Ok - let’s not focus on the Chargers’ 0–6 record (what a tragic mess). Let’s not focus on the fact I have a full week of work. Instead, I want to focus on this amazing Whiskey Pop Root Beer Float Whiskey - and how dang delicious it is. Mixed up this baby while cooking and it was a post-dinner dessert in a glass. Seriously unique and like nothing I've ever made. Thanks Whiskey Pop for your magical bottle of good.

Editor's Note

A simple highball built around a root beer float-flavored whiskey. Black cherry juice adds a fruity counterpoint, creating a sweet, nostalgic, dessert-style drink.
