Serious question: is 3pm too early for a cocktail? My office is going out for an early holiday dinner. The place makes nice cocktails but I'm wondering if 3 pm is too early to have a cocktail. Thoughts?

    If you wake up and have a drink first thing in the morning, that might be too early for a cocktail.

    ...but 3pm generally starts happy hour at a lot of places! Enjoy!

    as long as there is celery inserted into the glass. Then you're OK.

    Where are you??? I wanna go! :laugh:

    eta: Sorry - you said serious question...

    I'd say it depends on whether you have to go BACK to the office to work or not. If you are all cutting out early for a party - and won't be heading back until tomorrow - I say go for it!

    No...as far as I'm concerned anything after 12pm is acceptable. :drinker:
