Thread: What are you drinking today?

You like your cocktails JP.
Have you seen peppermint over here. I want some with my cognac

Just googled and creme de menthe will do.

This was half the price of creme de menthe. From Vietnam.

Should go down nicely with PAG's curry recipe tonight

Good for indigestion also

And brushing yer teeth.

What you planning on making up Dil?

I have heard the "Buck" is good.

3 parts Gin
1 part Peppermint liquer
1 part Lemon Juice

Mix in highball glass. Add a twist of lime

Yeah Dil, I mix it up based on time of year and what I am doing( BBQing, Yard Work, Party at house, etc.) Certain times of year lead me to drinking a refreshing tall iced up cocktail as its quite refreshing. Other times Anejo Tequila "Neat" or Single Malt "Neat" fit the bill. My wife laughs at my liquor supply on hand. I also have pretty well stocked liquer and mixer supply including a couple of different bitters to change it up. She sometimes requests a cocktail. Years ago during my college era I used to be Bartender at a few large hotels.

Cheers.

I do like a nice long island iced tea, especially to bring me around after a heavy sesh the night before

I'm making a brandy an pep or stinger if its with that menthe stuff.

I do find those to be quite a good drink anytime. If made right they will pleasantly anesthetize one quickly. Most bars make them weak.

Never had one. Not much of a Brandy drinker. Tried it numerous times.

Listerine is the same alcohol content as that stuff.


You sure they didn't just change the bottles and up the price?

^^ It's impossible to make a Long Island weak if all ingredients are added.

Rum, gin, vodka, triple sec and gin.

My go to drink if the missus is out of town for a minimum of 48hrs.

And that's the key. It's not about whether they were all added as much as the volume of each. A good Long Island is an oz of each thus when you add the top off its virtually a splash. However many bars add much less of each and top off with Soda water or coke to give it a tea like look.

Just googled that and Listerine is actually stronger at 26.9%.

Buddha days will never be the same again


This has gotta be Chitty......

A British ethanol "connoisseur" offered this mouthwash endorsement on the web: "Been drinking [popular consumer mouthwash] on the streets for ages now, gets you mashed good and proper. Best bit, it's cheap and makes you smell great. With four different colours and flavours, you just can't get bored with it. Nothing beats going down to the park on a Friday night and getting on it like a car bonnet with a bottle of [mouthwash] and getting mashed with your mates. It even comes with that cap that doubles as a shot glass. My favourite thought is [mouthwash] on the rocks. You can't beat that, and add an umbrella and you're south of the border."

Chitty's writing has improved.

All this talk about Long Islands....

Mixing up one now.

Its Friday and all ya know.

I need to track me down some 151 Dark Rum. Not a big Bacardi fan but it works. Maybe some Gosling's Black seal 151 or Cruzan 151.

...^have you tried Barbancourt rum from Haiti? ...definitely a smooth drink...also Wray and Nephew White rum has an anesthetizing kick in rum punch (I follow the usual recipe)...

Well as the clock winds down to fly back to the states for a friggen month I find myself needing a drink to relax. It will be good to see parents, daughters and a few friends but I would rather fly to some place that is exciting and not just strip mall mania and of course having to listen to all the Fkn Trump nonsense.

Tonight will be something Dark Rum based.

Cheers

One of the many local brews that Mongolia offers; smooth with a decent kick to it. Weather is really nice and warm today with a breeze- it drops to 3 over the weekend- I'll be staying in a ger as part of the new teachers induction- I've been warned about the expected vodka consumption daily

Very nice Mandy, must say I'm a bit envious of your off the beaten track adventures - Myanmar then Mongolia.




3 of these before up at fookin' Stupid O'Clock to ride to Chiang Mai on the back of me mum's Fino.
