The Quad Cities’ Favorite Quarantini During The Pandemic
🎶"Wasted away again in quarantine"🎶 If you didn't sing that to the tune of Jimmy Buffett's 'Margaretville', then go back and try again.
If the past year didn't make you want to drink more than your normal annual alcohol intake, then you have a lot more willpower than I do. My wife and I found many ways to have fun while staying home, but one of my favorites was trying to create fun cocktails that you would get at bars in the QC. We own a book of over 500 cocktails and we had a blast trying new things and making them. I'm not going to lie, I got pretty good at making a Cosmopolitan...
A new survey has come out showing each state's 'quarantini' of choice during the pandemic. Treatment4Addiction.com, a provider of resources and information relating to addiction treatment, conducted a poll of 3,500 respondents to find each state's favorite cocktail of choice throughout the pandemic.
Some key facts they found during their survey include:
- Nearly 1 in 5 drinkers say they have noticed their alcohol tolerance has increased since the start of lockdown
- 24% of participants say they admit that spending more time indoors has relaxed their views on drinking alcohol more often
