What is your drink of choice?
I love beer. Although it has so much salt and calories it is my favorite. I love Corona and Bud Ice. My second would be mixed drinks like Margaritas and Strawberry daiquiris. What is your drink of choice?

Brian 01-12-2008, 06:24 PM I do not like beer. I have tried to like it but I can't finish a bottle. I prefer the fancier drinks and malt beverages like Mike's Hard Lemonade.
Daiquiris and margaritas are good I also like sex on the beaches.

80s_Fan 01-12-2008, 08:08 PM I will have a strawberry daquiri please; I love those so much....:liplick:
coffield3 01-12-2008, 08:18 PM Here in england it's over 18 to drink, although i think it should be over 21 here also.
PZelda 01-12-2008, 08:32 PM 22 yo female here. :D I'm all about imported beer, baby. I prefer dark beer, altho I will also have light beer, provided it is also imported. My poison of choice is Heineken Dark Lager. Mmmm, I could go for a dark Heineken right now. It's been MONTHS since I had one. :eek:
TripperFan 01-12-2008, 09:01 PM Pina Coladas and Bailey's Irish Cream on the rocks (oooo the calories though)
Mixed drink of choice - Southern Comfort and Coke (or Crown Royal & Coke)
Bacardi also put out an amazing strawberry cooler smoothie thing that went down like soda pop!
Not big on beer or scotch, bourbons, etc..

Dutabi84 01-12-2008, 09:25 PM I've developed a taste for dark beers. I don't like many mixed drinks, but one I do like is the Long Island.

I just remembered that we had Guinnesses together for dinner on my b-day. :lol: I'd forgotten about that... you have excellent taste, young man. :D

Best thread EVER!
:lol:
It's been a while since we've talked abut booze, and i'm still a Heineken man.
Not a fan of the Heineken Light, which every bar in New York City seems to try to shove down my throat - sorry, i'll stick with the original.

Brian Damage 01-12-2008, 09:58 PM Samuel Adams...Best Beer EVER!!!
LuLu Rogers 01-12-2008, 10:09 PM Coke and Jack Daniels! :D
*Happy Face* 01-12-2008, 10:25 PM Imported beer drinker!,I prefer Corona,Dos Equis or Tecate.
All with salt and lime of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another drink i've been sampling lately is a Black Velvet which is Guinness mixed with Cider.
A traditional Black Velvet is Guiness and Champagne, so the variation I have been drinking is also known as a "poor man's Black Velvet."
It's basically two drinks in one because the Guinness stays on top of the cider (giving the glass a cool two tone effect) but without fully blending together.
Mmmmm-mmm!
;)
Mikado 01-12-2008, 11:18 PM I am a teetotaller, but, I hate tea & coffee......I prefer milk , fruit juice, or A&W diet root beer
Dutabi84 01-12-2008, 11:26 PM I just remembered that we had Guinnesses together for dinner on my b-day. :lol: I'd forgotten about that... you have excellent taste, young man. :D
We did, and it was really good. There is this restaurant here called Rock Bottom Brewery (there is also one in Minneapolis). They brew several different types of their own beer, and they have a really good dark beer that I'll drink if I stop by.
Ireneparalegal 01-12-2008, 11:28 PM I am over 21...twice. :lol:
I love me a good wine cooler or a margarita on the rocks with lots of SALT!!!! Hey now...;) A shot of 1800 Tequila is a nice touch to a festive mood.
Maybe a Corona with salt and lemon. But rarely is beer my choice of drink. Usually if there is nothing else, I may.

The Poor Man's Black Velvet is also known as a Snakebite. I'll order one whenever I'm at an Old Chicago restaurant.
Very good drink. :thumbsup:
Ireneparalegal 01-12-2008, 11:32 PM Two years ago I went out with my niece, my daughter and some of their friends. We were drinking margaritas when this gentlemen sent over the barmaid and told us whatever we wanted, he would pay for it. Alrighty then. I had me a Golden Cadillac. ;) I went over to thank him for our free drinks and he told me he was hoping to get my attention. Sorry dude, I am already taken, but thanx for the drinks! :cheers:
MonarC 01-12-2008, 11:53 PM :lol: @ Irene
Number 9 Dream 01-12-2008, 11:57 PM I love amaretto and coke (hell, amaretto by itself is awesome), fuzzy navels, and various flavors of Smirnoff (watermelon and grape are my favorites).
I absolutely HATE beer...blechhhh, NEVER could stomach the stuff!
catlover79 01-12-2008, 11:58 PM I don't drink myself. When I turned 21 I did enjoy the occasional Mike's Hard Lemonade. The last time I had a drink was a glass of champagne at my sister's wedding - which was in 2003!!!
catlover79 01-13-2008, 12:00 AM Daiquiris and margaritas are good I also like sex on the beaches.
Do you also like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain?? :lol: Sorry, Sara, I couldn't resist!!
I like Margarita's too, but I seldom drink them anymore. Every now & then during the summer I'll drink a Michelobe Light.
Brieannas21 01-13-2008, 12:49 AM Margarita with extra lime on the side, Mudslide :liplick: I could drink those all day long. Smirnoff Ice Watermelon, green apple are my favs

snl 70s show fan 01-13-2008, 12:58 AM i hardly drink at all but i will have a pina colada once in a while and yesi like pina coladas and i once actully got caught in a rainstorm one night after drinking one
dawsongirl 01-13-2008, 01:04 AM Honestly, I have not tasted an alcohol that I could drink more than a sip of. puke: Only thing I've ever been able to stomach was wine coolers and even at that, I only drank maybe 1/4 of the bottle.

I love wine coolers! Actually, I don't drink that much alcohol though.
Karen64 01-13-2008, 01:54 AM Bud Dry beer and Franzia wine (the wine in the box) are my favorites!
BTW, anyone over the age of 40 remember "Malt Duck"?
PZelda 01-13-2008, 03:47 AM We did, and it was really good. There is this restaurant here called Rock Bottom Brewery (there is also one in Minneapolis). They brew several different types of their own beer, and they have a really good dark beer that I'll drink if I stop by.
I have to agree... The little plastic thing they put in their cans REALLY help the flavor! YUM! I remember we had a discussion about that, because I shook my can at one point and was like "what the hell is in there?", and they had info about the plastic things on the side of the can. :lol:
Funny story about that... I'd had an early birthday dinner a few days before we got together (this was on the 12th of August), since everybody was going to be working on my b-day. We went to the uptown Drink location in Minneapolis, and had the dinner on their outdoors patio on the roof. I ordered a Guinness from the tap, and got it. But not even a minute after I'd gotten my Guinness, a ****ing bug landed in it AND died. Yeahhhh, that was great. So the server (a really good friend of my sister's) took away the cup and brought back a new cup for me... much better. :D
Hmm... Rock Bottom Brewery. Gotta have to check that out the next time I'm in Minneapolis. Sounds like my kinda place!

Actually, a snakebite is cider mixed with lager beer, but I do know of some bars do refer to a Snakebite as a Black Velvet.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snakebite_(beer_cocktail)
A snakebite is a good drink. It can also be served with ice.
As much as i like cider, i try not to drink too much of it. It does a number on my stomach. All those damn apples i guess.

Isn't that stuff something? The first time I tried it, I didn't like it (it was a Sunday morning restaurant meeting it was served warm - yech).
We got into some B52s a few years back and then the Bailey's on its own and I loved it! It's like melted chocolate popsicles with a kick! ;)

Night and day - I'll chill the brandy snifter ahead in the freezer, then drop a couple of cubes in and let it sit for at least 15 minutes before I start drinking it to really get it chilled. There's the giant bottle in the fridge right now - my brother always gets me one at Christmas. ;)
MonarC 01-13-2008, 08:36 PM Can I have some? :D

I don't do tequila anymore. Too many bad memories.
Same goes with vodka, gin, Jack Daniels, and any kind of schnapps.
I drink a lot.

According to Wik:

The Black Velvet, also known as a "Velvet Hammer"[citation needed], is a beer cocktail made from stout beer (often Guinness) and white, sparkling wine, traditionally champagne.
The drink was first created by the bartender of the Brooks's Club of London in 1861, to mourn the passing of Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's Prince Consort [1]. It is supposed to symbolise the black or purple cloth armbands worn by mourners.
The Black Velvet was the favorite cocktail of the dapper Jazz Age New York City mayor Jimmy Walker.[citation needed]
Not sure if Tom is into jazz that much, but he' in good company.
I think there's also a Black Velvet rye (Canadian whiskey).
