What is the drink that most makes people grimace after drinking (I think it's either tequila or calvados).
I will contribute as soon as they return my credit card, ta,

Put water in the hydration bladder. 20KM I'd probably carry 3 gallons with me in Texas. It's hot as hell here.
Apostrophes are necessary to language to help reinforce an image in another person's head. persons head wouldn't make sense, because it would be the plural of person, as in, more than one person. It does not show ownership of anything, and instead derails the entire argument.
You need your apostrophes!
As for drinks that make people grimace, well, gubernija, for 1$ a 20oz bottle of 9% alcohol beer, it's made a lot of my friends make all kinds of crazy faces.
