coca-Cola — The Andrews Sisters (1945)
