I like beer Lexx, any beer. I can't drink liquor for shiet, it hits me too fast. Strawberry Daiquiri is pretty delicious too! ------------------ “If malice or envy were tangible and had a shape, it would be the shape of a boomerang.” — Charley Reese IP: Logged |

Absinthe Gin ( with tonic or orange juice and orange bitters ) Rum and coke or Dr. Pepper Wine (malbec, Zinfandel, Pinot noir, syrah or sauvignon blanc) I also have gotten a taste for beer in the past year. Good beer, though, not Budweiser or some crap. IP: Logged |

Btw, the reason some people 'saw things', when drinking absinthe back in the day was because of the lead soldering that was used on stills used to make the absinthe - lead poisoning.IP: Logged |

I've pretty much had every type of alcoholic drink known to mankind at one time or another.My current drink of choice is Absolute, seltzer and a splash of cranberry juice.

Lexx, I'm curious about Absinthe. Are you buying the one in the liquor store?I have a copy of Absinthedragonfly's recipe to make homemade, but it's pretty labor intensive, so I don't know if I'll ever have the time to try it. My favorite drink is a martini. Grey Goose, up, with 6 olives. I will drink beer if I'm somewhere that doesn't make martini's or doesn't make them well. I'm picky. I also love Petron tequila. I can't say that Petron loves me back though. IP: Logged |

I'm 20...so pretty much what I see is what I get. And I can't have vodka with out a chaser I prefer juice over pop (I'm from Michigan so when I say pop I mean soda pop lol) cause if I drink too much pop at once I feel like I'll have a heart attack. My dad buys busch beer...yes nasty! lol And one day he told me he buys that kind so that me and my sister wont steal it...well we eventuly got use to it. (well she is of age, so she can have expensive beer taste now) I hate the way beer smells and taste but I like how it puts me in the best mood ever. I can usealy only drink half a can, once in a while a whole beer...and then I can barely walk straight. lmao But I don't feel like I get that way with vodka...but I am more of a vokda person.

You would be right... Distilling alcohol is labor intensive and detail intensive. Not to be taken lightly

Milk. Whole. None of that 1 percent or 2 percent or skim or soy. That's for wusses. No goats. Pure unadulterated cow's milk. That's my poison.

I am currently on a vodka journey. I can't drink beer, cider or wine, so just stick to spirits. Used to have a big thing for Brandy, but it's a little heavy for me these days, I tend to stick to clear spirits - white rum, vodka, shnapps - oh, in fact, there's a wonderful Cinnamon shnapps called Goldschlager, with bits of real gold flakes in the bottle, and it is simply divine...IP: Logged |

Snarly; If you drink too much Goldschlager, you will actually secrete the gold flecks through your pores the next day. It's very strange, but true.IP: Logged |

I get trashed very quickly. After two drinks or two shots......I get goofy. After that point I become ridiculous or sex crazed LOL!

It was also the over proof and other poisonous chemicals used to color it or give it extra kick, such as adding a little opium or cocaine.IP: Logged |
