There once lived a Razzberry Rhinoceros
Who lost his raspberries and became dolorous
He went to the jungle to find some
He came away, dissapointed, glum
The French 75 made him frivolous.
He rode into the sea on a Jager Bomb
A Dark &Stormy cocktail settled his nerves, made him calm
When he sighted his Old Maid By the shore
He could not take it no more
He stuck out his middle finger from his palm.
Please dont make sense out of this limerick.Limericks are not supposed to make sense anyway .
A few days ago i went to a place called The Razzberry Rhinoceros and even though I don't drink, I am fascinated with the names of these alcoholic beverages.
The ones that got my goat were French 75, Dark&Stormy cocktail, Old Maid By, Jager Bomb. so i got a real kick doing this crazy verse,,sonething to take away the monday blues .

I kinda liked how the story went and it probably would have sounded intoxicatingly sweet to a drinker which Iβm notπ. But I have heard of some out of these world alcohol beverage names too and Jager Bomb is one of them. They should have one called Intoxicating Ode, Iβd know the perfect bartender!
