Wild Turkey & Cola?!?!?

Just had some Aussies here astounded that they can’t buy their favorite American drink here. Are these for export only? I’ve never seen any…


Hell yeah. I drank that when I was 16.

From a CAN or did you mix it yourself?

Back then, the cans were made of tin…and Wild Turkey was made of actual turkeys

Mixed.

True about the cans, Frenchbread. Not so much the turkeys.

Evidently both cans and 500ml bottles of that are huge in Australia. One of the guys says that’s pretty much all he drinks and he wanted to take some to a party so he didn’t have to drink weak American beer or any kind of wine (which I’m pretty sure he thinks is for sissies)…

As an Aussie now living in New York, I can attest to the popularity of “UDL’s” in Australia. Check out the range available at Dan Murphys: http://danmurphys.com.au/spirits-mixers/premix-drinks

Jim Beam/Jack Daniels also have premixed cola and some other flavors, available in the US. Pete didn’t mention the Wild Turkey to me but he was telling me how Ouzo & Coke is a big bar drink over there too. Now I just don’t like the idea because I’m not a licorice/anise fan but, Ouzo & Coke? Really? Bourbon I can understand…
