Cocktails. Do you Drink Them? Do You Have A Favorite?
    #14227656 - 04/02/11 06:47 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I, like many of the rest of you, like my marijuana. However, sometimes a night of drinking is in order. Perhaps you might have a drink at a business dinner. Or with friends you might find yourself out at the bar. In these situations a drink is more appropriate than a toke. But what to drink?

I love my craft beer. Love it! A good brew pub is a favorite of mine. However, sometimes I want a stronger than average buzz, but do not feel like drinking several beers. Cocktails are an effective way of drinking a little and getting drunk. Sure, I could take a shot or two. But more and more I wish I knew a mixed drink I wanted. I find myself turning to 7 and 7s on these rare occasions but it is a very elementary drink.


So my question is if you were to have a mixed drink what do you have?

Also, here is a good NPR program that covered the subject of cocktails in depth. Very interesting if you have nothing to do tonight.

I get teased for liking a "girly" drink, but I like cran+vodka.

So the linked I posted was an hour long discussion with two 'high class' bartenders. They argue that any real mixed drink is not based on vodka.

That's why I just stick to beer.  I never get called girly when doing a barley wine or an imperial stout.

I wouldn't argue I guess, considering vodka's main characteristic is that it doesn't taste like anything.

I haven't listened to the program since December, but I believe that was their main argument.

I know what you mean though. I feel the same way for liking 7 and 7's. But most often I will reach for a beer with an abv above 8% which most other people dislike for being 'too strong' or something.

Cranberry Vodka
Gin & Tonic
Vodka Collins
Rum and rootbeer (or coke at a bar)
Bahama Mama - how the last restaurant I worked at made them.
  • light rum (capt morgan silver)
  • dark rum (meyers)
  • coconut rum
  • grenadine
  • Pinnaple juice
  • Orange juice
  • shaken in ice and poured into a pint glass

2 of those in a pint glass will make you walk funny, since they where at least half alcohol.

citron press (soda splash 7up) is really refreshing

el diablo - tequila (good of course) splash ginger ale, fresh cranberry, 2 limes... yums

people who don't enjoy vodka because it is sissy, well all i can say is sometimes calories n carbs count...
