Bull sharks have been found up the Mississippi River as far north as Illinois, and one was found 2,500 miles up the Amazon. Lake Nicaragua is full of bull sharks, known locally as Nicaragua sharks. The Zambezi River in Africa is home to many bull sharks, which are called Zambezi sharks there. After Hurricane Katrina, large numbers of bull sharks were reportedly seen swimming in Lake Pontchartrain. Bull shark moms tend to give birth in coastal lagoons, river mouths, and other estuaries.
The whiskey sour is the fried-egg sandwich of American mixology: simple, dull, reliable in a pinch. It's nourishing, all right, but not a drink for cocktail time, that hour of luminous blue when the more decorative and flush sectors of civilization exchange witticisms over icy glasses of invigorating drink. Uh-uh.
Jack Daniels, for example, says âTennessee Sour Mash Whiskey,â meaning that (by law) the entire Whiskey was made in the state of Tennessee, and that some of the mash used to make one batch is added to the next batch (thatâs what âsourâ means). Jim Beamâs label identifies the bourbon as a Sour Mash Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. What this means, is that Jim Beam is not blended with other whiskeys, that the mash contains 51% corn, some of the mash from the previous batch is added to the next one, and that the entire product was made within the state of Kentucky. (The label also says âThe Worldâs Finest Bourbonâ)
