AGUA de SEVILLA

100ml Whiskey

(Whisky, or whiskey, refers to a broad category of alcoholic beverages that are distilled from grains and aged in oak casks.)

150ml Cognac

(Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a brandy, which is produced in the region surrounding the town. It must be made from at least 90% Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche, or Colombard grapes. The rest of the cognac can consist of ten selected grapes. However, most cognac is made from Ugni Blanc only. It must be distilled twice in copper pot stills and aged at least 2 and 1/2 years in French oak barrels in order to be called cognac.)

150ml Cointreau

(Cointreau (pronounced [kwan'-tro]) is a brand of triple sec liqueur, and produced in Saint-Barthélemy-d’Anjou, a suburb of Angers, France. Cointreau sources its oranges from all over the world, usually Spain and Haiti.)

700ml Pineapple Juice

(Self-explanatory.)

900ml Cava

(Cava is the name of a type of white or pink sparkling wine, produced mainly in the Penedès region in Catalonia, (the Catalan Countries), 40 km to the south west of Barcelona. Its name is derived from the Catalan word for cellar.)

Coco Lopez, optional

(Coco Lopez is a Puerto Rican coconut product which is used in many popular drinks.)

Enjoy!

THE QUESTION IS WHAT THOSE IT MEAN A BOTTLE OF WATER WITH POPCORN SEED’S IN IT… (BLACK MAGIC)

ONE OF MY FRIENDS FUND IT UNDER HES BED AND HE THINGS SOME ONE IS DOING BLACK MAGIC ON HIM…LOL

It could mean that some one does not want him going out. They don’t want him to be with any one else. Tell him to take it some where that has running water, a stream, river, canal. If he can not find any of those then use the toilet. While he is dumping the water tell him to say that he is returning this Mal to the person who sent it. That no one can touch him because he believes In God Almighty. He returns it 10 million times more stronger back to the person who sent it. Tell him not to eat any pop corn from some one he knows that might have a crush on him. Be careful this is not a laughing matter. I am involved in Brujeria……

What does "Like water for chocolate" or "Como agua para chocolate" mean?

September 29, 2009 - 7:45 am 7 Comments

I know it has something to do with the cooking process of chocolate and how that relates to love and life.

In Mexico "chocolate" is both the candy and the beverage. Traditionally "chocolate" (beverage) is made with very hot water so the "chocolate" candy can dissolve (traditional chocolate candy used to make the beverage is very, very hard).

"Como agua para chocolate" it’s an idiom, used to describe a very "hot" situation or problem. It could be a hot discussion, a hot relation, anything that implies a lot of passion.

In the book relations and situation are "como agua para chocolate", that means hot, or passionate.

What’s the meaning of "medirle el agua a los tamales"? Mexican?

A friend would like me to find out and send an appropriate response? Or just the meaning is fine, Thanks!
again thanks alot everyone. Got the gist of it now.

This is an old saying used by grandmothers.

The literal meaning is ‘to measure the water for preparing tamales’.

It is a way of saying you will to calculate things by eye or by the way you feel about something, using empiricism emphasizing the role of experience, especially sensory perception.
Good luck!

agua oxigenada will whiten your teeth, but u must not drink it and it should not touch your tongue since it may hurt it :) be careful with that. plus it wont clean them instantly, its a whole process.
