What's everyone drinking?

I haven't heard of that one. I did try the mandarin Absolut with tonic and liked it.

I had a couple Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA's tonight with dinner.

 

I have gotten on a Zinfadel kick lately (and no not "white" zinfadel). The last bottle I bought was a Ridge Sonoma County Three Valleys. I was very pleased with it. Even my wife, who generally is not a fan of reds, liked it.

 

We were drinking Americanos tonight pre dinner... Campari, lemon, vermouth club soda....thick hunk of lemon twist. very good!

 

Four Peaks Brewing Company (local) Kiltlifter Scottish-style ale

 

Two fingers of Woodford Reserve, batch 604

 

Two fingers of Monster Lo-carb. Gave up booze again last year.

 

Mountain Dew Code Red and Smirnoff.

Champagne I've discovered if you stick a paper towel in it after removing the cork it stays fizzy.

You should be able to pick up a champagne "cork" cheap or free at a wine store. I have a few from yellow label that latch very tightly to maintain the carb.

Nice choice.

similar to this.

Best ginger ale ever:

(His flavored ginger ales, while good, aren't as impressive.)

Later one we'll greet the warm afternoon weather with Simply Limeade and Knob Creek.

Found a new and tasty treat last night. Anyone tried the new Captain Morgan Black??? It is apparently aged in charred oak barrels. Has a smokey, sweet taste. Great on the rocks.

 

Well I didn't drink any but was at a friends grandmother's house tonight and she was showing off the $30 bottle of cognac a friend gave her. Yeah, if they can buy bottles of Remy Martin Louis XIII for $30 I wanna meet the guy.

I suppose I should have asked to have a taste but that's not my style. May be the only chance I have though because I will never spend $2K for a bottle of booze!~!?

 

Some bottles from friends vineyard. Was a good night.

"Poinsettias" for Christmas.

You can't screw this up.

Five ounces of cranberry juice
Five ounces of Champagne, or other bubbly
A shot of cointreau
A shot of vodka
Or so

You can get wildly off on this, and it will still taste great

Make a pitcher. Or three.

got to try that...how is the hangover ?

 

Nice 100% agave tecquila, over ice, splash of sweet sour, splash water, and lime....called a "Brett" by my local watering hole

 

2010 Honig Cabernet Sauvignon...just delightful. You can enjoy one glass all night long. It is a great sipping wine.

 

It's been my drink of choice lately ... also have been enjoying Dickel Barrel Select ... good stuff ... always neat
