Do ya drink, what do ya like to drink, how do ya mix your drink?


I've been enjoying myself some Banana Rum and Pecan Praline Whiskey as of late, both of which seem to do rather well in milk.

Anyone else want to talk about alcoholic stuff?

Wild Turkey preferably with ginger ale. Pepsi is second. Diet is a necessary because sugar affects me more than alchohol.

I also have two kids... so drinking isnt a priority like it used to

Still of the opinion that beer tastes gross so ciders are my usual choice if I'm going for a pint, a Kopparberg or Rekorderlig maybe or whatever they've got on tap. If I'm feeling wealthy I'll go for a dark rum with coke.
My personal stash is mostly stocked with mead at the moment. I adore the stuff and the Christmas markets were full of bottles of it this year

I get drunk. I get hung over. Even the first couple of drinks of the night can determine the course. They were big ones.

I like to make White Russians because they're easy and cheap.

Cider and wine mostly. I have coeliac disease so I can't drink most beer, but I never liked it that much even before I was diagnosed, so it's no longer great loss.

Vodka with lemon iced tea is my go-to, occasionally with a splash of soda water. Unless it's a social occasion, when I'll usually have a cider.

I don't drink but I'd like to give some stuff a shot. You guys got any suggestions for someone that wants taste over simply getting shitfaced?

Rose wine is really good if you want taste. There is also the different flavors of Seagrams.

.

That's the opposite of how I envisage parenthood.
At the moment, one is waking up at 4am. Everyday. And he's not old enough to look after himself. I've never had a hangover so that's not an issue. But alcohol does make me tired and I probably shouldn't be drunk looking after a kid

Hopefully, in a few years it will be different when he can look after himself in the morning

The only thing virgins should be involved in is sacrifices to the Volcano Monkey God Hamamrambu.

Jokes aside, I just prefer a glass of whisky over ice. Mix drinks are great and all, but so many calories and loads of extra sugar.
Fun fact though, since I'm in culinary school currently, intoxication is an allergic reaction in your brain. The more drunk you get, closer to pass out, is your brain slowly shutting down from an allergic reaction to the chemicals in the drink. That's what a hangover is - basically the body thought it was going to die and needs to do a hard reboot.

I rarely if ever drink, but when I do it's usually Baileys, which recently I was told is a ladies drink, but then I also sit down peeing.

Ciders and cocktails, they always go for flavour over impact. Be care with Long Island Iced Teas though, they're deceptively strong.

It is a ladies' drink, but a very very nice one, especially in winter. Absolutely massive number of calories though.
