Substitute prune juice for Dr Pepper with Crown Royal. They call it a Royal Flush.

That's funny Jim.. :laughing: Lou

My grandkids do like Dr. Pepper, two bits, if I could mix it with jack or crown I would like it.. but to sweet for me.. Lou

Had it with Crown once and it was actually good!

Under the circumstances, that would be better than a "full house"

I was golfing and had to drive home later. We stopped for "half-time" between holes 9 and 10 and my son told me I should try it, much better than Coke and Crn IMO

 

[Lou66]

Oh I understand now.. So was that like today?.. Lou

I think you folks are being a little tough on Coke. There is not a more universally American product that is sold around the world. Besides, no matter what language, they were all singing America The Beautiful. Just remember that commercials are not about anything but selling product. Like it or not, Coke's customers are not all English speaking Americans, but the dollars spent are greenbacks and end up at the corporate offices in Atlanta, Georgia. Coke has made many commercials with people from all over the world. They have universal appeal, world-over. Now, if they had Glen Beck spewing his version of of things, I'd bet they wouldn't sell nearly as much product, maybe even end up like Billy Beer.

I thought about this today you are right with an exception .. When in Japan sing Japanese .. When in China sing Chinese ... The problem is this is America we all take the back seat and just let things be .. There is no way that coke commercial should have even aired .. It's just not right.

Now that's my opinion and please don't anyone take offense.. But I'm also that guy who tells them to their face .. English speak English in my country .. Geez my wife hates that!!

Dennis I just went down to the bar and fixed a crown 1 1/2 oz,, with 4 oz of Dr Pepper the friendly picker upper with three ice cubes,, carried back up stairs to my computer.. Just had a taste,, IMO it taste like cough syrup.. I will continue to drink it and report back when I finished.. Lou

 

[Lou66]

Well it half gone and for some reason I don’t have that nagging cough anymore.:shocked:. It not bad,, but I will only be having the one,, Lou

 

[Lou66]

Just finished it and I feel alert and awake must be all that caffeine in the Crown and ice.. Reason I said that is because Mike Lunsford singing Honey Hungry and it sound like rock n roll.. I want to get up and dance.:cool2:. but my feet hurt :duh:but I am not coughing,, I better hang up here for tonight and do other things before pi… someone off.:laughing:. Lou

Isn't Dublin Dr Pepper made in Ireland?

Jim;

The Dublin (Texas) Bottling Plant is where Dr. Pepper was first bottled.

Dublin Bottling Works, home of the pure cane sugar soda

It certainly is. You didn't notice the wink?

I wrote this tonight for a Scribbles and Bits Challenge #79,, it was on one of the five senses,, this time it was: smell.:shocked:.

so I called this.. Smell.

what do y’all think Texas..

Crown and Dr Pepper maybe more than a cough syrup Dennis.:laughing:.

:laughing::laughing::laughing:. Lou

Edit what you will Bird :laughing:it will be gone in 24 hours.:thumbsup:. Lou

 

[farmgirl19]

I hope that it stays, Lou! I like it a LOT!

Some people say the only legit purpose of Crown Royal is to make Coke an alcoholic beverage.

I think Lou has it right drinking it straight on the rocks. Especially if it was single malt scotch.

I think I read somewhere recently that there was a dispute with Dr. Pepper over that plant in Dublin so I'm not sure if they even make it there anymore. I thought DP was originated in a pharmacy in Waco years and years ago. I always intended to go to the Dr. Pepper museum but haven't made it by there yet.

The museum/bottling is still in Dublin but they no longer make the real sugar Dublin Dr. Pepper there. They had a dispute with Snapple and settled.

[Lou66]

Look I am not here to start no dispute
Crown is something you wear on your head
Coke is something that you snort
Dr. Pepper is something you give to the grandkids
To get them out of house so you can mess with grandma..
If she making Christmas cookies you know with a lot sugar?..
I think Texas annexed Dublin Ireland when we heard we can make a buck with a Doctor that lived in Waco..
selling peppers..
we thought It was chili peppers,,
we didn't know it was a Dr. Pepper..
our we would have left it in Ireland,,
cause the only pepper we had that tasted like a Doctor was a jalapeno..
hot and cost a lot,,
Anyway he gave up his day job of giving out two aspirins and calling be tomorrow to sell some kind of sweet stuff that don't go well with Crowd..
Just saying I may be wrong this one.. but it feels right after a taste of the good stuff.. coke and crown.
Sorry Dennis and Two Bits just trying to keep the facts right according to Lou.:laughing::laughing::laughing:.. Lou

We are lucky. Nobody can keep the facts straight like Lou! :cool2:

 

[Western]

Who needs facts!! Just run it like the guvment does!!

Lou, I think no matter how you drink crown, the result will be the same:laughing: Maybe like chili with beans or without, still chili.
