Used in a sentence: "I may have called it a cherry cherry whiskey sour in my recent year-end best-of list for 2016, but I can now officially state that, in my old age, my drink of choice is a Quint Cherry Whiskey Sour."
The Quint isn't a brand name ... it just stands for the cherry in the whiskey PLUS the cherry juice I add from the maraschino jar PLUS the three cherries that get plopped in the concoction (they are hiding on the bottom of the glass) ... aka the five "quint" cherries.
And on a good night, when daddy needs a double (PS ... I'm the "daddy" in that scenario), I guess that means my fav drink is a Deca Cherry Whiskey Sour ... or a Double Quint Cherry Whiskey Sour -- whichever makes your brain hurt less ...
Cheers!
