So if its not about food...

sunshyne by sunshyneOG 2004 · Aug 13, 2004 · 332 views

its about drinks. I find myself ordering the same things over and over. Typically, I order from the following short list:

Georgia Tea
Woo Woo
Sicilian Kiss
Gin and Ginger
Gin Martini up with an olive
Margarita on the rocks
Red Devil
Any draft ale

Unless the place has a drink menu, in which case, I might see something interesting and try it.

So how about you? What's your poison? Any suggestions?

I like the drink of agent WD40 Dick Steele: "dry Manoli and Roussos on the rocks, stirred not beaten, with a twist of lemon, in chilled glasses not frozen, and with two curly little straws"

dry martini. three measures of Gordon's; one of vodka; half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it over ice, and add a thin slice of lemon peel.

tesoro #18 tesoroOG 2001

comocazi! (sp?) they're nice & tart and yummy.

has anyone tried the Wine Freezers you get at the grocery store? it's a powered mix stuff that you add wine to and freeze, and it's like a wine slushy...it is sooo darn good!

juicymango #17 juicymangoOG 2003

I found out this weekend that "the custom" in Poland is to drink vodka straight. Niiice. My genetic roots are .. soaked.. in vodky...

socalgal #17.1 socalgalOG 2003

LOL

my last trip to vegas my friends hubby and her friends hubby and brother were making me do vodka shots.

fivezero #17.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

the rest of that story is why they say, "what happens in vegas--stays in vegas."

juicymango #16 juicymangoOG 2003

wow I'm the most boring person alive, all i ever drink really is Bacardi and Diet Coke. Or shots of Jager. Or. .. hmm yeah that's pretty much it. Beer sometimes but I dont really like beer.

It's prolly cos I very rarely go to bars and such and I do NOT feel like making this schmancy stuff at home haha

I don't even know what half of it is

fivezero #16.1 fivezeroOG 2003

bacardi... and cola. it gets the job done.

juicymango #16.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

oh i also like those lemon shots, what are they.. lemondrops? vodka followed by a sugary lemon. Yeah. Haven't had that in years though

fivezero #16.1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

never had one

forrestina #16.1.1.2 forrestinaOG 2002

i didn't really like that one.

socalgal #16.2 socalgalOG 2003

bacardi & diet coke is great cause there's no fat, sugar, etc.

fivezero #16.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

ever see that bacardi commercial with the midget? so great. my favorite is the one with the fly. killer.

fivezero #16.2.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

ok i was able to see it.....hysterical. i'd freak if a midget stood right in front of me and started dancing.

hunkpapap #15 hunkpapapOG 2003

i could use one of each of those...

ilikebirds #14 ilikebirdsOG 2002

Snakebites.

Tequila only when At least one of my feet is in mexico.

.... and Beer when I plan on sitting around awhile or playing with ping pong balls

yay #14.1 yayOG 2004

I only like tequila if a midget is singing we are the world while rubbing my naked tummy while standing on dishes full of baked beans

hunkpapap #13 hunkpapapOG 2003

I LOVE WOO WOO'S!!! There is a place near me that makes a goblet of them (like 20 oz.) for five bucks. Amazing and all you really need...

tesoro #12 tesoroOG 2001

ew, has anyone had one of these two drinks...the two grossest drinks i've ever had...1-flaming dr. pepper. 2-liquid cocaine. both soooo gross.
best shot: buttery nipple. it tastes like butterscotch..yum.

socalgal #12.1 socalgalOG 2003

i agree, buttery nipple, yum. although some places can make it a little too sweet so you gotta be careful.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

haha. at our engagement party it was so funny. we were opening up gifts in front of everyone and we got...beer mugs, shot glasses, a martini bar set thing. and a margarita set. austin's dad was like MAN! do they have a reputation! lol

oh oh. and austin got his guys the coolest "thank you gifts" for the groomsmen. it was a set in a leather case of a flask, 2 collapsable shot glasses and a bottle opener. so cool.

but, we're not alchys. haha

hunkpapap #10.1.1.3 hunkpapapOG 2003

you know what's great? Those jager chilling machines they have in bars...

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Yeah, last time I had Yager from a chiller was at the Starland Ballroom. Let me just say, "krunk has never been so cold."

thatdarngirl #10.1.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Its funny, on my one test for school we have to write what jaeger taste like and poop (not really poop but..), medicine, and licorice are acceptable answers.

forrestina #9 forrestinaOG 2002

tesoro #6 tesoroOG 2001

haha, whats funny, is when this thread came out i wasnt legally old enough to drink...now i am..and i know my stuff ;-)

first, i love frozen margaritas.
2nd basically any beer on draft (not TOO dark, and michelobe ultra lite is the WORST)
brandy alexander (my mom introduced me to these, they are amazing)
malibu bay breeze. (i love pink girly drinks)
lemon drops

btw...that whole "beer then liquor never sicker" is a myth...i have had both in all kinds of order and not gotten sick...so i dont know what thats about.

forrestina #6.1 forrestinaOG 2002

yea i got sick ONCE and it was from drinking sake in combo with grey goose on the rocks. sake...i'm just not into drinking it warm. hot alcohol is NOT my friend.

socalgal #6.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

warm sake is not good. it nauseates me....but cold sake....thats your freind! esp sake bombs! lol

forrestina #6.1.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

oh sake bombs...i need to come back to cali...

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

oh man, where is Jen? we had sake bombs at this one japanese restaurant...and we were a little too rowdy for a nice family place. hahahha

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

hahaha thats what happened to us. we were all at this sushi place in laguna and we were around the sushi bar banging our hands on the table and shouting "SAKE BOMBS, SAKE BOMBS" it was SO hysterical!!!

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

hahah, that's great.

web-toedchloe #5 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I'm all about
chocolate martinis
black & tan (the real mixed kind, not just guiness)
and a sweet vermouth on the rocks with a twist. That's my after-a-stressful-workday drink.

specialk #4 specialkOG 2003

Stoli Vanilla & Coke
Gin & Tonic
Yellow Cake Martini
Strawberry Fields Martini
Edradour (10 year)
Rasberry Mojitos

Those are just some.........

socalgal #3 socalgalOG 2003

hmmmm, i have so many fav's:
vanil stoli w/coke
sour apple martini
bikini martini
razberi stoli & 7-up
italian surfer
scooby snacks
tu mama

and never ever any beer, unless i'm in mexico then it's corona all the way

sunshyne #3.1 sunshyneOG 2004

another good mexican beer is negra modelo. (if you like a dark beer that is.) plus it has a cute short and tubby bottle.

forrestina #2 forrestinaOG 2002

you know im not really about the mixed drinks. recently discovered that mojo mojitos are fun tho. love the beer. give me a guiness and i am a very happy girl. recent rule: if there is nothing/nothing good on tap (which happens at some of these small bars) then just go with a corona.

fivezero #1 fivezeroOG 2003

Bass Ale is my favorite beer. I order lots of grey goose and fruit juices. And "crackhaus!" Blackhaus and cran. SO good. Tastes like grape cough syrup.

perrin #1.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I have some friends that love the goose. lol

sunshyne #1.1.1 sunshyneOG 2004

im not really a vodka girl. maybe thats bc we only keep absolut citron in the house for making the occasional bloody mary. woo woo contains vodka but the peach schnapps really disguises it. peach schnapps makes me smile.

forrestina #1.1.2 forrestinaOG 2002

grey goose and sprite is where it's at

T
#1.2 toxicgirlOG 2003
