Ohio University’s Louis the Weatherman, who stars in my most favorite YouTube of all-time (how have I not linked to this before), gets the Tosh.0 web redemption treatment.

I was hesitant to watch this as I thought it was going to be a frozen drink (which I despise); however, I was pleasantly surprised to find that a Hemingway Daiquiri is actually a drink shaken, not frozen. Now that is something I’ll get behind. I took the liberty of jotting the recipe down.

…

1.5 oz light rum

.75 oz fresh lime juice

.25 oz fresh grapefruit juice

.25 oz maraschino liqueur

…

Add in a shaker. Add ice. Shake. Serve over crushed or no ice, your preference.

WARNING: this is an intense 4 minute video; it made me cry. It will capture you though and you’ll be happy you watched it. It will help remind yourself of how much you do love your dog. Now, I need to go scratch Beau‘s ears.
