RE: beverages
I prefer high end vodka's, absolute, kettle one, grey goose etc
Wiskey wise I like Makers Mark in a bourbon, Templeton Rye is my favorite rye whiskey, for scoth I like Adelphi, had some fifty year that was great but most times won't even spend the money on thirty year as the fifteen year is alot cheaper.

RE: beverages
Bullmers and Magners....brilliant Ciders. Love them...and love to cook with them. Pork chops with a cider and cream sauce....YUM
Don't usually drink spirits though, Beer or Wine for me usually. Spirits make me strange...[:@]
If I'm actually in the mood for spirits, it's usually either Rum or Vodka....in the shape of a vodka or run mojito with mint. (That only happens once or twice a year though)
The only problem....it goes down like water....
The other beverages.....one cup o tea a day, lots of water, fresh juice, gatorade, pocari sweat........and a cup of nitro evey weekend...
No Sodas!!!!!

Logan Fils Absinthe is pretty good too. The taste of Absinthe gets a bit much after a while but it's really nice in the beginning.

vieux pontarlier is amazing and reasonable @54 bux a bottle. 65% abv
dulpias vert is another excellent bargain @ 60 per bottle. 68% abv

I like Makers Mark and Old Whiskey River [Willie Nelson] but I've recently taken to Wild Turkeys "American Honey",pretty sweet stuff,,,literally! I usually toss a coupl'a drinks back with some cranberry juice on the rocks but the American Honey with cranber juice was like Super Charged Kool-Aid,,,yummers!! We usually make a liquor run once a year to stock up so this weekend we'll get some more Tequila [Gold-Texas brewed],Vodka and whatever else tickles us,might try some Grappa for kicks too.Plus pick up some cheapy Jim Beam and Jack for marinating meat for the BBQ.Of course we're definetly not beer drinkers or heavy drinkers for that matter,just a coupl'a good decent hits O' spirits now and then.

RE: beverages
Well, difficult one for me is this...
I'm a bar tender by trade. I even used to work on Cunards QE2 and QM2 ships. But my drinking habbits vary.
I have high end tastes most of the time, it just depends on what my mood takes.
SPIRITS:
Tanqueray n Tonic,
Tanqueray n Lemonade,
Pimms No.1 n Lemonade,
Jack Daniels with a flamed orange (Yes i raised an eyebrow when i first heard about it, MUST TRY!!!)
Remy Martin XO
Tequila Patron Anjo (Think thats how it's spelled.)
BEERS:
Kronenberg
Coors
Kasteel Cru
Jennings Cumberland (Ale)
WINES:
Blossom Hill Zinfandel
Faustino V Rioja
Chablis
I am also particular to the occasional cocktail, again though, depends on my mood.
Before anyboy suggests it... Im not gay. I drink what i enjoy drinking, to enjoy it, not to get drunk.
Also, please somebody tell me what 'Mountain Dew' is, I've heard of it, but not sure what it is...

RE: beverages
mountain dew is a soft drink, aka soda.
it's named after and old term used to describe moonshine, some old moonshiners called their moonshine (illegal homemade distilled liquor) mountain dew.
i'm also a big fan of bourbon.
my favorite is pappy van winkles 20 year family reserve. bookers (127 proof!!)is also great as is knob creek, buffalo trace, william larue weller and real wild turkey (101 proof)

RE: beverages
just a good Rockstar energy drink for me. No I'm not a minor....I'm 26, but got into a little trouble with alcohol back in the day. I'll still have a beer every now and then, or I'll see something that catches my eye, so I'll give it a taste. But either scenario is a rare occasion.

RE: beverages
Hmm... Non alcoholic, I think my favorite of all time was probably Surge. Vault is a pretty decent followup though, enough to be considered my "new" favorite sweet drink. But other than water and milk, I mostly drink coffee and tea.
Alcohol, well there really isn't much I won't drink. I'm partial to beer though. Anything and everything, from the nastiest 8% ice malt liquor to the tastiest microbrew. I'm partial to Bells Oberon, though it is unfortunately a local and seasonal brew and thus not always available. As far as what's easily available though, Coor's is usually my choice.
Back in my early 20s, my favorite thing to do was mix cheap liquor with a sports drink, such as Gatorade. Take two or three big gulps out of a 32oz bottle, (roughly down to the top of the label, if I remember right) and refill back to the cap with vodka or gin. Seemed to help a bit with dehydration, on top of being pretty good too.
Most wine gives me wicked heartburn, with or without acid medicine. Doesn't seem to matter if it is Boone's Farm or top dollar stuff, so I generally avoid it.
