Mine was a (very much under age) visit to the King James Wetherspoons in Cheshunt. I ordered a massive hug of woo woo. It was grim. Grin

I didn't need alcohol from a pub. My grandparents had a fully stocked liquor cabinet and offered me a drink every time I went there Grin

toolazytothinkofausername · 11/09/2021 10:58

I really miss that cabinet... and my grandparents Sad

A Bacardi breezer. I was 17 and a bit.

I don't drink at all now but when I did I could only really liked the ones that tasted of lemonade so I loved this, Smirnoff ice and Metz mostly for the judderman. I did like a nice Harvey wallbanger as well but I was a lot older by that point.

My first ever alcoholic drink was strongbow cider in the park with my friend. We got absolutely hammered. Brilliant Grin

Pernod and blackcurrant.
I was very classy for a fourteen year old😁

1st Malibu and pineapple

2nd Bianco and lemonade

MalteserGeezee · 11/09/2021 11:16

Cinzano and lemonade?! I mean, wtf?! Felt really sophisticated

BusySittingDown · 11/09/2021 11:18

Lager and black times 3. The other two were for my pussy ass friends who wouldn't go to the bar as they were scared! 😂

I had no fucking clue what to order. I was 15.

TheChosenTwo · 11/09/2021 11:18

A southern comfort and coke!
I remember it well, my friend and I were 15 and we thought if we ordered alchopops they would be suspicious so I had the southern comfort and she had half a Stella Grin
Neither of us enjoyed the drinks but we only drank sweet stuff at home!
I haven’t touched southern comfort since then.

BusySittingDown · 11/09/2021 11:19

@MalteserGeezee, I bloody love a Cinzano and lemonade!

Ellarain · 11/09/2021 11:21

A bottle of Budweiser, I was 15.

Hellocatshome · 11/09/2021 11:22

Taboo and Lemonade

Mammyloveswine · 11/09/2021 11:22

Malibu and Diet Coke, no ice so it didn't water it down Grin

Cinders22 · 11/09/2021 11:23

Half a lager and blackcurrant - aged 13

@findnonnaadress

Very underage, 14 or 15. It was a bar called Roadhouse in Covent Garden. It was there for years. I ordered a Sol (like corona) with lime
Oh god, The Roadhouse Grin. I celebrated one of my birthdays there. Possibly my 19th.

The first drink I ordered in a pub was probably a lager top (lager topped with lemonade) or lager, lime and lemonade.

LadyOfTheFlowers · 11/09/2021 11:35

Archers and lemonade

SymbollocksInteractionism · 11/09/2021 11:37

Most likely a long vodka or vodka, lime and soda

ThePug · 11/09/2021 11:47

Pretty sure it would've been a Smirnoff Ice in a pub called The Eagle, but better known amongst the local sixth formers as The Illegal Grin

RiverSkater · 11/09/2021 11:48

Half a lager and lime in Snobs Nightclub in Birmingham. I was 15. 😊

WaggleToWarlock · 11/09/2021 11:51

Pont of bitter because that's what real men drink. It was absolutely revolting but I finished it anyway.

Badabingbadabum · 11/09/2021 12:42

Actually ordered rather than drank on a bench? Think it was a pint of Guinness. I'd have been about 16 maybe.

Vodka and white.
Me too. Always vodka and white to distinguish it from brown or red lemonade in Ireland

Cinzano and lemonade - aged 14.
