This song is all about the Brass Monkey cocktail, a mix of rum, vodka, and orange juice over ice - a college party favorite. However, the Beastie Boys aren't just limited to this drink, they also reference martinis, Moet champagne, and Chivas Regal whiskey in the song, all seemingly paid for by their producer Rick Rubin (“Double R foots the bill most definitely”) . #beastieboys #brassmonkey #licensedtoill #nostalgia #vlmtl | The Vinyl Lounge
