That stuff is like god damn cough syrup. The nastiest, sickest drunk I ever got was off Manischewitz at a friend's seder a couple years ago. That stuff's so sweet and cloying, I have a hard time finishing a glassful--but once that glass is gone, the second one is no problem, and then I'm interested in a third...

Nothing CLOSE to cough syrup! Jager is like cough syrup (and I do like it too lol.) But this shit's like something you'd pour over muffins or something lol. I'm telling you - Welch's grape juice.

Since I didn't have a natural attraction to dry wines when I was a teenager/early 20 something, the Manischewitz memories eventually led me to Lambrusco wines since they are also fruity and sweet. I have pleasant memories of getting stoned and drinking Riunite Lambrusco and going skinny dipping. According to wiki, "...Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Lambrusco was the biggest selling import wine in the United States..." Around that time Boon's Farm Apple (which is a malt bev. not wine) was sort of popular in our circle of cheap/poor friends since it was only $0.99 bottle and just enough for a mild buzz if I drank the whole bottle.
Now if I want a sweet drink, which is not very often, I'll have some Cointreau or Grand Marnier maybe a Dubonnet on the rocks.

Hmm - with 7Up might be interesting. I couldn't ever get into the Boone's Farm thing - too many bubbles. I get bloated wiff to many bubbles which is why I rarely drink beer.
But Grand Marnier....mmmmm... I'll never forget my first sip.

LOL
I have about 1/3 of a gallon of this gasoline on my counter right now from making Jello Shots a couple years ago. I mean, if you're making Jello shots, just buy the cheap shit. By the time the shots are broken out, you can't taste anything anyways lol.
Have great recipes though - including Tequila Sunrise, Chocolate Covered Cherry, Chocolate Orange, etc. Huge hits o' mine :p.
