G. I. Tarpicker, SASS #998 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Is it okay to have a vodka martini with a pizza? Because that's what I'm contemplating. Would Bond do it? Ward would, James, probably not. -- GIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowCatcher Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Well, tastes differ. I enjoy it. And I'm boycotting all things Russian. I mistyped ... Was trying to say it's very nice - I like it! Damn you auto-correct!!! SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Adventures in various Vodkas By country and by ingredients. I'm impressed. Several of those are sold at the local WallyWorld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Sarge Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 About 30 years ago, the Army sent me to DLI for Russian. While there, I had a class on the proper way to drink Vodka, the "water of life". Drink it straight and follow it with a bite of black bread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yes exactly. Haven had a frozen pizza for years. I'll use jalapeno stuffed olives to make it Cowboy. And no Russki vodka of course. Russky Wodka is made by filtering the hydraulic fluid that leaks from their fighter planes and tanks then adding a bit of flavoring with whatever is in season. I prefer Swedish vodka (tastes like chocolate..............or is that Swiss Vodka?) or Finnish vodka, tastes cold, never goes warm! Pizza? Just add BACON!

Charlie Plasters, SASS#60943 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I should have said Sean Connery, the only True Bond. I thought you were referring to Ward Bond ! I bet he'd have had any booze with pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 I thought you were referring to Ward Bond ! I bet he'd have had any booze with pizza. I doubt he'd even consider pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think the Vodka martini would be fine as a cocktail or starter. In fact, make mine dirty with three olives. With the entrée I'd suggest wine, and for Bond that means going with either the Dom Perignon '55 or the Bollinger '75. As for the pizza I'd guess he'd go thin crust with seared Foie Gras, and goat's cheese finished with Beluga caviar served by a beautiful blond wearing only his white unbutton dress shirt. The things we do for God and Country, Bon Appetite. Given the amount of time that has passed since most of the Bond novels were written, would anyone be drooling over these ancient champagnes anymore? Would a '55 anything have any fizz anymore? Or decent flavor? I understand that some folks want a bottle in their cellar for bragging rights, but if you had one, would you open it? And if you opened it, would you expect a decent drink or sludge or something else? LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
