In the U.S. , only .0177 percent of the populationlives past 100 year . And we ’re somewhat certain every single one of them has been asked by a journalist about their “ secret ” to a long life . Since every one of them has been doing something their whole life , it logically follows that by mimicking that behaviour we can extend our life too . That ’s just physics .
Gertrude Weaver from Arkansas , for example , attributed her long lifeto simply being a kind soul . Jessie Gallan , 109 , who live in Aberdeen , Scotland , thanks the lack of menin her liveliness for her good wellness . New Yorker Duranord Veillard , 108 , doesfive to seven pushupsevery morning .
We ’re not much for being tolerant , avoiding man or doing use here at Supercall , but luckily for us , most other centenarian attribute their length of service to a food or drinking . Because we are mavin , we compile those ingredients and created a single cocktail from them that will make you subsist forever .
Behold , the philosopher’s stone of life . We trust you will use its king for good .
Ingredient One: Miller High Life
Agnes Fenton from New Jersey drinksthree Miller High Lifes a day , per her doc ’s orders . She understandably has a cool Doctor of the Church than Elizabeth Sullivan .
The low 110 - year - previous does n’t conceive anything of her age , shrug off her most recent natal day as “ just another day ” to her . You go , Agnes . make for on the beer .
Ingredient Two: Dr. Pepper
“ Every doctor that sees me state [ Dr. Pepperwill ] kill you , but they die and I do n’t . So there must be a mistake somewhere , ” says Elizabeth Sullivan , a 104 - year - old Texan who drank the stuff daily for her entire life , agree toCBSDFW .
We were reasonably sure we ’d take all 23 of Dr. Pepper ’s flavor to get the proper puissance in our cocktail . We broke into Dr. Pepper ’s headquarters and slip the mystical recipe , but then we nonplus tired and did n’t source any of them . Turns out they ’re all already in every can of Dr. Pepper . INTO THE ELIXIR WITH YOU .
Ingredient Three: A Drop of Whiskey
Grace Jones of Worcestershire , England does n’t consider herself a imbiber , per se , yet she hasa drop curtain of whiskey every nightbefore bed . She claims she feel as good today as she did in her sixty . She turned 109 last September . We ’re sell . Except for that whole “ drop ” part . We are aim for immortality here , better slush in a bunch .
Ingredient Four: Gin
Mabel Jacksondrank sixGin & Tonicsa day , “ two at lunchtime , one at tea time with a biscuit and then three more during the evening while I do my knit . ” To hold open you the math , that ’s approximately 4,264 bottles of gin . We have a tactile sensation we ’d get along with Mabel . We take over that it was the gin that gave Mabel ’s G&Ts their tycoon , because assuming is what scientists do . In it goes .
Final Ingredient: Sushi Garnish
We ’re no stranger to puttingsushiin cocktail here at Supercall . What can we say ? Sometimes we do n’t even cognize we ’re doing skill .
Misao Okawa turn 117 last March and credits her long life tosleep and sushi . So we ’re garnishing our swallow with a sushi roll . No need to get fancy , just drop ‘ em in .
And there you have it . It ’s a simple rule : cotton gin + whiskey + Dr. Pepper + Miller High Life + sushi axial rotation = immortality . We ’ve been hold two a day for the last few weeks and we feel terrific .
Some have made sport of our methods , saying things like “ that ’s stupid , ” “ you people are severe , ” and “ why does it smell like Dr. Pepper and Pisces the Fishes in here ? ” All we have to say is cynics never changed the worldly concern . We ’ll see who ’s laughing when the 23rd Century rolls around .
