Caribbean/South America Targets?

[swaghauler]

THIS!!!-The coffee, not so much the beer. For as much as I like a good Red Stripe with shrimp or mahi, one could homebrew pretty much anywhere other than the polar ice caps. In fact, local brews would pretty much be it given the inability to transport beer effectively in a hot climate (there was a reason why I discovered African beer in HOA, that is, Miller Light does not respond well to being shipped from the US and then sitting out in 120 degree heat for weeks on end before going into the cooler at Camp Lemmonier).

HOWEVER, it is my understanding that growing coffee beans requires a specific climate that does not seem to exist in much of the US. If I was a local powerbroker with aspirations of being the President of the Texas Republic and I wanted to show that our Republic is the future of civilization, reintroducing coffee to a populace that has gone several years without it would be a big feather in my cap. Enough to pay others to kill for.

I'm a teetotaler...where do you find cold Pepsi or Root Beer in T2K

Probably Israel - they love soda there and I dont remember them getting nuked at all during the war - also France but only Coke, Coke Light (i.e. diet Coke) and Orangeina

You can make root beer easily enough. Both of my children did this as a project in grade school. Tasted all right when properly aged.

Cold enough might be a challenge....

Actually, the "Cold enough" question brings to mind the only good point about Howling Wilderness. Given a few sailing ships, New England can go back into the ice business, cutting it out of lakes, and hauling ice down south.

They probably don't need to sing while doing so, a la Frozen, though.
