Talk:Yorsh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article can obviously use expansion, but it is just as important as many of the other cocktail and alcoholic beverage articles. Granted it results in a mere 37,000 search hits (not all of them about this drink), although the spelling is sometimes different—this is a result largely of the English bias. I do not know how to spell this in Cyrillic, but yorsh is very important in Russia and Russian-influenced areas. Probably the #1 "mixed drink."
- In Russia, mixing vodka with anything else is considered a waste, unless the mixer is beer, which produces a fearsome beverage known as yorsh. New York Times
- In order to spare the trouble of carrying two bottles, dedicated drinkers can prepare a fatal formula by mixing vodka and beer in those infamous 2.5 liter bottles of brewski. This acquired-taste mix is called yorsh and has been known to send 250 pound soldiers into a deep coma. AskMen.com
