Loko for them Lokos

A couple of weeks ago I met up with a friend for a drinking session. When I arrived at his place he was already a few deep and greeted me with a Four Loko saying “catch up.” I had never had one before and told him that they reminded me of high school students (my little sisters drink them). He wisely informed me, that when it comes to partying on the cheap, we would do well to take lead from high school kids. And boy was he right! That shit fucked me up pretty good after only one! Four Loko is available at most liquor stores and 7-Elevens and sells for between $2.50 and $3 for a 23.5 ounce can, that’s a hell of a deal for a guaranteed drunk if you ask me. They come in several flavors too. According to my friend they all taste like battery acid, but I actually didn’t find the flavor too off-putting. I think they mainly taste artificial and candy-like, with a bit of an after taste. I found the fruit punch flavor reminiscent of a fun-dip, I actually kinda enjoyed it to be honest. Currently I’m about half-way through a blue-raspberry, which gives me the impression of a ring-pop or blow pop…and yes, I’m feeling pretty good! I’ve heard good things about the lemonade, and I have an orange flavored one in the fridge that I’m looking forward to trying out in the next few days. On the downside, it seems some senators and district attorneys want the beverage investigated and banned because they claim it’s marketed to children, so stock up while you still can!
