Grand Marnier - in a snifter.

Guinness Extra Stout bottle, about 50 degrees F, in a pint glass.

Or a strong, sour, salty margarita, on the rocks ONLY. I don’t drink those much anymore since that time they tried to kill me.

I’m really cheap and easy - gimme Frazia’s Chillable Red in a juice glass, please! I don’t like beer at all, but I do like hard cider. If I’m going for hard liquor, I like frou frou stuff. My favorite is a variation on an Amaretto sour - add some OJ and loads of grenadine, please. I also like Cosmopolitans a bit - it’s the cranberry juice. And I loved the first tequila sunrise I ever had (and the three that came after it).

Good lord! I love Moose Drool! You can’t get it down here though. Bastards!
