Favorite Adult-Type Beverage
 

In honor of the year's biggest party night, a question. If you drink alcohol, what is your favorite...
--usual old standby?
--special occasion treat?
--something new you've tried?
--beverage to share at a party?

I usually drink Bud Light. I know...boring.

Special occasions, like going to a party, I bring Mike's Hard Lemonade or Cranberry.

Something new I tried just tonight - it's SO good - apple cider and DeKyuper Buttershots. Yummy! Tastes just like a caramel apple. Hope I don't drink too much, while telling myself "just one more, it's only 30 proof." :yelsick:

Beverage to share? Probably a blender with Margarita mix. I love me some Margaritas. But when we go out on NYE I'll probably bring my new caramel-apple concoction with me. :D

Gone, all gone ....

I tried something new when I was in Mexico earlier this week. It's called xtabentun.

From Wikipedia:
I had a sore throat, so drank most of the bottle in two days. Between the anise (which gives it a licorice flavor), the honey and the rum, I'm almost completely cured.

I didn't try it any way but straight. The Maya margarita sounds tempting.

--usual old standby? - Morgan and coke.
--special occasion treat? - Better rum and coke :)
--something new you've tried? - Wine in general, especially Muscat Canneli's (Lost Angel by EOS is excellent)
--beverage to share at a party? - 'Erotic Gnome.' Roughly 4 parts vodka, 1 part Apple Pucker, 1 part Buttershots, top with seltzer.

What kind - Alka Seltzer?

Seltzer water. Club Soda? Original recipe called for tonic water, but I really dislike quinine.

All hail the Glen Livet!
All you need is a glass, some ice, and a mouth.
And of course a little class.

This one's pretty small, but I don't think you should be feedin' our children whiskey. Not even a smooth sippin' whiskey. :lol:
