The Yankees are World Series Champions and post-Sox season depression has more than set in. Sometimes the best cure is to eat and maybe even drink your feelings. So here are some Boston Sox themed drinks/eats to get you through the FREEZING Boston winter to Spring.
First the EATs. Because you need something in your stomach before the drinks and these are a step up from a Fenway Frank:
McGreevy’s Beckett Burger: He might not have been the ace we needed in the post season, but this burger will not fail your stomach. McGreevy’s is Boston’s first Sports Bar. The Beckett Burger is one pound, nine ounces (for Beckett’s number 19), of beef, buns, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles. Win or lose you get a t-shirt, and part of the proceeds go to Beckett’s charity. I personally did it with one other person and it was delicious.
UBurger: Located in Kenmore Square (right by Fenway!) or on Comm. Ave, UBurger claims to be “Above All Burgers” with several Red Sox themed patties like the Big Papi Burger. They also have some awesome Frappes.
JP Licks: For dessert, pick up the Green Monster Sundae (comes in a plastic red sox hat) or Cherry Garciaparra/Ortiz icecream [...]

We love our dirty water, and now the rest of the world will too. Absolut has come out with now three special edition vodka’s in tribute to the USA’s “most distinguished cities.” And while in an absolute world, we would have been the first, (Boston comes after New Orleans, and Los Angeles) guess who doesn’t have one yet? NEW YORK. So, take that, Yankees. You may have the AL, but wheres your special edition vodka?
The bottle resembles our Green Monster, with a green wall backdrop. The words on the bottle read:
“In a city rich with monuments commemorating a nation, the one monument that stands above all others is a dented green wall, 37 feet tall, 240 feet long, and some 310 feet from home plate down the left-field line.”
And while it doesn’t taste like a Fenway Frank [...]
