2026 Wild Card Game 2: Packers at Bears

PSBC #3, in honor of the NFC #7 seed Green Bay Packers: I’ve long wanted to make a Green Bay cocktail called the Frozen Tundra, so that will never NOT be on the menu (at least, not until the day I finally get to make it.) Obviously there’s a world of Jordan Love puns available, but since it’s likely not an option that will be on the table forever, I’ll lead this year with the Musgrave Love.

PSBC #4, in honor of the NFC #2 seed Chicago Bears: Any time the Bears have made the playoffs in the past, one of my cocktail proposals has always been DAAAAAA Drink. And I remain in no way above using that, because I do genuinely enjoy it. But the turnaround that this team has had under Ben Johnson (the coach) and my lit nerd background have me leaning heavily toward a Ben Jonson (the Renaissance playwright) reference. The Volpone or the Alchemist would probably be the most resonant on that front, while the Devil is an Ass would clearly be the most amusing.
