Oh, and our top export to China? Soybeans.
The next one is Civilian Aircraft, but how much of that is Boeing packing up and shipping factories to China? That counts as an export, btw.

Tequila Sunrise
"This pretty drink with layers of orange juice and grenadine is delicious on a hot day. The fact that the ratio of juice to tequila is high makes it a good choice for a brunch cocktail."

1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger tequila
3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
ice cubes
1/2 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger grenadine syrup
1 slice orange, for garnish
1 maraschino cherry for garnish

Paloma (cocktail)
TequilaPaloma.JPG
Type
Cocktail
The paloma (Spanish for "dove") is a tequila-based cocktail, most commonly prepared by mixing tequila with a grapefruit-flavored soda such as Fresca, Squirt, or Jarritos and served on the rocks with a lime wedge. Optionally, the glass may also be rimmed with salt.
Alternatively, the grapefruit soda can be replaced with fresh white or red grapefruit juice (jugo de toronja), club soda (sugar optional), and fresh-squeezed lime juice.

The Matador is a tequila-based cocktail. Less widely known than the margarita, its structure is similarly simple, with three primary ingredients: silver or blanco tequila, pineapple juice, and lime juice. Its chief coupling of pineapple and a single spirit resembles a Jackhammer, a variant of the Screwdriver which substitutes pineapple juice for orange juice to mix with vodka. Matadors are often presented differently, either in a cocktail (or martini) glass or a champagne flute.

Ppl, Jose Cuervo sucks!
Pls, start with 1800 and then, move up from that level to the Cabo Wabo and others.
Cuervo is trash; Hornitos smells and Sauza is a high grade of sewage.
All you need is $5-$7 extra dollars and you can transition that 750 ml bottle from Cuervo to 1800. Please do it; you won't regret your decision.

You are right... there is great tequila and bad tequila. I buy both, I admit it. On some occasions, you have to serve the cheap stuff, and on others I drink the finest.

I don't know about you but I'm not in school anymore.
I will never bring a bottle of Cuervo, to a gathering of ppl whom I care about. I always start with an 1800 Silver and that's the ultimate mixer/base, for any gathering.
Sure for my own shelf, Cabo Wabo Silver is the standard but I'm not sharing that with everyone in the world.

Cabo Wabo Silver
Thanks for the tip Rin!
Really do appreciate it!
Yup, the cheap stuff was what I would buy in college... No Mo' Cheap stuff... from now on, we're buying lower middle class stuff.
Rin, if I ever can invite you to a party, you should know you may want to BYOB.
I think that jug next to the radiator fluid is supposed to be tequila... who wants another drink?
J/K! :)

So sad, now the Russians are going to have to drink even more of their own vodka.

Guys....
Russia is supposed to be a advanced country with their space programs etc.
Most of their exports are:
Natural resources, which take no brains to produce.
Arms, which kill people.
Imperialism, which no one wants.
What good have they ever done for mankind?
Guys......
You keep blaming America as being worse, but that does not prove or disprove the above assertions.
Either show why the above is wrong, or admit I'm right.

And Strategist, no one is more imperialistic than the USA. Are you paid to post your drivel?
I should get paid, it would be money well spent.

If you aren't being paid quit being a lapdog for our evil imperialism throughout the world. Who is doing regime change? The zionist/neocons in the US like Cheney are doing the regime change. So stop supporting plain evil. Nuland, Secretary of State said we spent 5 billion to disrupt the Ukraine.
Her husband is Robert Kagan, cofounder of PNAC with William Kristol of Faux News. They predicted a new Pearl Harbor one full year before 9/11. I read it on their website myself.
America being an imperialist country is a myth, get over it. Some regimes need to be changed for a better world. If a regime change results in a step towards democracy I would wholeheartedly support it, and so should everyone else.

We should also ban the import of Russians, since they seem to like to annex anyplace that Russians happen to move to.

Unless they have a lot of money, as that would turn them into good American capitalists.

Officials Can't Think of Another Russian Product America Uses
As the United States tightens economic sanctions against Russia, the Obama administration announced today an import ban on Russian vodka effective immediately.
In a press conference today, Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters that he decided on the move to punish Moscow for its invasion of Crimea.
“Vodka in stock may be sold and purchased but no new vodka may enter the country,†he declared. “The penalty for importing and selling Russian vodka will be $15,000 fine and up to two years in prison.
“Can you think of another product we buy from them? Just one? We can’t. That’s why the president had no choice but to ban the import of vodka. Maybe in Europe they use more Russian goods but I have no idea what they make. Of course they produce misery and corruption but we can’t help that.
“We don’t use their oil and gas. That’s why we have Canada and they sure as hell aren’t going to take over anything. They send over mediocre ice hockey players but once again, that’s why we have Canada.â€
Vice President Joseph Biden, who was upset over the ban of his favorite vodka, spoke scarcasstically on the issue. “We need to apply as much pressure as possible. It has worked with Iran, North Korea, and Cuba so I’m sure it will work with Russia.â€
Vodka, it’s what’s for dinner
Vodka consumers in the U.S. are stunned by the revelations that their favorite alcohol will be banned.Fox News host Bill O'Reilly, however, was ecstatic with the news. “Finally, an Obama policy worth implementing. Drink whiskey like a real American. None of that girly vodka crap. I’m glad Obama is finally doing something patriotic.â€
Vodka exports accounts for the second largest export for Russia after natural gas. The nation’s political elite does not seem concerned about the economic impact of the ban, however. Putin’s chief of staff Sergei Ivanov told The Moscow Times, the morning “We make the best vodka in the world. It is too good for the Americans; they deserve to drink piss.â€
The U.S. says it may lift the ban if Russia pulls back their troops and recognizes Ukraine’s sovereignty over Crimea.
“We’ll also be open to re-establishing trade of vodka if they agree to give us back Edward Snowden, we just want to talk to him,†an inebriated Kerry told reporters later that night outside of his local D.C. bar. “Just talk to that little prick, that’s all.â€
