Add a couple more things and you could have yourself your own meth lab, I think.... (No, I know nothing about that, but I've heard that some nasty stuff like that--brake fluid in particular--goes into making the stuff.)

Anyway, I don't drink much at all either, but when I do, a beer is usually what I prefer--preferably a dark one. When I was living in Japan though, drinks were expensive and a lot of bars sold all kinds of drinks for the same price--usually something steep like 1000 yen (about 8 bucks at that time)--whether it was for a beer, a shot, or a mixed drink. So I came to appreciate the best "bang for your buck" drink I knew of at the time, the Long Island Iced Tea. Back then I LIKED to get drunk, though....

Favorite drink, period (out of all possible, alcohol and non) is "Ruby Red" grapefruit juice. I'll go through a gallon of that in a couple days.

Long-Island Ice Teas are the spawn of Satan. Cheap, tasty and devastating.

Gin and tonic, really. Though a good cold bottle of Grolsch can make me quite happy too

 

[John-LP]

Southern Comfort

 

[Phantom Lord]

Sun: Cuba Libre (original recipe)
Warm evening: Cava Seco
Anytime: Barbaresco
In dire need: Mai Tai

I'll stick with the classic pint of Guinness.

Maker's Mark bourbon...maybe with a little ginger ale, or maybe not.

Water. Fresh, ice-cold water.

Oh dear:

My favourites of this month (so far )

Ahem… Beer…
Gin & Tonic (the ‘Mojoan’-version)
Orange-Juice and Vodka (the ‘Ohwellian’ version) I put Grenadine in the bottom though, we call it ‘Filur’ here.
Vodka +Gin +Rum +Pisang Ambon +green soda (the Combat Soldier)
Whiskey (16 year old Jameson)
Cognac (Not the expensive stuff)
Fernet Branca on the rocks horrible stuff, but what the hell…
Skyy vodka on the rocks
Jägermeister and red soda (the Fire truck)

Me and a buddy of mine had a cocktail night – we mixed a lot of drinks and tried if they were any good. Later in the evening, the taste didn’t seem to matter though.

Coffee and it's varius derivations

On the increasingly rare occasions when I drink for intoxication:

In the summer - vodka press: vodka, tonic, 7-up and lime; it is a refreshing drink that rarely leaves much of a hang-over.

In the winter - Beer and Jameson on the rocks.

When you really need to get where you are going quickly - Long Island iced tea.

Often I drink a glass or two of red wine a day for health and taste (and because I get free samples from wholesalers), my favorites are:

Barolo, Barbaresco, Amarone or Tuscan Merlot from Italy
Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Bordeaux or Burgundy from France
Oregon Pinot Noir
Merlot from Washington
Cabernet, Syrah or Zinfandel from California
Australian Shiraz
Cheap reds from Spain

For non-alcoholic drinks I prefer water or Fresca.
