pronounced soCRAtez, this drink is a combination of a screwdriver with natural light.
John 3:17- and God came unto the orange grove and said unto the people "make this into juice and combine it with the cheapest of vodkas". the people rejoiced.
Socrates, the famous philosopher in one of his little known works "where God could use a little help" demonstrated the logic of adding natural light to screwdrivers.
1. orange juice and vodka are great.
2. natural light is great.
3. if you add one great thing to another you get something fantastic.
4. it therefore follows that adding natural light to orange juice and vodka will be fantastic.
