Thread: What are you drinking today?

I think I would do a nose test and decide. If pungent I'd probably hold the glass for a awhile then try and find a way to set it down somewhere.

Thankfully I do not know anybody who drinks it so I am safe for now.

From what little I read, it's a rice whiskey which doesn't sound enjoyable. Maybe heat it up like a Japanese Sake

I fine philosophy. I think I would have a sip of almost anything just out of curiosity


Glass of bubbles with a fake Glenlivet for watching the very funny Deadpool and Wolverine 8.3/10

My sister gave me that bottle of Glenlivet for my 32nd birthday which was a few moons ago.

I kept it as an ornament for 14 years since I was not a whisky drinker. Then I discovered the magic of the syrup and the contents of the bottle was history. Now the bottle it is kept for sentimental value and used as a mixer bottle when drinking a new whisky since you need to make room for the syrup by decanting 20% of the new bottle. Whatever is in the bottle is still single malt since I don't drink anything else, so it is not too fakey fakey (like my Remy Martin!)

My new set of copper drinking mugs arrived in the mail.

The 'poor man's stumpy' project takes a much needed step forward after the pool debacle.

They look suitably cheap and nasty.

Got the tortoises in yet?

Apparently only stumpy is allowed to have a copper mug.

Any suggestions ?

Excellent choices.

Committed the cardinal sin of mixing the grape and the grain over the weekend.

And 5/6% beers.

Won't be doing that again...

...yeah, right. Of course I will.

Glass of bubbles with a star-spangled chaser. I am warming to this wicked Woodford.

It added some spangled sparkles to Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In which is a martial arts extravaganza set in the famous Walled City in Kowloon (has a very interesting history which I googled up after). The movie conjurers a vivid portrait of the crime-ridden rabbit's warren in the 1980s where 35,000 people lived on 2.5 acres under the flight path to Kai Tak airport before it was demolished in 1993. 8/10

Appears ze German front line cannon fodder prefer to drink from ze Furry cup on ze Eastern front.

Respecto

The glass says it all.

Liter of mineral water
4 teaspoons of tea leaves
1 teaspoon of dried Jiaogulan
Pinches of lavendar, safflower and dried jasmine flowers.

Brewed.
1/2 teaspoon of sugar, milk.

Heaven.

The best weekend refreshment around.



Sliced ginger and lemongrass, lavender, jasmine, rose buds, safflower, cris-an-thee-um, stick of cinnamon.



5 liters of mineral water and brew.

Zero toxins.
Zero poisons.
100% delicious.

Time for a whiskey sour, or two.

Nasty yelamans! Here is an eastern comrade to warm up her muffler on the wintry 1942 Eastern front...

Cracked open another bottle from my sister's birthday case since I need to fill up my beach skittles while watching Beetlejuice 2. A watchable giggle 7.4/10.

If a wine does not pass muster it can be salvaged by adding a capful (5ml) of ribena concentrate. This was a 2 capful glass.

Once you have the capful calibration you can then decant an appropriate number of mls to fix the whole bottle.

This is a trick I learned in the Napa valley while cycling through California in the 1990s!

I even keep a tiny bottle of Ribena in the glove compartment so I can rescue wines while out and about on safari

A mate got me some Leo and some Aussie hot sauce called Shit the bed. Between the 2 of them that's highly likely

Apparently your supposed to drink it sensibly.

The forum's best mod can't be wrong.

But does he drink it sensibly? Or is he trying to drink himself clever?

Allons y!
