what's your favorite alcoholic drink?

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Aug 15, 2008, 05:17 AM

hmm I think my current one is a caeser, but nothing tops a good double black label on the rocks or some hennesey xo straight. gin n juice is awesome too

mike2h · Aug 15, 2008, 06:28 AM

in no particular order -good beer, good wine, sinlgle malt, good tequila.
& i know thats not what u were asking

Tril · Aug 15, 2008, 08:48 AM

Anything as long as you're the one paying.

Seriously, one of my favorite is Rum & Coke. It reminds me of a trip I made with friends at the dominican republic where this drink was served for free. At first, I did not really like it. After drinking a few of them almost daily for two weeks, I aquired a taste for it and now I like it.

Stupid question here : why do people say "on the rock"? Can't they just say "with ice"? Is there a difference in meaning or it's just to sound "cool" or "drinking knowledgeable" or something?

Sorrel (in Jamaica) also called Jamaica in Mexico ( the 'J' becomes a 'H' sound).

It's made with the petals from the roselle plant. I make it myself and have about 2lb of the petals here at home in London. It's a beautiful drink serve chilled on it's own during the hot days and mixed with some good quality white rum at night.

That probably makes sorrel a mixer and not an alcoholic drink. Therefore, please accept guiness as my entry.

Jameson on the rocks with a splash of water. Favorite non-liquor drink has to be Guinness. And the two of them together? Heaven.

Necrosis · Aug 15, 2008, 03:31 PM

Guinness or free

Judas · Aug 15, 2008, 03:41 PM

ATM

Red Russian

H3X4D3C1M4L · Aug 15, 2008, 04:46 PM

Beer (as in free).

My usual draught of choice is Rickard's Red... but in a pinch Alexander Keith's Red will suffice. If I'm not paying I'm not complaining

Lowfat · Aug 15, 2008, 04:59 PM

MGD or Corona, it is pretty much all i drink.

Callandor · Aug 16, 2008, 03:40 AM

Well, don't drink (except on special occasions) anymore, but here's the synopsis in no particular order, anyway.

Africa:

Favourite Namibian Beer: Windhoek (named after capital city, 3.5%, very good tastes just like Amstel but a bit crisper)
Favourite South African Beer: Carling Black Label (5.5%)

Europe:

Favourite Dutch (and Overall) Beer: Amstel Light (3.5%)
Favourite German Beer: Karlsberg Export (5.4%)
Favourite Irish Beer: Guiness (4.27%)

North America:

Pilsner, GW Pilsner, Keith’s, Big Rock, Kokanee.

Heavy stuff: JD, Johnny Walker Black Label; Green Label; Blue Label, Klipdrift (Klipdrift with coke

)

Specialty: Sex on the beach, Blowjob (unique South African Amarula Cream with whiskey I think, a hot half Spanish, half South African girl once bought me this at a popular bar/resturant/club called Bull & Bush in Botswana, tastes good

)

BlueMak · Aug 16, 2008, 04:22 AM

Drambuie or Samos red wine. Though I don't really drink anymore.

For someone who never drinks you have quite a list there

Callandor · Aug 16, 2008, 04:49 AM

Well, I used to drink lots man, before I quit lol.

Callandor · Aug 16, 2008, 05:52 PM

Crap, I forgot the wine, favourite wine of all time is South African Four Cousins Natural Sweet Red (12.5%) which is like affordable and pretty damn good for its price (would be referred to as "somewhat cheapo" if you were in Southern Africa, but I assure you, it does come in a bottle

), the Four Cousins Rose is also extremely damn good, I'm not gonna lie, I'm no wino/only just started drinking wine like a year and a half ago so other than that I'll try any reputadely good French, Italian and Australian red wine as well.

Finally someone says it. We're all thinking it eh

Yeah... I find most American beers too weak and watery. Even if I'm just enjoying a cold one on a hot afternoon I prefer a good heavy beer
