Honestly, the kind of news we needed to end the year on.
In addition to rum, moonshine and peanut butter whiskey, this raccoon at a Virginia liquor store also got into some vodka and eggnog. If you have not tried it, peanut butter whiskey “is excellent,” a PR manager for the store said. The raccoon apparently agreed. trib.al/XurZIQv
