Actually, the drink itself is called a "Hand Grenade". I don't know about the sugary part since I've never had one. It's a specialty drink of a certain bar on Bourbon Street. You buy it, then you're expected to walk around the French Quarter with it in your hands while sucking the concoction from a straw. Nowadays, I try not to drink while walking down the street. Public deterioration is only attractive in the young, and then only for a short duration.
More than you know, Rick. Have you ever seen our sidewalks. Booze is the only way to maneuver them? I still believe that if I'd only had a snoot full on the Fourth of July, I never would have tumbled into that hole.

Yellow hand grenade - with a straw and a smile. Looks sugary.

Being allowed to drink booze while walking down the street strikes me as the height of civilization. The key word here is "walking"...
