Naming Conventions

First, a drink of chocolate made of cocoa beans harvested from the jungled banks of the Fraser River after the rainy season. Next, a distillate of fermented almonds pulped by the elbows of Richardien monks in their Laurentian arena. Then Skipper Bailey's unique solution to Newfoundland's oversupply of Irishmen. Last, the sweet essence of untundra mint harvested by the Hawaiian-shirted Inuit of the ever-warming Arctic.

Combine these liquid treasures and what else could such a drink be called?

    Canadian bucks, mikey. They even call 'em Loonies. I think they're worth like a quarter, American.

    The Canadian should be bacon, maple syrup, and beaver squeezins.

    It must be named that because you Canadians are so sweet and warm.

    so sweet and warm.
    ...also overpriced and mildly alcoholic.

    Are Canadians over-priced? I'm ok with mildly-alcoholic.

    Warning to the youngsters: Always check the ripeness of the beaver before squeezing it. Nothing worse than an over ripe squeezed beaver.
