Booze For Your Health
By Dan Friedman July 31, 2009
Working at the Forward Confederated News Empire I get a lot of press releases. Most are tedious beyond belief, some are worth following up and the remaining few are fascinating for the same reason that ornithopters are fascinating: They’re patently great ideas that are totally doomed.
This one that I just received fits fairly and squarely into the last category.
I wanted to introduce you to Lotus Vodka—the first vodka chock full of your daily dose of Vitamins! Lotus Vodka has some great holiday cocktails so please let me know if you are working on any upcoming holiday entertaining stories.
… Think the Vitamin Water of Vodka.
So, in honor of the imminent Shabbas, I wanted to suggest to the folks at Manischewitz and Palwin that they research a Manischewitz Mega or a Palwin Plus, including your daily Vitamin C and weekly fiber. What better way to usher in the Sabbath bride?
(This journalist has not received any goods or services from any of abovementioned companies, but has taken his vitamins and, let’s just say, doesn’t need any more fiber this week).
It’s our birthday and we’re still celebrating!
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news.
This week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
As a nonprofit newsroom, reader donations make it possible for us to do this work. Support independent, agenda-free Jewish journalism and our board will match your gift in honor of our birthday!
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
