Red Dog Mugs
Description: This is Rob Corddry’s Russian energy drink from Hot Tub Time Machine. Here he describes the ingredients. The incredibly deep use of Chernobly as the movie’s core plot device at first made it my top choice for converting to real-life product: Corddry spills Chernobly on the hot tub controls which is how they go back to WinterFest 1986, then some Red Dawn obsessed party adversaries steal their last can and they can’t get back until they recover it. Meanwhile the Chernobyl nuclear disaster occurred in real-life 1986. And as we all know from Back To The Future, time travel won’t work without some sort of nuclear-level energy. A deep plot device indeed.
Description: Also called Ainu-ken or Ainu dog, this hardy medium sized breed was developed by the indigenous people of Japan after immigrants brought similar dogs during the Jomon Period pre 300BC. The modern name Hokkaido comes from the prefecture they were raised in. Like many Japanese breeds, these versatile canines feature a curly tail, pricked ears, and a dense double-layer coat perfect for cold weather. The Hokkaido was traditionally used to hunt large game like bears, but have been used as search and rescue dogs and companion pets throughout the centuries. The Do-ken is a beloved Japanese institution and extremely rare outside the island nation.
