Whats your favorite alcoholic drink? Or Is there any interesting drink that you have tried that you really love.
Im partial to bloody Mary's. I like to make my own bloody mary's. The key to a good Bloody Mary is worcestershire sauce, Molasis, and Grey Goose Vodka.
Not to mention some green olives. MMMMM...The salty goodness, I love the holidays! Gives me an excuse to throw a few back

Haven't touched alcohol in over 18 yrs. However my favorite drink still remains...H20. The non-alcoholic kind or better yet..."Give me a virgin water!"

"Rocks on rocks. Put it in a dirty glass."

-From an episode of the Flintstones

Long Island

If I'm conservative that evening I have one, otherwise it's two!

That's it.

I agree with Timberfake, I also love a good, strong Bloody Mary....Yes indeed.

Yup, I love a good B.M

LOL! Get it? B.M

Shot of chilled Wild Turkey and a Beer in the Winter Cold.
Smirnoff 100 proof and cranberry juice at parties.
Smirnoff 100 proof and pink lemonade in the summer heat.
And MARGARITA'S by the pitcher full in CABO!

Chris, would you believe you last had alcohol after I did? (Not counting Nyquil I mean.)

Andrew

Andrew-

I think you gave me my last drink!

Sucks to be them!

My favorite drink, especially during the holidays is eggnogg with lots of RUM and a little nutmeg, but not too much nutmeg. A little tid bit of info, nutmeg is a hallucinogenic, if taken too much. So go easy on the nutmeg this holiday season, ok?

I love to be meeee....I'm just wild about myself!!!

Dedicated to Beano.

Hey Chris,
I think you need to try my famous "Timberfake" Bloody Mary. It is a secret recipe, passed on down from momma Timberfake. They are so good, they will bring a tear to your eye, What do ya say Chris??

So....nutmeg is to humans what catnip is to cats.....could be fun! When someone has a little to much nutmeg grab a laser pointer and watch him chase it around the room. Ever see a cat do that high on catnip....it is hillarious.....!!!!

Justin, if you can't make your own, have you had a BM (sorry) made with "Lyle Style" mix from Lyle, WA. So Yummy! You can get it at Safeway, and it's also great without any liquor added. Great for brunch. Especially the "hot" one.

My other faves:

Ginger Snap - Vanilla Stoly/Absolut and (Diet for me) Ginger Ale. Gustav's adds a slice of candied ginger. No ginger ale? Diet Coke and Vanilla Stoly/Absolut.

The Razzatini, formerly the "Raspberry Beret", in the Cypress Room (not the restaurant) at Kennedy School...shaken, not stirred in an icy glass with vodka, fresh squeezed Lime juice, and raspberry something or other liquor (I gave up trying to make it at home)...Too darn good! I have to pace myself, they aren't cheap and they go down way too fast.

-1960s Stinger Cocktail

2 oz brandy
1 oz white creme de menthe

To serve as a cocktail: combine ingredients in a mixing glass with ice; strain into chilled cocktail glass.


Champagne Cocktail
6 ounces chilled champagne
1 cube sugar
Angostura bitters

Soak sugar cube with Angostura bitters. Place the cube in the bottom of a champagne flute. Fill with champagne. Garnish with a lemon twist.

Pre-Diabetes:

The Shakespeare at Hubers
Cadillac Margarita, Rocks
La Cazuela at LaCarretta
(basically a tasty Bowl o' Booze and fruit juice that goes down way too easy, until you stand up)

Micros
Nice Wine
Port/Dessert wines

Justin,

Can you share the "secret recipe" here without Momma killing you? Otherwise you'll have to have us all over to sample a batch.

I'm a big fan of Maker's Mark on the rocks, with dash of sweet vermouth. The key is the crushed ice from the fridge. A couple of those and I have no worries.

Another favorite of mine is the "Snake Shake" that can only be had at "Al Amir".

I'm also a big fan of Widmer Hef, Black Butte Porter, and Full Sail Amber. In fact, I brewed batch of homebrew today, which will be similar to a Jubel Ale, kind of a festive beer. Hopefully it turns out good.

Tomorrow morning after I wake up and have a good B.M. (LOL) I'll have to stop by the liquer store. Those sound Tasty Merkin!
Ps- Momma Timberfake wishes to everyone on PDX the warmest, candy cane filled holidays!

Oh I do remember those days. I certainly don't miss them, but I do remember them.

Justin thanks for the offer.

Elvis has gone to bed.

Found this while doing show prep:

It's not enough to have chocolate milk, chocolate liqueur and just plain chocolate candy bars--now beer maker Anheuser-Busch has created chocolate beer! But forget chugging or beer bonging; it's recommended for sipping at room temperature like you would an after-dinner drink. It's the third flavor in A-B's special holiday line that was launched in 2005. It joins last year's Michelob Celebrate Vanilla Oak and Budweiser Brew Masters' Private Reserve. The chocolate brew is 8.5 percent alcohol by volume, higher than a regular Budweiser at 5 percent, so you can get a buzz with your sweets! (St. Louis Post Dispatch)

AMF!
AMF!
AMF!

Trixter, you are a naughty boy! These are as dangerous as a Long Island.

Dang....three of those and you be tanked!!LOL

Probably goes something like:

1st AMF

2nd Aaa Mmm FFffffffff

3rd AAAaaa e i ou...........clunk hitting the floor!

I've got to get some Blue Curacao ASAP!

When it comes to liquor: Maker's Mark (on the rocks), Patron Silver(on the rocks with extra squeezed lime), and Pearl Persinamon sp? vodka. On occassion Tuaca, B&B, Appleton Estate Rum, Goldschlager.

When it comes to mixed drinks: Maker's coke, vodka cranberry, Authentic Margaritas, Capprhini's sp?, Mojito's, Manhattan's, Key Lime Drops, Guava tini's, Duckfarts, well Long Island's, and yes a good ole spicy Bloody Mary especially on hung over Sunday morning's with breakfast.

When it comes to beer and wine: Lindeman's Framboise, McMenehmin's Hard Cider, Wandering Angus Hard Cider, Heineken, Tecate, Fat Tire, Wasson Brothers Winery in Sandy (some of the best sparkling wines made in Oregon, St Innocent Pinot Blanc (tastes like a crisp granny smith apple), and Covey Run Winery in WA's Gewurtzminer.

Its Hard Liquour Hand Gun night in Oregon! High quality vodka is is the only way to go.

Yee HAH!!!

Gimme a shot O wiskey in a dirty glass barkeep....an leave the bottle.

Got my colt Peacemaker an ready to ROCK!

Fresh out of the looney bin and ready to tear it up!!!!!LOL

Just Kidding.....Still in the looney bin.....there about 40 hours a week...!!!!LOL

I'm partial to The Warner:
Maker's Mark on the rocks. Drink, rinse, repeat as neccessary.

Beer, the darker the better.
Wine, the redder the better.

Remember, don't mix, and always go up the ladder, never back down.

What the hell were we talking about again?

Ok, I'm fricking clueless!

What's with the always go up the ladder bit?

I'm a weenie when it comes to booze. I drink a few times per year, with friends and during special times. Fill me in on the booze lore please!

The next social needs to happen soon, since I don't drink at home! I'll have what Shyguys having or:

Dark Appleton or Meyers & pineapple juice; or my usual well drink, tequila-OJ-pineapple (pre-diabetes)
Ditto on Lindeman! I love the Lindeman Kriek (Cherry), and the Framboise if no Kriek; they sometimes have it on tap at Higgins, so tasty!

I also had a St. Innocent something recently that was divine!

No scotch, whiskey, or bourbon for me, a little incident on my 21st scarred me for life..."Tool Kits" at the lodge bar at Black Butte. And they still make 'em! Taste like a chocolate milkshake on the way down.

Man, are we getting back to being able to do that again? (Was fun to meet a few people!)

Sweet!

Ideally, you know who won't insert themselves into it this time around!

A social. Yes. Please keep me in the loop on that.

Gin and Tonics ( Bombay Sapphire and tonic, two limes ).

Best bloody mary I have ever had was made by a bartender at Gustav's.

Spanish Coffees at El Gaucho. That's spanish for " The Gaucho " ( Hold the orange liquer and the show, please ). I didn't realize how local of a drink that was until I got blank stares at bars from San Francisco to New Orleans.

And you know, readin' this board, every once in a while, makes me think that it's not so much drinks that we need, but drugs.

Imagine this group after two joints passed around. Go ahead. I'll wait...

Yeah. Terrible idea.

Mrs. Merkin said>>>
Can we have those at the beach next year? The blue is very patriotic for July 4th! Who needs fireworks? Oh wait? Are we going on Labor Day?

YES! My wife LOVES the mixed drinks!!!!
As Labor Day gets closer I will be e-mailing directions to whomever wants them! Even Wayne!!!!! Sorry guys.... He is part of this board and I'm going to invite him no matter what.

The Beach....

Have a great location for you guys....there is a great stretch of beach on the sea of cortez so all of you meet the first week of october in Cabo San Lucas and help Sammy celebrate his bday at Cabo Wabo!!!!

WAhooooo

Are YOU paying our way down there??? Rockaway is a hell of a lot closer than Cabo.....

Anyone else like Snow Plow from Widmer? Only available in the winter...

Hmmmmm....let me check my bank account.....NOTTT

God that town would never be the same again if all of you got together down there.....Someone would need to bring a Mr Microphone so the group would not have withdrawls!!!LOL Maybe someone could DJ for Sammy at the concerts!!!! At least for one or two songs until the Cabo Wabo Tequila worked it's magic!!!
If I hit the lottery I would "And You Can Take That To The Bank". Think that was a liner from a Steven Segal movie.

Well at least Rockaway will not be the same afterwards......!!!
Don't forget the Mr. Microphone......

"Anyone else like Snow Plow from Widmer? Only available in the winter..."

The IPA they put out for their summer seasonal is always top-notch.

Give me a good IPA and I am a VERY happy man.

I like the Snow Plow and Jubel Ale. Also like the Obsidian Stout, and Rubenator (half ruby, half terminator).

Shenanigans on the Willamette now Shenanigans on the Columbia serves up a mean AMF.
Limit one per person per visit.....
When it was on the Willamette we had a nickname for it that fir it perfectly
We called it "1000 flushes" Looked like a toilet bowl full of blue water and it took a 100 flushes by the time you were done praying to the porcelain god.....LOL

Fat Tire is very good!
YUMMY!

I agree with the Fat Tire, basically one of the few beers I like to drink.

I like that blonde ale from Windemere as well.

Lot's of Fat Tire this Labor Day people!!!!
RIBS!
CHCIKEN!
STEAK!
CORN on the COB!
WINE!

Directions and times will be coming as it gets closer!

I like the Blonde at Windemere!!!!

More to come. If you don't like your seating arrangement. Too bad!

I would like to squeeze in with Christaylor and KSKD if possible. Although I'm tall and would probably have to have shotgun for the leg room.

Just so long as I don't get stuck behind that smokin Merkin Mobile.....!!!!!

How much oil does that "Pacer" burn a day anyway??? LOL

1/2 quart on a good day

Timberflake can bring Mr Microphone....

What say we all do a pool on the next big lottery and win the sucker.

Then we could all give our bosses a TO DAY notice!

He boss i'm giving my TO DAY notice....i'm out of here TODAY!!!!! HAHHHHH LOL

Don't know that I want the Merkin mobile behind me either on the downside of the coast range.....the brakes will probaly quit working and well see a smokin, screamin, pacer race past us...!!!LOL
Wayne can lead off the prayer for salvation in the car that "GOD" once sat in......remember....John Denver..."OH GOD"...

BTW......look at the title of this thread.....

Since when can a drink be an alcoholic?????

LOL!!!

Would the cars actually get there?

Depends on who's driving them....we may have bumper cars on the way to the coast if certain people get behind the wheels.....I know.....tag your it....we can do car tag on the way there....whoever's it last has to buy the whiskey....

I am NOT driving, because I'm havin' an AMF on the way, and Justin, no fair, you don't get to pick your own road posse. We need to draw names out of a hat.

We'll also need rest stops at Spirit Mountain Casino and Camp 18. SM makes a mean BM!

I predict Jaquel and Wayne will make out by midnight Saturday, despite the whole Jewish issue. Probably in the WeenerMobile.

CJ, you cannot call "shotgun" 'cuz you're driving! I get shotgun!

CHICKENJUGGLER'S CONTRACT RIDER FOR RIDERS -

#1. I am an excellent designated driver. I NEVER drink and drive. However, I have no problem with others drinking while in my car while I am driving. But when we get to where we are going, I drink. Immediately.

#2. I smoke. However, I do not do it in a car or in a house. I'm very conscientious about it and will walk very far away to make sure no smoke gets in anyones face. I always have gum and you'd never know that I smoke by looking at me. I don't know what that means but I am told by many poeple that they are surprised that I smoke. Good. That's good. Right?

#3. I have a large car with comfy seats.

#4. I am a good driver. I do not take risks or stupid chances. However, given a safe chance to pass someone, I will in a heartbeat. And where it is straight and clear, I will exceed the speed limit.

#5. I like to drive. I actually prefer it. However, anyone that rides in my car listens to my music. I play to the audience though. I will NOT be the guy that is at a party going " SHHH! SHHH! GUYS - Listen to this SOONNNGGGG, man! " I have been that guy. I am no longer that guy. I hate that I ever WAS that guy. I killed him.

#6. I like to sleep in and stay up very late. If I drive someone somewhere, I am not your guy if you, you know, need to leave early.

#7. That " hair of the dog " remedy for hangovers is a terrible LIE!! Two Advil gel-caps before I go to bed and I should be OK.

#8. I don't do shots. ( Oh...Patron? OK - Just these 7 though ). But I drink beer really quickly and never drink the last inch. It's warm and flat and I went to college. Don't bother trying to shame me into finishing my last inch. It won't work.

#9. I need a bed. Futon will work too. Couch and/or floor will not work.

#10. I like my grapes peeled and fed to me at room temperature at 11:30 a.m.

#11. If anything stronger than pot get's brought out, I don't want to do it. Thanks for the offer. I like it too. Just not anymore. Not my thing. Not judging - just taking a pass. Maybe next time.

#12. I like skim milk and there will need to be some on hand at all times. Skim. Cold. Milk.

#13. I am an excellent cook. I LOVE to cook. If any chance avails itself to cook for a gang, I'm in.

#14. I'm fortunate to have some money in my life. I'll treat for a lot of things if you let me. But I won't force you. But I'll ask if I can. You can say No. I won't feel slighted.

#15. I'm a Leo. But not your typical Leo. I like to listen. Really...hey...why are you laughing?...AAAAAAnnnnyway. I have no desire to be the center of attention. Zero. But if I find a new buddy, well, we'll laugh. Promise.

chickenj sez: "I have a large car with comfy seats."

I'm not sure that's entirely true seeing that it's a Pacer, but if that is what mrs. m said to cinch your decision to buy her car, well, I'll go along.

and for jeffery and bookem and friends, we'll borrow Trix's Slant 6 1963 Dodge Dart, the one with the Pontiac "GTO" emblems on the grill.

Poor Merkin is in the same car as Jacquel and Wayne! Id rather slice my big toe off than be in the same car with Wayne and Jacquel! Talk about TORTURE!
Bring your cattle prod merkin! Trust me, you'll be using it on Wayne to get him to shut up and you'll use it on Jacquel because.....well she is just annoying!

Shotgun.

I call shotgun.

I don't CARE what the rules are. I call it.

Never again in my lifetime will I be associated with a Chrysler product. I'd sooner take a Yugo with a missing door -- easier to push Cochise out at highway speeds. Then Beano and I could eat at some Mexican restaurants along the way while waiting for the Yugo to be fixed.

Since Jeffrey is in my neighborhood these days maybe I could give him a lift also.

I may have to dump Jeffrey after I listened to Chix's show and read the above. Skim Milk? Cook? Oh, Lordy.

Skep, I just couldn't part with the Pacer, so I sold him my '82 white on white Caddy Coupe de Ville. The one with 20,000 gramma miles on it.

We can bring my YUGO!! I just gave it a new wax job today! It looks so perty~!

Justin, I hope you and Chris T. realize you're "cruisin for a bruisin" with the "Slug Bug" Master of the Universe. Dress accordingly.

Meant anyone....

We have some church going folk here don't we? Why don't we rent out a church camp near Rockaway? I think there are many in the vacinity. That way we all have a bed and shower for the festivities.

Being that this is indeed a radio board I think that someone is gonna have to bring a stash of sticky icky. Royal Blueberry Blunts anyone? LOL

I'll volunteer to cook us all breakfast in the mornings.

I would hope that this a kids prohibited event too.

Ebeniezer from Bridgeport Brewery and Full Sail Amber Ale.

Pendelton Whiskey!

Damn straight!

If you're gonna play slug bug, might as well play it RIGHT!

Ness have you compared the regular 10yr or is it 12yr Pendelton vs the 20yr Pendelton. Both good but the twenty year is more flavorful and pleasently better than the 10/12yr.

Thanks all, i'm feeling pretty darn left out. I guess I'll just drive down on my own.

I'd really like to sub in to the car for Wayne. Sittin' right next to Merky, that'd be good times!

Wayne can drive with Deane and Herb in thier brown '86 Taurus with the cassette deck.

Oh Warner, I was just thinking about us forgetting you! I feel terrible!

Maybe we need to have all the Ex-KINK board members ride together on the way back...absolutely NO Tree Top Flyer, Sting, Bonnie Raitt, Tracy Chapman, or Phil Collins.

And please add the Taurus to the ugly car list.

Thanks dear, I knew you'd still care. I guess I just don't yell loud enough here to be remembered.

We'll have some fun, for sure! Tequila is required.

What was this thread about, anyway?

Cabo Wabo shots.....sounds like a plan.....

How about Cabo Wabo shots while listening to The Red Rocker on a ghetto blasters,and we can bust out are Van Halen Circa 1986 concert tank tops. What do ya say Joamon?

Hell Ya....count me in!!

You ever get that sammy picture?

Hey
Check out FatBoys car just posted in matching cars...Fits him to the James "T"
Also found a picture of yours and merkins..LOL

Hey Joamon is that you in the pic with Sammy??

No...It was just a solo of Sammy....on 8.5X11 photo stock...really cool so guess not.

here's a good picture of sammy:

http://www.kodak.com/global/images/en/motion/newsletters/inCamera/oct2001/cheers 01.jpg

ThE Red Rocker has much better hair,and isin't wearing a hair piece like THAT sammy Malone.

Hey...you remember what my two favorite Sammy tunes were?

van Halen OR sammy solo??

Sammy..

You Got Mail...

"your love is driving me crazy" by The Red Rocker??


That is very high on the list!

#1 and #2 are actually pretty equal

Eagles Fly
and
Give to Live

Version from "Live Hallejulah" of Eagles Fly is Awesome!!! That whole album is...I cannot beleive that it seems he has actually gotten better whereas others rockers his age are showing it....Sammy just keeps on Rockin....!!!!

Living on a Coastline in the top ten as well!

Yes Joamon I do know who you are, it is pretty obvious. You're Tiny right????
Just kidding.

Calling me tiny is like saying politicians don't lie. LOL
Although lost 50 pounds last year and going for 50 more this year.

That issue you mentioned...it was not me right?

Top 5 Best Van Hagar songs
5. Summer nights
4. Humans Beings
3. Poundcake
2. Finish What you started
1. Right Now

I'll get back to you on my top five....gotta take my daughter to voice lessons.....tomorrows Carrie Underwood!!!!

Just wondering on that other thing either way.

C'mon Joamon, Im waiting for your top 5 Van Hagar songs!!!
By the way, what other thing are you talking about? Please do explain.

Okay....top six:
(Classic Sammy Only Though)

#6 Marching To Mars
#5 Two Sides Of Love
#4 Inside Looking In
#3 Give To Live
#2 Remember The Hero's
#1 Eagle's Fly

Ok Joamon, I was talking Van Hagar not Sammy Solo.
Im waiting on the Van Hagar songs.

OK...working on it now...

#5 Can't Stop Lovin' You
#4 Feels So Good
#3 Love Walks In
#2 When It's Love
#1 Right Now

Saw your other post on Cheese Dogs....LOL
Now I know where that came from...!!

I like Cheddar Brots but not the Oscar Meyer Wieners.

"can't stop lovin you" - Totally forgotten about that one. The Cd "balance" which was one of the more recent van Hagar albums totally kicked ass. That album also featured the song "don't tell me what love can do" another awesome, but forgotten Van hagar song. In my opinion, the best Van Hagar albums were put out in the 90's not the 80's. The 80's Van hagar albums were too watered down.
Just my two cents,
which is nowhere as cool as fity cent!

What was the question????

not sure, But i don't think so.

do we really want to know what this code-talk between between joamon and justin is all about??? I've a hunch it has nothing to do with Van Halen or Sammy Hagar . . .

Hey Justin...

Think I may have you confused with someone else with the same interests! But you sure sound like him! He lives (or used to anyway) in Vancouver.

No matter though...."Sammy Rocks"

You ever catch one of his shows at any of the WABO cantina's?

I have not, but I sure do want to.

Cinco De Mayo at Tahoe Cabo Wabo cantina. Be there or NOT!

>>>"Wayne can drive with Deane and Herb in thier brown '86 Taurus with the cassette deck."

It would be most appropriate if all of the conservatives road with me in my new Republican inspired Cadillac Sedan Deville with heated and air conditioned leather seats.

Woah, Big pimpin' with style!

(I've some rightie envy there --heated seats are the best!)

Did 'ya get the vibrate option?

>>>"Did 'ya get the vibrate option?"

Not in the seats.

I don't wanna KNOW!!!!

I like a good stiff one every night. (No pun intended)

Ya Sure....Probably go for the ole screwdriver I bet! LOL

Anyone try the new Bailey's mint or caramel?

/Lets get this thread back on track or let it die already ok?

Nope Joamon, I actually Prefer Sex on the beach (no pun intended)

How about some shots???

Put the Wild Turkey in the freezer overnight then do shots the next day!! Nice and cold going down then after a few of those you get this incredible warm rush as the anti-freeze starts flowing through you!!

Shyguy, have you tried either of the new Bailey's? I hate buying booze in Oregon, it's twice as expensive as CA or NV.

Anybody driving down that way soon? I have a shopping list!

No I haven't that is why I was asking. I too have a shopping list for the next person headed to CA or NV with an empty trunk and a wallet that will at least on the way be stuffed with cash.

As of Friday night, Patron is off my list.

Uh-oh! Will he be back by Thanksgiving?

Is there any left? Can I have it? I'll trade you for it...

Chickenjuggler I hope your not saying that your finished with Patron all together. That'd be a shame a god damned shame.

When it comes to tequila the Patron label is my first choice followed closely by Souza.

Anyone ever try an FIP? Fruit Infused Patron. Recipe calls for an infusion or suntea jar (for half the batch size that is) Sliced Mango, Pineapple, and seedless watermelon, and shaved ginger layered to the top of the jar. Fill jar with 3 fifths Patron Silver and ! fifth Citronge orange liquor by Patron. Let mixture marinate for 12 to 24 hours at room temperature.

This amazing concoction of a cocktail can be served many different ways. Shaken with ice then strained and served up in a Martini or Margarita glass, with soda, tonic, or 7up with a squeeze of lime. As you get to the fruit place it in a freezer till frozen and then blend as you would with a frozen Matgarita or blend with vanilla ice cream for an amazing adults only milkshake.

How does CABO WABO tequila stack up against PATRON??

Ok, can we stop with the Cabo Wabo stuff yet? Jeez, just move there! Or buy a timeshare.

I prefer Diamond Dave's Daquiris.

Boazie boazie bop.

Was not referring to the place this time Merkin(and yes I will quit with that)....actually have never had the tequila and was wondering about the booze not the place!!! It has a high price just like Patron and was wondering how the two compared to each other.

Patron is a much better product when it comes to a premium tequila. And the price point is really where you start to see why. Where Patron starts at around $45 a bottle Cabo Wabo starts I believe $55 a bottle. With Cabo Wabo you are paying for a name and the not nessacary reminiscing of your last trip to Cabo San Lucas.

I have tried Cabo Wabo tequila in Cabo and was impressed but why buy it states side? Oh and don't forget the fact that you really don't have to go to Cabo anymore for that Cabo Wabo experience when you can go to Lake Tahoe's Harvey's Hotel and Casino and experience Tahoe Wabo.

/Sorry Mrs Merkin

When it comes to tequila in general though ask your self a couple of questions the next time your at the liqour store perusing the shelf and deciding which tequila your gonna buy.

If your going for shooters of tequila go with a cheaper less expensive choice in a Jose Cuervo (yuck), or Souza Hornito's. You can shoot a super premuim silver or resposado if you want too but I would not.

If your going for margaritas and cocktails go for a blanco/silver tequlia or a resposado. Now this all depends on if your using a mixer or are putting the margarita togehther in the classic traditional recipe. I have had many margaritas with rot gut tequila that were good but if you want a more sophesicated margarita I would suggest buying the cheapest 100% Agave tequila you can find ie Souza Hornitos or Tarantula Azul or blanco. Spend the time to squeeze the fresh lime juice with just the tequila and a splash of Cointreau. But if its just a cheap sugary mixer it doesn't matter.

When it comes to the more expensive premiums like Cabo Wabo, Tres Generations, or Patron I prefer these drinking methods. Silver: sip on the rocks with lime, or on occasion a super premium Lexus margarita (yeah its not a Caddiliac anymore). Resposado: on the rocks or just plain neat for sippin'. Anejo: straight up neat in a snifter great for after dinner and a great alternative to a brandy, cognac, or liquor.

Mrs Merkin I almost forgot too. You have mentioned in the past that you like me are pre diabetes. Here is a suggestion for the next time you want a semi-diabetic cocktail. If your tired of diet mixers try going to your local health food store and pick up a bottle of Agave Syrup which doesn't spike the blood sugar like other sweeteners and sugar. If you like lemonade try the Agave Lemonades on the market. They make great subsitutes for drinks that call for sweet and sour.

Shyguy....

Next spring a new one will hit St Louis as well.
Will have to check it out. Am there every year in October.

BTW...Going to Medford next week but I do not think I want to brave the Siskiyou pass to go to California for Booze! Sorry guys but with the freezeing levels dropping and top of pass at 4,300 feet it just seems to risky for me to try. Maybe next time!

Tres Generations and Hussong's 99% Agave Reposado (the black bomb) are my favorites!

Thanks Shyguy, I had given up on both margs and lemonade, and I love them dearly.

Joa, I'm just giving you a hard time, carry on with VH and Cabo. I'm just jealous.

Mrs Merkin I forgot about Hussongs very fn' good tequlia and at a good price too. I still prefer Patron over Souza's Tres Generations but the price point is a better on though.

Joamon I have yet to check out the Cabo Wabo website. Don't quite understand the St Louis location.

Sammy was given the nickname in St. Louis. See the following article for more info.

What is a beautiful you may ask?
Double shot
1/2 Hennessy
1/2 Grand Marnier

As well, don't know if you knew, but Nutmeg taken intraveneously is lethal.

Yum!

(And we've missed you!)

I had a great drink at the bar the other night.
The drink was called "Alien Urine"
sooo good!
Ingredients: Enjoy!

1/2 oz Midori melon liqueur
1/2 oz Peach schnapps
1 oz Coconut rum
1 part Sweet and sour
1 part Orange juice
Mixing instructions:

This drink is ideally made in a 16 ounce glass, but can also be made in a Collins glass. The drink is served on the rocks. Add the Midori, Malibo, and Schnaps. Add juices. Shake in a tin. Garnish with either two cherries or with a kiwi wheel.

My favorite drink:

Take a fifth of Jack....give your car keys to the designated driver if necessary....remove the cap....tip the bottle and skip the glass! Repeat as necessary until desired numbness (and usually dumbness) is achieved! :~b

That must be the Darktemper special

Yep.....gets me guite numb and dumb fairly quickly and not necessarily in that order as I am half way to dumb to begin with!!!!! LOL

If you can't laugh at yourself then who can you laugh at!!!
