How to make a Green Choopy

OBJECTIVE:
Students will bear the pain of drinking drinks created by a non-drinker, while being thankful that we can share in this esoteric experience.

MATERIALS:
1 part vodka
1 part scotch
Green food coloring
Beverage holder

PROCEDURE:
1) Mix all ingredients togther in your favorite beverage holder.
2) Prepare for the worst.
3) Drink it all up.
4) Thank your Brothers for their friendship.

ASSESSMENT:
Students will have met the objective if they can see that the true test is not in drinking a Green Choopy, but that the experience transcends all human limitations.
