My favorite drink is a Captain Morgan’s and Coke. I got plastered on these at a friend’s house about a year ago and now drink them exclusively. It’s yummy, hard to mess up, and doesn’t get me to fucked if I only have one. As for beer, I gotta go with Yuengling Lager. I rarely drink beer, but this one’s my favorite. ---

As for mixed drinks…I love a Tequila Sunrise… I do like Yeungling…however…I can’t get it unless I ride up to the Shenandoah Valley. So it’s headed this way. ---

My favorites depend on the season, as a rule. In spring/early summer: white wines, such as Sauvignon Blanc or a crisp Chardonnay. I love Soave Bolla, too, but for some reason it’s harder to find than it used to be around here. Summer: same types of wine, but love a good Canadian Club with SevenUp to wind down in the evenings. Fall/winter: red wines. Merlot, Chianti, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The colder the weather, the dryer the wine. Sometimes during this time I get on my Crown and SevenUp kicks. Year round: Margaritas. Preferably with a mixer that doesn’t have a gallon of Triple Sec in it. And leave off the lime, please. Cheers! 🙂 ---

It depends what my goal is: Whether I want to get smashed, or whether I want something good. If I just want to get drunk, straight vodka is my favorite. If I just want something to drink that tastes good, margaritas or wine coolers work for me. ---

I really only like mixed drinks and shots of hard liquor: -Shots: tequila, rumpleminze -Non-embarassing to order at the Elk’s Lodge bar :): gin and tonic -Girly drinks: midori sour, lemon drop, kamikaze, strawberry daquiri I usually order Gin and Tonics because i like them so much. I like a slice of lime in mine usually. And if i have enough liquor in my i’ll do shots of most anything ---

There for awhile it was just Vodka, with no chaser, usually the cheap crap like Dark Eyes. I’d buy the small bottle and drink the whole thing. Not really much of drinker but one time I don’t know I just couldn’t handle it. So I’m probably going to switch back to Afterschock. ---

My user name sez it all… BTW as I have posted elsewhere UncleBeer makes a damned fine Kamikazee. My recipe book says equal parts vodka triple sec and lime juice but maybe Uncle Beer would share his special recipe? ---

> [@](#): > > And if i have enough liquor in my i’ll do shots of most anything Sing it, brother. Ain’t that the truth! I’ve shot things I wouldn’t ever consider putting in my mouth under the influence. Six shots of Screaming Nazi’s? Okey dokey! For some reason, drinks with OJ have always made me puke, even if I just have one. I can drink straight OJ anytime, but add liquor and I will be ill without exception. ---
