Drinking Alone

Alcohol related advice so good, that if you take heed, you won't need anyone else around to enjoy the experience... You can even be alone in your parents house, where you are "temporarily" living, while you "save money".

For our Gringo readers out there who may be unfamiliar, this weeks tip is for you to start drinking Argentina's wonderful Malbec red wine. We were recently informed by our friend Chris Cain, that Malbec was invented in Hungary (Cain is a huge nerd), but it was undoubtedly perfected in the Andean foothills of Western Argentina. This full-bodied and deep colored red, displays blackberry and plum aromas combined with toasty notes from oak ageing. It can be enjoyed with grilled meats, cheeses, pasta or in straight-from-the-bottle-pulls while looking at Internet porn.
