What's your favourite alcoholic drink?

I always fall back on the standard rye and coke, but I also love the Speak Easy martinis at Manhattans here in Barrie (mmmm...chocolately goodness!!)
 
I rarely drink, and now even less because of the Methotrexate. But my fave is Talea, it is an Italian ameretto cream liquor. Nice on ice, kinda like Baileys only better!
 
Nyx, I don't think they do, I usually just make my own when I am craving it! p.s. love that you added 'with a hint of poo' to your signature, hah!!

When my guts allow me to drink, I enjoy:
long island iced teas,
appletinis,
and tequila rose... YUM!!!
I have a huge bottle of tequila rose sitting in my fridge that I've been afraid to touch since my diagnosis. what a shame!!
oh and wine. Love to have a glass of wine now and then with dinner.
 
Haven't had any alcohol in about 6 months, before that I always favored red wine (especially Zinfandel) and Belgian style beers. One terrific beer of this type is actually brewed by Unibroue inc. in Québec, and it's something all you Canadians can REALLY be proud of. Ironicly named "Terrible" (pronounced the French way, Tare eeb) I think it's the best beer I've ever had. Here's a description on "Beer Advocate" site http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/22/3635/


Just one more thing I miss... :depressed:
 
We still had vanilla coke up until end of last year here
tho I havnt been too see if still available now
 
I like Jagermeister, Budweiser, red wine, and screwdrivers. If I go out I like to get apple martinis or any of the curly mixed drinks will do fine. Course I have had like one glass if wine and two beers in like nine months!

oh yeh jegerbombs are the best as well :) and sambuca and tequila slammers (with skydiving if you havent seen ur mate for a mnth u have to buy each other a shot :) )
 
I used to like amaretto sours and fruity girly drinks like strawberry daiquiris and piña coladas. Now I can't even stomach the thought of alcohol. I just no longer have the taste for it anymore. Guess that's good for my Crohn's! ;)
 
Bourbon on the rocks or with Coke, Rum in just about any fashion (especially giant fruity tiki drinks), and lots of beer.
 
I like a nice glass of wine with dinner....or a good, cold beer (Yeungling, Black and Tan, Killians).......

Khalua and milk or Creme de Cassis and cream/half-n-half for dessert......
 
Thought the first drink I'll have as a legal 18 year old was a cosmopolitan so I could feel all grown up like the girls out of sex and the city and it was the most disgusting alcoholic drink ive ever tried! lol
Love Midori and Jagermeister :)

I'd laugh but I don't know what snowballs are....well, except for the real ones in the winter...but I"m pretty sure you're not referring to those...lol
 
ooh I tried winter pims last year at the german xmas market, served with hot apple juice, it was lovely! xx
 
Bombay Sapphire & Tonic Water.

Cold, very cold Sam Adams when I'm lounging in the summer.

Cuccumber Martini's if I'm on a cruise.
 
well Ive not had a drink in 15 years or so but at the time It was a double shot of Sauza Silver with a finger of salt and a lemon wedge. Beer was like drinking water and I went through a lot of Molson Canadain. That Carrona was nice stuff tho. No wonder my guts are messed up.

Oh and on those cultured nights when I rented a movie and stayed home with the wife I was known to drink the odd bottle of Bulls Blood. A wonderfully full flavored spiced red. Great with a chunk of Gouda and some mussels.

I can't drink anymore b/c of Crohn's but back when I did, my faves were amaretto sour, coffee w/ orange liquer (grand marnier), or bailey's on ice

YUMMY ;-)
 
@Pwndkake I like your "'Nerdy Twit' is an anagram for 'Trendy Wit'" :)

I also love pound cake!! With Skor bits, chocolate icing and white chocolate drizzle....mmmmm

Oooops...hijacked my own thread! lol
 
Aside from school I manage a packy so unfortunatley we get lots of "samples", lol.

I love Long Island Iced Tea's, Captain Morgan Private Stock, and good old Jack. I haven't had a drink in months though.
 
Fed up with vodka and coke, might switch over to whiskey and lemonade, though it gets me drunk quick and plays up the Crohns symptoms.
 
Hmm well at bars and clubs corona, coors light, or canadian. Long islands arent bad either.

Favorite drink is mango margarita but only ever drink those in places where nobody knows me like mexico hahaha.
 
I don't drink anymore, but I used to love sake and a good dry martini.

Now craving sangria and Long Island Iced Tea.
 
A glass of Johnnie Walker Black or Chivas Regal. Yes, I'm a scotch person and I drink it the way it's meant to; straight at room temperature.

They sell mead at my local liquor store, so I've been meaning to try that.
 
I don't drink anymore, but when I did any fruity drink did the job nicely. I also had a fondness for Jagermeister. The wife didn't, lol, so that was the end of that.
 
Favourite drinks

Amaretto Stone sours with a splash of grenidine or Champagne! Or if I'm in a bad mood - Straight Jack Daniels No Ice No Soda Just the Jack!!

Don't get to drink that much any more, maybe once or twice a year I have 1 drink.

I'm not really even that interested in liquor, only things I've ever even tried are whiskey (which was all right), and ouzo, a Greek liquor which is basically just alcohol and anise seed (which tastes just like licorice), that I have to say was pretty damn good. But I'm really a beer guy, I try all kinds of craft beers and I know most of my ins and outs with beer, some of my friends consider me a connoisseur.
 
I've not drank alcohol in 6 months , but as im not in a flare at the moment and im going on a booze cruise this Sat for a friends birthday, think i may have Vodka and lemonade
 
oh my lordy !! . . . some of those drinks sound amazing ! . . . those sours !!

yes typical wine and beer, oh and a drop o' jack.

of course a cocktail every two hundred years, even if i am not in the mood !

i wish , i wish.

very rare for a good 'oul session nowadays and the body tells me so (or should i say why)

Enjoy
 
I used to be a bit of an alchy, but I stopped back in November before I even knew I had crohn's. It just gave me the worst stomach pains, D, nausea.. everything. Back in the day (even though I'm only 20 lol) I could drink two 26's and not even throw up. Now it's two drinks and I wish I was dead.
I also am unable to burp (?!?!) never have, probably never will. I hate it, because I love beer.

Anyways, When I used to drink it was either..
-cherry vodka and diet coke
-white wine
-tequila
-guiness
-caesars

I used to pretty much live for getting drunk, but my health is more important than getting wasteballs.
 
like many others, I stopped drinking a while back.

But it used to be either Blackthorn or Sailor Jerry's Rum w/ Zevia coke

Do they still make vanilla coke?
Click to expand...

Yeah they do...at least you can get it here (cbus, ohio)

I like a straight shot of raspberry vodka or dr.pepper and vodka, or jager bombs...I'm pretty much down with anything except a 3 wiseman shot...that equals bad times
 
I don't always drink beer but when i do i prefer dos equis.
Actually, I don't drink beer at all. I prefer my Whiskey mixed with pop or straight. Also, I love a good Bloody Mary. Also, I am lower class wine snob.
 
I don't drink much but when I do I am quite boring... Vodka and Orange for me

Edit: When I'm drunk though I'll generally drink anything... Eep :ylol:
