CJ, I don't think I can help you with trendy drinks because I'm pretty much old school. I don't drink alcohol very often, but when I do, I like a strong bourbon 7 made with Jack Daniels (or I.W. Harper, but I can't find that around here).

Not a drinker here either....can't actually stand the taste of alcohol so if I ever do drink, it is something mixed/blended/fruity like a pina colada, daiquiri or some such. don't drink beer, wine or even champagne--unless it is in a mimosa with about 1/4 champagne and 3/4 o.j. so can't help in the "what's current" discussion...sorry

As far as alocohol goes, I don't like beer or wine ~ only sweet drinks like strawberry margaritas, strawberry daiquiris, pina coladas, etc. My favorite non-alcoholic drinks are sweet tea, Orange Dream Machine from Jamba Juice, and Coffee Bean used to have an orange/vanilla drink called the Sunrise but they discontinued it awhile back. I may have to try that vanilla vodka with orange soda that foryoubabyblue posted ~ yummy!! |

Usually white wine in the summer, red wine in the winter, and an occasional dark beer. The only liquor I tend to drink is vodka-all the others make me too shaky/pukey, etc. Unfortunately, my "doing shots" days are over. Gosh, I can remember drinking my weight in Yager.....

I have several favorites. :-) Jack and Coke Blue Hawaiian Champagne - Love it but don't have it often Strawberry Daiquiris Several others but I don't remember names well. At our favorite Steakhouse I have a drink that is served in a large mason jar. OMG, that is the best thing ever! After drinking one "jar" I have trouble walking and will be passed out cold shortly. Now I only drink half of the jar. I learned my lesson after the first time. DH saw what was happening and went to daring me to finish it off, lol, I did!! |

I only used to have a occassional drink if we were in a bar or a wedding, however after awhile I just did not like how it affected me, One drink and that was it for me, as Caddy lisa said these days I love any and all icetea. Has anyone tried the pomergrante icetea from ruby tuesday its soooooooooooooo good. Peace. Catherine

Well, I have not had a drink of alcohol in 23 years and 10 months, but when I did drink, it was whiskey sours. I don't know what is new or popular. My favorite non-alcholic beverage is sweet tea, grapefruit juice,

Screwdrivers are my standby. Vanilla vodka and coke is good too. Went out to California for a "ME" vacation and boy I LOVE MARGARITAS!!!!! I don't drink that often, maybe once a year and that's usually New Year's Eve and the DH drives because after 2 or 3 (maybe more I loose count) I'm in NO SHAPE to do anything but pass out!

| I don't do a lot of alcohol drinking anymore but still have some favorites. At brunch, a good scratch Bloody Mary, the spicier the better. On a cold winter evening a shot of Butterscotch Snappes. With dinner at a Mexican restaurant a rocks Margarita made with Hornitos. Around the campfire when they pass a bottle my favorites are Tequila Rose or Capt. Morgan Tattoo Rum. And I am not a beer drinker but my SO is a beer snob so I "taste" a lot of beer. Similar to the way people taste wine. Gee for a person that doesn't really drink all that much that, that sure is a long list.

Hmmm.... How do I reply to this post without sounding like a lush? (LOL) Nowadays, I drink maybe 3-4 times a year at the most, including New Year's and a glass of wine on holidays (most years not even that often). But back in the day, I could put away some liquor. (Ahhhh, those were the days. )One of my all time favorites has always been White Russians. Although, I'm sure I've emptied a few barrels of Maker's Mark, Jack Daniel's and Jim Beam in my younger days. If I drink anything these days, it's usually a glass or 2 of red wine or a Coors Light. .

During the summer we have been drinking ice cold hard cider. Its surprisingly refreshing. We have also made strawberry daquiris and margaritas. When it gets cold I love anything with Bailey's. Hot chocolate or coffee or even straight. |

Congratulations! Are you planning to do anything in 1 year and 2 months to celebrate the big 25? I am a wine drinker - Like Linny I drink white wine in the summer, red in the winter. I don't have the rest of Linny's drinking resume, though...

Alright, I could google the lemon martini, but there's no way I'm going to google the cowboy drink. FWIW, I am NOT a big drinker by any stretch of the imagination....I drink maybe 3-5 times a year. And if I have more than one, I usually fall fast asleep....yeah, I'm a lot of fun. LOL. cj/

If I'm having mexican food, I always have a margarita - on the rocks with salt. I also love Jack Daniels or Rum & diet coke. Vodka tonics are good. I like a martini and a cosmo once in a while. I always have a glass of red wine with pasta or steak. I have white wine with grilled tuna. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but occassionally I'll have a raspberry beer or a lite ale. The new Bud Limes are pretty good. I usually have 1-2 drinks a week. Lisa

I'm partial to a good Jack & Coke - although anymore its usually Jack & Coke Zero or Jack & Diet Coke with Lime. If I feel like splurging I'll make a modified old fashioned Squeeze 1 orange and place the juice in a suitable glass (like an old fashioned glass). Muddle in some organic natural sugar (the kind thats light brown in color, but free flowing like white sugar) Add a few cubes of ice to the glass after the sugar has dissolved. Add 1-2 shots bourbon to taste (or if you're out, rum) Give it a quick stir and pour in a dash of mariscino cherry juice and then garnish with an orange slice and a mariscino cherry. For more interesting ideas - try this website out. They'll let you search by ingredients etc etc Drink Recipes at DrinkSwap.com
