What are you drinking tonight?
I'm having a cup of coffee with some Rahm-Likör aus Appenzell added for some extra punch.

13. I drink a shameful amount of Coronas most summer weekends.
Start at noon. Continue until about midnight or so. People can say what they want about Coronas, but they are a good beach beer.

6. Fascination
What is this fascination with that which is passing between the pharynx and stomach of a DU poster?

Just plain old ice water. Cool, refreshing and required in mass quantities for prevention of my chronic kidney stones. :eyes:

29. You "missed it for so long" because I just put it there 2 days ago.
Cleaning the house, I found some of sweetie's CDs
and was adding them to the computer...That song started playing
and that line just kinda JUMPED out at me.

I have NO idea what it means, but it sure feels
like it means SOMETHING, y'know?
And it kinda made an odd tie-in with the Lounge thread
about dreaming in color/B&W I had just read.

46. She's in my ears right now
Check out "Pensacola" once you get done with "Spider Web"

He got the gospel on the radio and the gospel on tv
He got all the transcripts back to 1963
He said 'I sold my blood for money...there wasn't any pain.
But I can't stand the feeling...it's in someone else's veins.'

16. That's probably more powerful than my extra punch.
This stuff is pretty much the Swiss version of Bailey's Irish Cream. My grandmother just brought it back for me. Yup, I asked for Swiss liquor in lieu of a Swiss t-shirt.

14. Brita-filtered NYC tap water out of the fridge.
Delicious.

Much healthier than my usual nightcap (Bacardi Limon on the rocks).

17. as soon as I get this resume out, I plan to enjoy my favorite treat
as a reward. One ice-cold IBC Diet Root Beer. This is the best non-diet-tasting diet drink out there. It's so good that the first time I had it, I thought there must've been a big error in the bottling plant.

I think I would just do shots and save the tea for after or something.


And ice tea IS what I'm having tonight. (dang, I need to get down to the duty free store in Douglas)

35. Well, if we want to get into a discussion about WHICH vodkas
to use, we could talk all night.

Let's just say, Jaegermeister has been used as a base for many a drink. And we can all admit, that does not turn out perty.

41. WolfSchmidt is a very good CHEAPASS vodka, for mixing.
The flavored vodkas never really have much flavor, IMO;
I don't bother with them much.

44. Never a fan of the flavored toddies
Edited on Wed Aug-30-06 11:12 PM by JackBeck
But when I bartended, my famous shot was Absolute Citron, Chambord and Pineapple Juice. It had a name very dear to my heart.

I did make my own flavored vodkas, but that's a different story...

I can say booze and ice tea is repulsive. (maybe because it's sweetened? - I don't know, but vodka and ice tea? :puke: )

51. I'm a little embarrased to say I have never tried snapple.
I make sun tea, don't care for store tea, but have never actually tried that. I tend to like "bought" softdrinks to be carbonated.

52. I had a rose martini earlier, and am drinking iced tea now.
Rose martini - rose syrup (i.e. rose water in simple syrup; the one I use has a bit of green tea as well) and decent vodka. I drink mine over ice, so I'm probably a barbarian in some people's minds, but I like it.

Now it's a blend I kyped from Celestial Seasonings and then improved - Darjeeling black with orange peel, chamomile, crystalized honey and ginger. A nice summer tea.

Only because I'm stuck at work mind you. The tea is quite good, but if I were elsewhere I'd be having something with a little more kick. :evilgrin:
