The image features a plain white background with a text overlay. The text is in a casual, handwritten font and reads "But first WHISKEY." The word "WHISKEY" is emphasized by being larger and bolder than the rest of the text. The phrase is a play on the popular motivational quote "But first coffee," which is often used to express the need for a cup of coffee before starting one's day. Here, the phrase humorously suggests that whiskey should be the first choice of beverage to start the day.
