JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:

It’s another one of those drinks that was popular in the past and is making a comeback.  Craft cocktails are now all the rage, so more drinks like this will be added to bar menus.  It’s interesting how this became a fad in New York City, then went west, only to be mostly forgotten in the East.

I still think it would be better frozen, though…

And remember… drink responsibility!  Sorry kids, 21 and over – please!

The Eastern seaboard of the United States is currently locked in a 20 year deep freeze.  Cities up and down the coast are locked into the coldest temperatures they have experienced in over two decades.

We’ve all heard the myth that boiling hot water will instantly freeze in temperatures under 32° and scientists have proved that — but what about beer?  Alcohol has a lower freezing temperature.

Watch what happens as Jersey Joe and his friends test out boiling hot water and an ice cold beer in 4° temperatures.

The East Coast is certainly locked in a deep freeze right now.  It’s been over two decades, since temperatures have fallen this low along the Eastern seaboard.  It was a cold night out… so we had a little fun. Check it out… maybe my friends and I could be of use to an elementary school science experiment or something…
