Dennis I had to crack up.... we are the only two I believe that are into the single malt scotches.

Liquor:  Courvoisier VS ,  Balvenie Portwood 21 yr , Henessey, Grey Goose, Jack Single Barrel
Mixed:  Jack and Coke, Margarita ( depending where I am)
Beer:  Hienekin, Coors, Miller Draft Gold ( I seldom drink beer unless outdoors camping )
Wines: I seriously collect wines...favorites r,  Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon... Shelton Vinyards 2002 Sangiovese, Valle Escondido Otono 2003, and the list could seriously go on.
Liqueurs : Ammerito
Shots:  Jack, Balvenie portwood, and other single malts 18 yrs and over, under 18 I honestly do not like.  Oh and don't forget the cigar/pipe to boot on a crisp fall sunday afternoon of reading.

Peace
Taylor

I opened this thread expecting to find that we all had our own drink named after us.

Personally, I like almost everything I've tried, which isn't much... margaritas are probably my favorite, but honorable mention goes to anisette. Tequila on the rocks is also good; the ice melts and carries the flavor but dilutes the sharpness.

I dislike beer though.

Tequila and I don't get along thanks to a misadventure over 20 years ago. I remain convinced that tequila is just liquor that someone's poured kerosene into. I took a tour of a tequila factory in Mexico once and nearly got pushed into a demonstration cactus when I asked what phase they added the kerosene.

I can just manage to sip a little now, but even the smell sets my stomach off on a train of unpleasant memories.

Dennis

There are some liquors I just can't stand.  I mean the vapors themselves make me want to vomit.  Like I could not drink Brandy or Maker's Mark Whiskey.  Both just set my stomach off.  Rum is probably my favorite base liquor, but then I guess a lot of girls like rum.

Melissa

I love gin & tonics or vodka and cranberry.

I also love Baileys.

Drinking is fun

Taylor you have a sophisticated side.. How lovely

Cool!

Ricki,

Yep it is french and I absolutely love relaxing with it. I came up with the idea that with drinking invest in what you really like and enjoy it sparingly. I am by far not a big drinker seldom feeling real effects, but enjoy the taste and the aroma of something that is pleasing to my senses. If I drank a lot I could not afford what it is that I enjoy so what would be the point lol. Of course I packed a bottle of Jack for my weekend escape into the forrest with the wife for the next few days lol.

Peace
Taylor

Ah yes...Courvoisier VS...I have a friend in L.A. that I don't get to see very often.  Everytime we get together, it usually involves an evening of sitting and talking while enjoying a bottle of VS.

Diet Coke

Cindi

I knew you were my kinda gal.  I have a serious habit...6-8 cans a day during the week, 12-pack a day on the weekends.  You like yours straight up or on the rocks??

Uh...No

Laurie my sister drinks all "diet" sodas and she is convinced that the apsartime and diet sweeteners are causing her memory loss? hehe..
I did not bother to look for some report citing that chemical sweeteners cause memory loss, I remember talking to her one night and she was like seriously i am forgetting things, I said well that's old age-stress-your idiot hsuband- i said that twice YOUR IDIOT HUSBAND!-your crazy kids-you doing too much-, she said no no.. I said well heck if its a big issue stop drinking the darn diet soda??? Geeze!!!!!!!!!
Taylor you have style no matter what anyone ever says! 
I agree completely about the quality aspect if you are going to drink-drink well? 
I digress.. and also agree with the jack theory!  I have bottom shelf stuff for that time where quality is not the issue just fogging your brain to get the day out of your head!  For better evenings or weekends where its just a drink or two then better stuff accounts!
I am not much of a whiskey drinker had a bad episode over two decades ago in high school that had me in bed for three days never could deal with it after that!
Thanks
R

Ricki...I was going to blast that theory completely out of the water, but I forgot what I was going to say.   

........Old What's her name

Beer:  Corona with a lime, NewCastle Ale, Sapporo

Liquor:  Crown Royal, Wisers, GOOD vodkas (Oklahoma's only distillery makes a FANTASTIC vodka),  Jose Cuervo, Cuervo 1800, Mezcal (haven't made it to the worm yet)

Mixed: Whiskey and coke, Bloody Mary, Margaritas

Liqueurs: None unless they are used in a cocktail like an appletini

Shots:  Occasional tequila shot with salt and lime..other than I'm too much of wimp.  (rattlesnakes are good)

Wine:  Occasional chardonney (I like YellowTail), Pinot Noirs and Merlots for reds from a good vintage.  Since any vineyard can produce a great wine one year and a bad the next I am not really brand specific.

Brankiok.. Nice choices!*__*
Luarie.. How's this somedays the reduced sugar syrup is fine for the pancakes but once in a while you got to splurge with Real Maple Syrup........
You know what that happens to me the forgetting, its the darn diet vodka i am drinking..
hehe. what a fun post!
I must post grisly news here... Off the subject but the steelers are just convinved that self-destructing this season is the way to go.. Alas they'll go into 2-6 record after being the SB champs....  I'll put the rest of my pennies on them being a spoiler team for the better ones!

Oh my dear... a 12 pack on weekends?  Do you know what is in that stuff?  Oh yes.. my habit is just as bad.  I could afford a new house for what I put into Coke's bottom line.  Every once in a while, I'll not have any for a few days.  I try to make sure that no one is around for that time.  I'm a very nasty person when I get the urge to purge.

Cindi

Wine= Pinot Noir, or Grigio from Oregon

Hard Liquor =  I have to agree with Taylor and Dennis Single Malts Scotch Glen Morangie on the rocks with a twist.

Ricki...learn to spell my name...nothin turns a lady off quicker than calling her the wrong name.  As far as Real Maple Syrup...its all I use.  Life is too short to use fake syrup.

I had to give up the diet vodka...when mixed with diet coke, the whole dang glass just shrank away to nothing.  (Probably forgot where it was too.)

And at least your Steelers didn't give away the game (after time ran out) like the Cowgirls did.

Yes, Cindi...I know what is in that stuff, but I prefer to think of it as building up a tolerance to all those harmful chemicals.  Those of you who haven't been building up will go into shock the first time somebody slips you some sugar free cookies or candy.  And yes, sometimes my montly diet coke bill is the same as my mortgage...wonder if I could build a house from the empties???

OMG...It just hit me Cindi...you drink Diet Coke??? It has caffeine.  No wonder the Mormons are mad at you.  You know that nothing ticks them off faster than somebody hyped up on caffeine.

And, for the record, I refuse to believe that you can be a "very nasty person" when you "get the urge to purge".  Tell you what, the next time you unhook the diet coke IV, let us know.  If you turn into the Wicked Witch of the West, I'll be the first to tell you    Until then, you are a sweetheart and always have been.

Beer is such a maculine drink!!

So I like to drink a vodka martini (it's a classic)

I like vodka tonic when I just want something long and cool.

For those hot summar nights, OJ and Malibu (coconut) Rum;

ut my favorite, standby is red wine; (Columbia Crest Merlot from Washington State is my house wine. )

Laurieo.........
I have two excuses...
Too many of those nice vodka drinks i like and a bad left hand the left hand typed badly and the vodka prevented my brian from proof reading the post?
sorry sluuuurrrrrrr
I need to clean up my act!
Jennyclassgirlllllll
you are cool vodka martinis are wesome too!
i think i like too many alcohol drinks!

There are only a Few things that I drink and right now here are my Favorites not Fancy


Guiness(if you thought it was a "mans" drink you'd be surprised how many women I've met who drink it)
Sky Vodka and Redbull (drinking a lot of this right now as a matter of fact)
Ice wine


Rei

I drink wine and beer in moderation.  Wine is more feminine.  Generally I fix dinner on Fridays--I get home from work, change into a skirt and put on makeup, and fix dinner for my wife and me; we share a bottle of wine with dinner and finish it off while watching a movie.  White zin and a chick flick go well together.

A nice glass of red wine is my favorite. I've never been into beer, but on occasions that I drink it, a pale ale is ok.
