Just one? I used to be a rum and coke fan but I don't drink Coke anymore, or any soda really, so I discovered Captain Morgan's original spiced rum tastes mighty fine with chocolate rice milk.

I also love Porn Stars, screech, coconut rum, and fireball whiskey.

Yay! Someone else who likes screech! I like the stuff too. My friends think I'm insane. But then they also think I'm insane for liking lapsang souchong. Mmmm that tea gives one a good kick in the face.

Coconut rum, or any really hard alcohol is really too strong for me. Sake is a little strong, but it tastes like wine. It's so good, I find myself drinking it every night. =]

I'm not too familar with mixed drinks. What are porn stars and screech?

A cocktail I threw together last New Year's Eve, which I've called an Old Gregg (obviously there are other names for the same drink mix, but that's the name I chose and that's the name it'll have).

Creme de Menthe and Mint Chocolate Baileys. Creamy beige goodness with a swirl of minty green, best drunk out of a shoe.

It seriously tastes amazing, though I'll admit I've never actually tried it out of a shoe.

For regular drinks, I'm a fan of anything involving Bacardi as long as there's no coke involved.

Let me tell you a story about alcohol:

Once there was a girl called Pineapple_Juice who was such a pussy about booze she wouldn't drink the last few sips out of a Smirnoff because that's where the alcohol settles.

The end.



PS she likes weak screwdrivers and cape cods.

Screech is not a mixed drink. It's a kind of rum. So named because someone who was not from Newfoundland screeched when he had a shot of it (at least that's the legend. Saya? Can you confirm?).

When I was younger my drink of choice was tequila, but I'm not much of a drinker anymore.

I love to drink beer, and save for occasional the glass of wine at dinner, it's pretty much the only alcoholic beverage I drink.

On very rare occasions I have a glass of absinthe, though I only find that palatable with a lot of sugar.

Mine would be beer. But I like a good sho-bomb, which is martini, whiskey, and ouzo. I used to drink a fuckload of Jack n' Coke, but I refuse to buy Coca Cola products now. I adore Marseilles sledgehammers, that's 1/3 Vodka, 1/3 absinthe, 1/3 gold strike. I also like black death shots, if I remember properly, that's black vodka with gold strike.

Things go down best when there is a story to tell behind their origin.

Straight whiskey. You can't beat sipping whiskey out of the bottle.

My favourite/signature alcoholic drink would be good scotch with soda water and lots of ice in a short glass. It's been what I drink for years, my friends just order it for me and don't usually bother asking if I want anything else.

I do like red wine if I'm not going out for a big night and the weather isn't too warm. If I start drinking on a hot afternoon it'll be Bacardi with pineapple juice. I always end up with scotch and soda in the end though. Old Faithful : )

According to marketing companies, an American who was stationed here had a drink of it and just said "Ugh, what is this screech?!"

And we've been using it to haze tourists ever since.

I've become very partial to Vodka and Cranberry juice . Blame Methadrine for that one, he mentioned it! *misses Mr Meth :_( *

Jack Daniels and bitter lemon is an..aqquired taste but I like it.

Ckeeky vimto is a mix I also like, consisting of a double port with WKD blue. It doesn't taste like Vimto as such, but it is quite fruity and it certainly doesn't have that alchoholic burn after you've drunk a few. That's partly what's so deadly about this mix. It doesn't feel like you're drinking anything strong or alchoholic, but you definitely are. After 4 or so you tend to be wobbling, and when the fresh air gets you...well hello pavement!! *thud*

I rarely drink but I like sparkling white grape mixed with white wine. White wine is freakin nasty by itself but I like mixing it with sweeter non-alcoholic drinks. lol too much alcohol gives me a headache.

I'll just have to see for myself when I'm old enough to legally drink (Less than two months away!) but I'm gonna wager a guess that I'll like Kirschwasser.

Sorry, forgot you asked about porn stars too. A porn star is a shot of blue curacao and raspberry sourpuss, or what I do, a shot of each and mix with sprite. Tastes like candy! I get loaded pretty quick on those because I drink so many so fast, it tastes that good.

I'm pretty partial to Firefly but that stuff is so smooth that it is quite easy to drink far more than you realize. I'm especially fond of it mixed with lemonade, I usually make a gallon to share with friends and that calls for about half a bottle of the stuff. I am also rather fond of screaming orgasms, redheaded sluts, and royal flushes.

If I have to worry about having to stay awake, like on Friday nights at work, Vodka and Red Bull are my best friends. Which reminds me...

Haha, that's what I was thinking.

Anyway, I enjoy red wine, merlot being my first choice, but I'll drink beer on occasion, too. I haven't tried many, but my favorite so far is Sam Adam's Irish Red. I prefer hard cider to beer.

My very favorite things to drink, though, are liqueurs. My two favorites now are Voyant Chai and raspberry schnapps.
