What is your favorite cocktail

[Mannayz]

Man, some of you guys have some really delicious-sounding recipes I may want to try sometime in the future. It's making my love for White Russians feel seemingly inferior....

Nothing wrong with a good White Russian.


I don't get upset about cocktails until someone walks up to a bar and orders something like a Choco-tini or some shenanigans and then there must be fisticuffs.

A tequlia sunrise. Mmmm they are good and my freind makes them realllly strong. I kinda like anything with tequlia in to actually, because tequlia, it makes me happy....

Considering I can count the number of times I have tried an alcoholic beverage on my fingers, I wouldn't know

Lagers are really pale beers, they look (and taste IMHO) like urine and usually have a hoppy, bitter flavor.

Ales on the other hand are usually darker, and stuff like Porter and Stout are like black, and usually have coffee and chocolate flavors. Guinness is a pretty common example. The Belgian ales I was talking about use a lot of pitted fruits like dates and figs and whatnot to flavor their beers.

It's kinda the difference between do you want to get drunk or do you want to enjoy what you're drinking. Personally, I don't like getting drunk, I want something I can take my time with and savor.

Bourbon Manhattan. Normally I drink Knob Creek, but with Manhattans I think I prefer Gentleman Jack, but I can also go regular Jack Daniels. A small dash of sweet vermouth and two cherries. That's all I need.

You were right the first time mate, Fosters IS rancid . It's the most offensive thing I've ever put in my mouth (apart from Cod Liver Oil perhaps). Some twat tried to drink it [Fosters] through my vuvuzela too, so now that stinks .

As for cocktails, I honestly don't know. Not a big drinker of them. I've had a couple in my time but the most recent one was a couple of years ago and I can't remember the name. Though a mini-ambition of mine is to try a White Russian, purely because of The Dude. And the fact it's got milk in it.

Hit the nail on the head. It took about three days for that 'nasty aftertaste' to hit me again. Luckily I'm older and wiser and very partial to Leffe Blonde and some other ale that's 8% with an unpronounceable name. It's belgian too though and one hell of a nice drink.

As for the vuvuzela? I'm crying on the inside at the loss of another one of them /sarcasm.

Mojito,Long Island Ice Tea and various shots.But I still think on the rocks is my favourite cocktail .

 

[Badong]

The most frequent cocktail I drink is made up of 25% lemon lime soda, 25% Blue Gatorade and 50% Gin. Not the most delicious mix I've had, but its pretty tasty and it fits the budget pretty well.

Moscow Mule, my friend's mum makes them whenever we're over his drinking. Whenever I make them to her recipe it tastes shit, I can't explain why

 

[Scappo]

Dark and Stormy for me- 3/4 Gosling's black rum (from Bermuda), mixed with ginger beer (preferably Barritt's ginger beer, but any decent ginger beer will do).

Also the black and coke- same deal, but with coke instead of ginger beer :9.

Personally (call me a freak) I never want to get drunk, so I will keep that in mind

And I can see myself digging this post up at my 18th...

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

Does JD and coke count?

 

[Togs]

gin and tonic, whiskey and ginger, tequila slammer, pimms- nice and simple stuff.

Nothing wrong with not wanting to get drunk. I've been drunk 1 time in my life, and that was on my 21st and to be honest, it kinda sucked. I felt down, I hurt myself, I threw up, and the night pretty much was kinda meh.

Getting drunk is something that kids and alcoholics do (and the two are not mutually exclusive).

Having a drink or two every once in a while to loosen up and just to enjoy the drink itself is different; something responsible adults do.

 

[Horseradish_5000]

Gotta be the Zombie


(My way)
1 part dark rum
1 part white rum
1 part gold rum
1 part apricot brandy
2 part pineapple juice
1 part orange
1 dash grenadine
and a float of over-proof rum.

This is a good one mmmmmmmmmmm.

I personally cannot understand the appeal of losing control of yourself and your inhibitions... nor in poisoning yourself. Although the last paragraph I have no problem with. Glad to see there is someone who is not telling me to get drunk I have gotten that on this forum before... strange times.

I can't remember what my favourite cocktail is called but it involved baileys, milk and cream (creating a toblerone flavour) but whenever i have it, my taste buds go wild

 

[j0frenzy]

Screwdriver. 1 part vodka, 1 part orange juice. Enjoy. Also a fan of whiskey+coke and Dr. Pepper+rum.

 

[Sonicron]

Bahama Mama. So, so tasty.

I don't remember the exact recipe, but it's various kinds of rum, plus grenadine and pineapple juice.

Been forever since I had one of these. Luckily, the Kieler Woche is starting today, so there should be a bunch of fancy cocktail bars down at the waterfront. Hooray!
