    I only drink when I have a cook out or party for holidays! But what’s a grand mariner?

    I’m definitely a wine drinker, although I usually stick to aglass or two of homemade dry red wine. I also enjoy some liquors such as sambuca, armato, limoncello and Campari. Favourite cocktails would be a toss up between the aperol spritz, the negroni sbagliato and the bellini. Although I usually settle for a vodka and red bull. Favourite beers would include coors light, corona and Stella.

    I can't do fireball. Real whiskey or no whiskey.

    True story. My grandfather homemakes limoncello an orangecello and so he gave me some and I was using it to take shots and he got super pissed at me because he said it's not a shot drink it's a sipping drink. And I'll tell you right now same as I told that old man, the only thing I'm going to be sipping on is an aged whisky.

    :D Hence why I said I usually stick to vodka and red bull. It costs less and has the same effects.

    I knew this one guy that made homemade grappa aka moonshine in his basement. Unfortunately he passed away five years ago. I’ll never forget how proud he was of his work. It definitely takes talent and hard work to make good homemade liquor and wine. I’ve never tasted anything like his in a liquor store that’s for sure.

    Fireball is only worthy of consumption in coffee with Rumchata.
    Or in my ears when yowled by Pitbull.

    That being said, back in time, i have regrettably shot fireball.

    A gin and tonic sounds mighty, mighty good to me.

    Are the Mike's Hard Lemonade still malt based in the States? Or did you all finally discover that malt based coolers are revolving, and vodka is the better option (for sickeningly sweet kid drinks)?

    Actually there are some unsweetened ones here now too that aren't really worthy of ingestion either.

    Good old fashioned rye and coke, or ginger for mixed drinks, far better than coolers anyday.

    Or...white wine slushy! Discovered that by mistake!

    Agree on the old fashioned rye and coke, recently tried gingerale and fireball, it was surprisingly good. My go to usually is just straight Makers Mark and sipping it or rum and pineapple juice.

    I also discovered Rum Cream while in Jamaica, it is awesome all on it's own and I am sad that I didn't buy more to bring home while there. I need to go back just for more Rum Cream as you can't get it in the states.

    I have never really been able to stomach malt beverages. Yuck.

    Straight Fireball, no thanks. Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Caramel Apple shots are good tho.
