This is what peace and democracy are all about. Booze is one of the few things in the world that can bring people together. You could take two mortal enemies and if they sit down together and have a beer there’s a good chance they could talk things out and become regular pals. Tom and Jerry. Russell Westbrook and Joel Embiid. Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un. This is what makes the world such a beautiful place. Now let’s take a look at some of these cocktails.

Peace Negroniations. That seems like a racist joke of some kind but I’m not quite sure. Regardless this cocktail could be the one perfect first one that Trump and Un have when they sit down to talk. They are definitely both guys who like fruity drinks so that seems like the perfect fit to me.
Next one:
The Rock It Man. Now, this is already an interesting title because it is obviously a take on “Rocket Man” which was Trump’s nickname for Kim Jong Un. And I am all in on these peace meetings, but if we’re being honest I don’t think it was exactly an affectionate nickname from Trump. This might be the cocktail that breaks down peace negotiations between the two nations. If Kim Jong figures out that cocktail exists he might lose his shit.
The final, and my personal favorite drink:
The Kim Jong Ale. This is just perfect. Nothing fancy, just a good ole fashion brew, a near perfect pun, and a little joke with it being a “sour” ale. I would love to sit outside on a patio and slug down 4-5 Kim Jong Ales on a nice summer afternoon while thinking about conquering the planet. Peaceful, tranquil, insatiable, jackhammer are a few words that come to mind when I think of this lovely brew.
The best part is the managers from the bar said they legitimately expect Trump and Un to come to the bar after their negotiations are over. Personally, I think that’s exactly the kind of energy we need in this world.
P.S. You can also get a Trump or Un style haircut at local Vietnamese barbershops. These guys are really going all in on this Summit and I love it. Also, I think I would look fantastic with the Kim Jong cut if I’m being honest.
