What do you Drink?
« on: July 19, 2005, 08:02:25 PM »
So then, what does everybody drink?  Or do you drink at all?

Here's your chance to reveal your true feelings about booze.

Cheers!   ;)

I like cider more than alco-pops but voted alco-pops because it would have been my second choice.

I usually drink wine, white only but lately I've been drinking quite a bit of Baileys on ice and I too love cider.

I mix it up.  Only thing I don't like to drink is Ale and Tequila straight up.

Ashley, yum on the Baileys over ice, I love it!

JD and Diet Cole is my usual if anything

I always, always mix. When I'm in, it's usually fresh pineapple juice with lime and vodka, or another juice like cranberry and vodka -- always with plenty of ice and plenty of vodka!  [smiley=drunk.gif] I also love cocktails when they're available. When I'm out, vodka and redbull does the trick of keeping me totally energized to have a long fun night. White wine is also good just for relaxing on a night in. I can't stand beer or lager though!  :P

Yes. I have tried a lot of different types. I enjoy a nice cold Strongbow with a BBQ.
I also enjoy Baileys over ice but packed on the pounds at xmas from drinking it too often.

I'm not a fan of spirits at all, although I do enjoy a nightcap in winter and on holidays.  I will drink beer, but haven't really got into it, although I'd like to try some ciders for Autumn.

But I have been enjoying wines since I first lived in France at 15.  I've taken several wine tasting courses and even went to weekly tastings for a few years.  

Nowadays as I'm pregnant I stick to the odd glass once or twice a week, but IMO there really is nothing like a simple meal with good company and a bottle or two of good wine (and a reminder, good wine does NOT have to be expensive!).  

It's a good way to honour the seasons and compliment your food.

Hell, Anne's even got me considering . . . *gasp* . . . chardonnay!

I drink wine.  Unless I'm with Cait and then I seem to drink Margaritas.  Lots of Margaritas.   ;)

My favourite is Morgan's Spiced Rum with Coke.  Second to that is wine, and I also like to enjoy the occasional cream liqueur over ice such as Drumgray, or Bailey's Glide.  Yum! :)

Word of Cait's margaritas has spread far and wide....

I forever and always love wine and I enjoy gin and tonics.  In the summer, I'm particularly fond of margaritas and I've discovered these Mike's Hard Lemonades, which I don't remember pre-1996.

In the winter, I love my "nip" of cognac in the evening by the fire.

My biggest problem is that I can feel it more readily these day...

I love mixed drinks.....pina coladas, screwdrivers and mudslides being my favs. :P But I usually just end up drinking alco-pops when I'm out...Smirnoff or Bacardi Breezers and that type.
