I could have spent many more hours modeling this but it was a fun exercise to just go through it, despite everything you brought up (which is all accurate).

Hey now, it's basically the adult alcoholic version of a snow-cone. Oh man, why don't we all just start using shredded ice with alcohol infused to make adult snow-cone (yes, this is already a thing and it's just as fantastic as it sounds.

Going on your research dollars on booze thing. We had an experiment this past semester where we used a Gas Chromatograph solely for the purpose of measuring the alcohol content in samples of Seagram's 7 and Black Velvet...and to set some calibration curves but that's beside the point.

Whatever floats your boat. Just pointing out that it's kind of like that argument where you're fighting about running or walking in rain to stay drier but neglecting the hurricane because it's too complex to model.
