Fiction, eh? Damn... Atleast I know better now ^^;Dags90 said:Fiction. Most classic mixed drink recipes date back until at least the 1800's, well before Prohibition.Draxz said:
Prohibition cocktails tended to be mixed with sugar and/or fruit juices though, to mellow out the bathtub gin.
How about a Little Beer shot?
It's Liquor 43 (vanilla-ish, I think) and Baileys.
And oo', I'm not usually one for Beer but that looks nice. That's going onto my list! Thanks.
Beers, of the stouts, porters, and reds variety. Oh my yes.
After that, spiced rum. Because it's delicious.

Grownup drnks? Vodka-tonic with food 'cause it doesn't screw up other flavors -OR- Knob Creek bourbon for pure awesomeness.
Messin' around drinks? Tokyo iced tea (long island w/ Midori instead of Coke) when I've got time to kill -OR- jaegerbombs when I'm in a hurry.
I'm also developing a strong affection for the dark & stormy.

Favorite beer: Hoegarden
Favorite mixed: Ouzo and Cola (I prefer it with Pepsi Max)
Favorite shot: Dead Nazi* (9/10 Jaegermeister with 1/10 Creme de Menthe). This shot tastes like mint with a lingering aftertaste. It is easy to drink and at 35% gets you smashed pretty quick.
* I presume the name alludes to the fact that the mint 'kills' the taste of the (German) Jaegermeister. Not the most politically correct name but there you are.

This homie, I love rum to death, straight shots, mixed, w/e if its rum I'm good.I mean both of my parents are Caribbean, so i guess i didn't have much of a choice lol.Sandjube said:
I can also deal with whiskey and scotch, mostly cause they're closely related as far a alcohol goes(plus I hang with a bunch of white people so I again, kinda had no choice haha)
I not picky with beer tho, I drink just about any beer, expect Milwaukee's best and natural ice.
Why? 'Cos Gin rocks. It goes with everything, and tastes kickass as is, to boot. It's also the ultimate drink for some nice and cool, sophisticated drinking.
But if I'm going to get absolutely wasted, and I mean balls out, stone cold drunk, I like to buy me some JD and sip it straight outta the bottle. Gives me a gruff, sexy voice towards the end of the evening, too.
Oh yes, grams' old cough medicine.
Fucking this
Best Sake I've ever had.
Also helps that the brewery of this fine sake shares the name of a good quarter of my family.

Well I'm glad to have made your day, haha.Draxz said:
You sir, have just made my day with that~
My favorite drink in one of my own invention.
It has no name...yet.
Basically, I mix 1/4 vodka (as long as it's not teh cheapest shit around, any will do), then 1/4 cranberry juice. Add three ice cubes, then fill up the rest of the glass with ice cold ginger ale.
This drink presents itself in a bright red color, with crisp bubbles.
It tastes like ginger ale mixed with red berries, with a subtle aftertaste of alcohol.
It also kicks like a mule, since it's refreshing, and you have the tendency to drink more than one.
Either that or a Guinness. That's always a solid choice.

Personally my favourite drink is called a Flaming Engineer, or Billy colloquially. It is a popular beverage at my alma mater's pub. And no, I'm not giving away the recipe.
As for more commonly known ones, I either like Jaegerbombs (with Red Bull, not beer) or Irish Car Bombs.
Drop shots are fun =)

1: Bailey's
2: Jägermeister
3: Gin-tonic.
4: Westmalle Triple Trapist beer
5: Liquor 43/Disaronno Originale on the rocks.
That's my current top 5. There's a lot more out there that I want to taste. So many cocktails...

Now that I need to try.Bentusi16 said:
"ALL OF IT!" My first answer, though to get specific, there are some beers I can't stomach, I will throw up after a single swallow of em, but most shit is fine by me.
To be even more specific, Stanley park brewery amber ale, guinness(the perfect breakfast), a,d for hard liquor my favourite drink is to take some glenfiddich 13-18 year aged whiskey(haven't ever had any older or younger, so I cannot say for sure), pour it into a shot glass or a tumbler, say 2 fingers worth take an eyedropper, put a drop o water in it, this hasta be done with all ingredients room temperature, then you cover the opening of the glass with your palm, hold for 10 seconds then drink it, the water drop will chemically activate the whiskey allowing a full flavour, without watering it down, too long and it spoils a bit, not long enough and you miss a bunch of the flavour... Same goes with all whiskeys, you need the tidge of water to make the flavour come outa hiding, otherwise yer missing out.
Cheers mates and drink up!
