[RagingInMiami]

1. Bushmill's Irish Whiskey

[Jack_Dawson]

On the Rox?

Or in coffee?

:shrug:

[RagingInMiami]

33. On the rocks

[terrya]

2. Mine is bourbon...specifically Maker's Mark bourbon.

An excellent taste.

[Jack_Dawson]

5. You mean Wild Turkey?

Just kidding. Makers is fantastic I'll give you that.

[eyepaddle]

28. Yes,

Maker's Mark is excellent stuff--and reasonably priced to boot!

[On the Road]

32. I Love Bourbon -- Knob Creek is My Favorite --

and really good gin. And once in a while, a nice single malt is very appealing. They're all aromatic, smooth, and flavorful.

I just don't understand the fascination with vodka. The better the vodka, the less flavor it has.

[mac56]

42. Maker's Mark is the best.

I give my dad a bottle each Christmas, and then he and I pretty much polish it off...

[Placebo]

3. Vodka

[LDS Jock]

51. I second Vodka.. but...

aren't you a tad young to be familiar with vodka?

[WindRavenX]

4. ice cold Stoli

Vanilla flavored. Mmmmmm.

[Jack_Dawson]

8. Haven't tried Vanilla Stoli...

maybe I'll check it out on Sunday morning before kickoff.

[WindRavenX]

18. You won't be disapointed

But please, do ensure that it is very cold- brings out the flavor :hi:

[Cuban_Liberal]

6. Hard to beat GOOD rum.

:D

[Jack_Dawson]

23. Like What?

:shrug:

I like Cap'n Mo but I'm sure you're into something more exotic, being a Cuban Liberal and all...

[mcscajun]

35. Gotta Love Rum...

...for ordinary mixed drinks...Bacardi is my rum of choice.

but...for serious 'sipping rum' -- then it's gotta be Rhum Barbancourt from Haiti. :)

[RagingInMiami]

40. If you order a Cuba Libre in Miami

They'll tell you "eso es una mentira."

[flamingyouth]

47. True - that is my favorite too

Also, the main ingredient in those tropical drinks I love so much. :D

[Frogtutor]

49. Mmmm...I like rum...I need to go buy some more for my eggnog...n/t

[MissMillie]

7. I like Cognac

but I like tequilla too

[Richardo]

9. Ahh the nectar of the juniper berry...

=> :9

[Jack_Dawson]

12. Juniper Green?

:wtf:

[Richardo]

13. It's 'organic' ...

I guess.

I just nabbed the first picture of a gin bottle off of Google.

[Richardo]

20. On edit - changed gin pic.

to something less :wtf:

[BringEmOn]

10. My girlfriend

:evilgrin:

[Jack_Dawson]

15. Dude sorry about your f'd up family situation

but don't be such a buzzkill. I haven't done anything wrong other than laugh at stupid shit and pass out early.

[NightTrain]

25. Yeah, sorry about that.

I read and posted to the "Worst Christmas Memory?" thread just before I saw your poll. Consequently, that horrid memory was at the forefront of my brain when I posted here.

The few times in my life that I've been drunk, I only acted silly and, as you said, laughed at stupid shit. Though I take after my dad in some ways, being nasty while drunk is not one of them! Mercifully.

[NashVegas]

30. My Dad Was an Alcoholic, Too

My worst Christmas was during the 18 months his body was wasting to non-Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Still, I refuse to let alcohol have that much influence over my life. Which means that although I no longer get drunk (it was fine as a young adult but we all have to grow up eventually), I don't avoid alcohol for the sake of avoiding alcohol.

If I'm not drinking, it's because I feel like drinking. If I am drinking, it's because my friend Tom makes the bestest Bloody Marys in the world.

In all things, moderation is key. I worry about people who drink stuff like Jagermeister, and other boozes I can't even spell, soley for the sake of being drunk. If you're in it for pleasure, why take such a godawful route?

[Dzimbowicz]

17. I don't care for it either

but don't let me put a damper on your party. :)

[Lone_Star_Dem]

19. Holy Shit....

My dad was a psycho when he drank, too. Except he was like that everytime he drank, no added stress needed.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. :hug:

[fluffernutter]

14. tequila. body shots, baybee!

[ulysses]

16. Tully.

Neat.

[sundog]

21. rubbing alcohol

[blue neen]

22. Tanqueray.

Love that stuff. I haven't had any of that in quite a while!

[mwdem]

48. T n T's!

Tanqueray and tonics. Bombay Sapphire for the perfect martini.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

24. Stoli Ohranj

I love that stuff.. yummy

[mark11727]

26. Southern Comfort

Back in the day, Comfort-n-Coke was my drink.

[eyepaddle]

27. The fifteen year old Laphroaig (single malt scotch) is mind bending

In a GOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDD way :)

[bigwillq]

29. Rum, although I'm not a big hard liquor fan

I'm a beer man!

[NashVegas]

31. Tequilla

Not only do I enjoy a well-mixed Margarita, but tequilla is a liquor that acts as a stimulant for me.

[Longgrain]

34. Haven't had hard liquor in some time...

Though I still enjoy White Russians on Christmas eve...(as long as they are female...)

[fluffernutter]

36. baha! i love white russians, mmm.

[Longgrain]

39. It seems you and me have a lot in common...

Maybe we can get to know each other sometime.

BTW let me introduce myself, my name is Longgrain...and I love white Russians (as long as they are female)...I do however dispise marshmallow fluff-icky...

But I like seeing your avatar image;-) .

[Magrittes Pipe]

37. Whatcha got?

:shrug:

[leans2left]

38. Crown Royal here

[goodboy]

41. B&B (nt)

[vixengrl]

43. I have a *damn* relationship with bourbon.

I love my bourbon. I love it with tap water. I love it on the rocks. I gently top it with Diet Coke, but not enough to bruise its spirit. Jim Beam and Old Granddad have have spent many a night dozing under my roof. Love me some damn bourbon.

[sendero]

44. Tequila, but...

.... while I'm not averse to drinking cheap liquor or beer, with tequila you have to go with the 100% agave stuff or you are asking to pay for your good time many times over :)

100% agave tequila imparts an alcohol high sublimely better than any other booze I've tried (and I've tried a lot :evilgrin:) and is well worth the extra $$ for a special good time!

[Sgent]

45. Mmmm... Liquor

I can't pick just one. I like 'em all.

Scotch -- There are a host of excellent scotches out there. Just on the rocks...

Burbon -- This hearken's back to my college days of yesteryear. Jack Daniels Gentleman Jack (actually a mash) is my favorite, but Makers Mark is a close second.

Rum -- My favorite is a Veneszulan Rum called Classic`. Most of the dark rums from the islands are truley stupdendous drings. Capn Morgan's doesn't come close.

Vodka -- My original hard drink, straight on the rocks. I really enjoy Absolut, but Stoli is also excellent. I've gotten to the point where I now mostly drink dry Vodka Martini's.

Gin - Cant stand it, could have something to do with a time I overindulged on Beefeater while a Freshman in college. I can't even smell Gin w/o being nasous.

[TSIAS]

46. Whiskey

My favorite is Jack Daniel's, but I like George Dickel and Maker's Mark as well.

[gtp1976]

50. Love a good burboun and Coke.

I actually prefer Diet Coke because it greatly reduces the calories of the drink and I think regular soda is far too sweet, but most people look at me like I am GWB when I say that so I usually regulate it to the text part of the messages. :-)

[Politicub]

52. I love my vodka martinis

especially those of the Belvedere variety. mmmm

[Menshevik]

53. Vodka

Has anyone ever been to "Red Square" at Mandalay Bay in Vegas? God, I love their vodka bar.

[njdemocrat106]

54. Johnnie Walker Black Label

Scotch whisky, naturaly, though I do enjoy all the other options, too.

[leftofthedial]

55. Bushmill's Irish Whiskey

since 1608

[Jack_Dawson]

56. Damn - Vodka winning by 2:1 margin

And it doesn't even taste like anything? DUers how do you explain this?
