Alcohol
i just wouldnt want you to take that shot and get deathly sick in front of the man. that wouldnt be pleasant for you. no disrespect . i understand its a family tradition.believe me i know from experience with that one. but when you talk about a shot . if its tequila, whiskey . id just hate to see you take a hard shot and you get sick in front of everyone. id do like others suggested. id try it at home first and see how well it goes down... i know ive not had surgery and i to love shots , but those first couple . go down like a firecracker . just be ok...
