My favorite thus far is Smirnoff [strawberry flavor]. I usually like flavored vodka's in general.

This is a hard question. My favorite mixed drink is a plain margarita on the rocks (specifically the margarita that one of my friends makes; I know the recipe but it never comes out as good when I do it). My favorite drink that comes bottled is Original Sin pear cider or Sand Creek hard lemonade. My favorite liquor is limoncello.

Wannabeer.
I love getting asked if I wannabeer :)
But my fav drink when I want to treat myself is Gin and tonic but it has to have a lot of lime slice and a dash of lime cordial.
I can drink almost anything, but I can't manage a Caesar, too hot and spicy.
I dislike Rye and don't like Whiskey. I find Vodka has no taste.

Frozen marguarita with salt.
Least favorite: Long Island Iced Tea. Who thought this up?
First drink: When I was twelve I washed dishes at a club. They served after nearly every meal 'Grasshoppers'. About half were never touched and came to me the dish washer kid for cleaning. I pretty much left work s__t faced most nights.
Probably a bunch of frat boys trying to have an upchuck contest. You just can't mix that many kinds of alcohol without dire consequences.

Each one of the alcohols are good in their own right but If I want to drink something that looks like tea, I'll just put a little Everclear in my iced tea. Definatly tastes better.

I do too!
I have a 2010 rosé from the south of France, in my refrigerator. It is a vin de pays d'oc - something a little above a table, not silly expensive, and it is wonderful with some cheese and fruit.
Forget the wine snobs, even if they are blood relations. Do you like it?? If so, it's the perfect wine for you.
And another thing, California wines are every bit as good as French.

Beer. I like the full spectrum (though Rauchbier can often be too much for me).
I make my own.
My favorite style is probably Flanders Red (and other sours)... though Abt is wonderful, too.
And I've noticed that I can have approximately one beer of less than 8% ABV now. I had a 10% ABV Abt (Pannepot) on NYE and it floored me and gave me a mild hangover the next day! That's all I had other than lots of water. Last night I had a 7% imperial amber and it floored me... but no hangover ;). Yay for spiro.
I want to be a BJCP judge with my E inspired super sniffing (noticed it this morning, yay).
