  • I swear, I think I should've been a bar tender. Loving all these recipes and ideas!

    Oh, @phira, huckleberries = heaven! We do the same thing when we go to MT…just load up on shit and bring back anything we can get our hands on. Had I known there was vodka, I might never have left the state!

  • Mmmmmmm I wanna drink now!! Current favorite is effen Cucumber and soda with a lime. I call it a spa water. My go-to drink at a bar is usually a vodka tonic lime. I love white wine sangria too, but that's back to wine again...FI's current fave is Jack Daniels Honey on the rocks. Neither of us touch brown liquor or liquor straight up, but this one is just soooo good and sweet!

    I love to drink seasonal drinks. Darker beers in the fall, spiked coffee in the winter, mojitos/margaritas in the summer time. Oh, and Oberon. Lots of Oberon. @lolo883, you're from MI, right? Are you an oberon girl?

  • @mschristie123‌ I am from Michigan! I'm not as big an Oberon fan as some. I need to give it another try.

  • Rum and Coke Lemoncello martini Pom-tini Strawberry Daiquiri Raspberry Bellini Amaretto Sour Bailey's on the rocks I'm not sure what it's called, but I had this at a resort and it was so good! Half Pina Colada - Half Strawberry Daiquiri

    Gin & Tonic and Sam Summer is my summer drinks. I love jack and coke for winter. Sangria and margarita year round.

    Well cheers to that! That our state could provide you some pleasure. And I highly recommend a tour of the New Belgium Brewery, should you ever find yourself in CO. Fun + free beer = score!

    I'll be there in 2 weeks! But I think I'm booked with bridesmaid duties the whole time.

    I usually grab a margarita or wine if we're out somewhere.  If we're at home I pretty much exclusively drink whatever beer we have in our fridge or a Malibu coconut rum with Dr. Pepper.  If I'm knotting I swig back some of the Dr. Pepper to make room in the can for the rum.  It's super sweet but I'm addicted.
  • I am a cocktail girl all the way. HATE beer and very rarely will I have a glass of wine. I LOVE RUM..and am a rum snob. Captain and Coke is my all-time, can't go wrong favorite. And at home its usually captain & cherry dr. pepper :) I also will drink Sailor Jerry's instead of captain but that is the only other spiced rum I will substitute. anything else rum related is usually a favorite--hurricanes, rum runner, daiquiri, etc. we don't go wine tasting, but we host rum tastings whenever the opportunity strikes. One of our favorite adventures on our honeymoon in Kauai was the rum plantation where we got to go rum tasting. I do not like Vodka! Yes, it was the first thing that made me sick and pretty much every awful hangover had something to do with vodka so I just stay away now. I also like Disaronno on the rocks when we are out and I just want to sip on something and be fancy.

    Everyone thinks I'm weird when I drink this, but it's so good!

  • I love sangria, too, but I'm too lazy to make it myself. Vodka cranberries or rum and Coke I can knock up at home quickly and easily.
  • I have three favorite cocktail/mix drinks!

    The bees knees

    Dirty Shirely

    And malibu rum mix with either dr.pepper or some mango/peach juice

  • At Christmas time, eggnog, Vernors and Disaronno. Soooooo much yum.

    I haven't been drinking many cocktails lately. I usually just go for a long island, knowing it will get me drunk. I do need ideas for a signature drink so I'll be watching. We will probably have whiskey sours because that's FI's favorite but I'd like another, preferably blue, but tasty and inexpensive > color. 

    In the summer we like to take that Simply strawberry lemonade and mix it with vodka and Fresca. We call them Tijuana Surprises for some ridiculous reason. I don't remember how we came up with that other than some inappropriate joke. 

    My favorite beer is Rogue Dead Guy out of Oregon but it's so hard to find here. I really want a keg of it at our wedding but it would be like $500 for a little one boooooo.

    The resort I had that at called it a Miami Vice.

    It depends on my mood I can either do all the girly fruity drinks or I stick with Jack and coke.

  • Well I just woke from 11 hours of sleep, and I'm pretty sure the imbibing & suggestions in this thread had something to do with it. Thanks, ladies :)

  • Maragaritas are my favorite. Really, anything with tequila.

    Lemonade with berry vodka and a splash of blue curaçao?

  • FI and I are big into absinthe. We drink it in different cocktails a lot but mostly we just drink it. Well... You can't just drink it there is a bit of a process. 

    I also discovered the yummiest thing ever. It is mango rum with canned peaches (the juice and all). It is sooo good.

    I discovered my love of it the Old Absinthe House in NOLA! So good. Too good.

  • I love Scotch, whiskey, and bourbon. I am especially fond of Balvenie Doublewood.

    Recently, though, I have been enjoying a nice Redd's with dinner. It's good times.

    It is so good. FI is really into "absinthe culture". We actually have a glass set with the special spoons and everything. I'm perfectly aware of how silly this is going to sound but I love using them because it makes me feel a little like I'm a bohemian in Paris... Lol.
  • I'm not huge on beer except for Corona, but I looooove hard apple cider. It comes in a tall can just like beer, some even come in bottles. Alexander Keiths makes one that is pretty good but the best is called Somersby. Amazing and soooo refreshing in the summer.
