I know I'm not Wink
Please feel free to share your favourite drinks below. I don't like wine, but am a big fan of spirits!

People fucking love gin on here.

Thebodynowchillingsothere · 23/10/2014 22:45

See white wine for me. Dead commen.

Mind you rose wine is bloody rank.

BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 22:45

Hmm, can't stand gin though, unless in a cocktail masked with shitloads of other booze!
Though yes, does seem very popular among MNers...

Tia Maria with a dash of lime cordial tastes exactly like chocolate lime sweeties Smile

raffle · 23/10/2014 22:47

Mmmmmmm, gin Grin
But also, coffee vodka.

KissMyFatArse · 23/10/2014 22:49

Sparkling Rosey, baileys, long vodka, Malibu and diet coke, desperados, kopperberg (strawberry and lime) .... I'll just leave it for there just now ....

BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 22:50

Does the Tia Maria not curdle with the lime cordial?!

BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 22:50

No no no to the bitter gin!

Malibu used to be one of my favourites, I had a bottle that I stashed under dps bed for a nightcap when we came back from the pub!Grin

No, Tia Maria won't curdle, it's yummy. V sweet so I can only have a couple.
If you want curdling (probably not lol) try Southern Comfort and Baileys ConfusedConfusedConfused

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/10/2014 23:04

Well I love vodka, and I love limes so no YANBU Grin

I like almost every type of booze going really. Margaritas are a current favourite although I do have to be careful with my tequila intake. It has been known to have some... shall we say.... interesting effects!

BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 23:04

I once made baileys and orange juice which I remember curdling terribly which is where my fears come from, but I could try this anyway :)
Always up for a booze related adventure!

Oh god, I have a mortifying tequila incident which is why I have steered clear for the last 13 years. Blush

Vodka and jagger is my favourites

Apparently jager neat with redwing is the new thing....

Archer and orange is also lovely

bridgetsmummy · 23/10/2014 23:08

I had my worst hangover ever from southern comfort and baileysConfused
Of course it had nothing at all to do with the copious amounts of diamond white I had beforehand! ( this was about 20 years ago)
I haven't touched cider since, although still love baileys and southern comfort , just not in the same glass Smile

iwishiwasacat · 23/10/2014 23:42

Ameretto sours are my favourite thing to drink.

BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 23:44

Wondering, do you mean redbull rather than redwing (which I've never heard of?!) - if so, that's. Jaegerbomb which I'll inform you now, tastes like sweat Envy

And Bridget's, a southern comfort evening aged 16 resulted in me not leaving my bed unless to use the bathroom for 48 hours - which still wasn't as bad as the tequila night!

OP posts:
BreadForBrains · 23/10/2014 23:44

Ooh yes iwish, I love an amaretto sour!

OP posts:
iwishiwasacat · 23/10/2014 23:48

I think I might have to treat myself to one on Saturday night Grin

I've never liked beer or wine but I love a good fruity cocktail!

SixPeaches · 24/10/2014 00:06

Gin, red wine, navy rum, whiskey/bourbon- especially a whiskey sours

NOT Southern Comfort. Can't even stand the smell anymore. Caused the worst hangover ever.

TheWholeOfTheSpook · 24/10/2014 00:15

Homemade blueberry vodka with a a splash of lemonade and then topped up with soda is a big hit in this house!

19lottie82 · 24/10/2014 10:09

I love mojitos, but bog standard drinks wise I like a nice draught lager, or a brandy / JD and coke. mmmmm

Mammanat222 · 24/10/2014 10:18

Pinot Grigio all the way for me! Or Prosecco.

Love a lager and line on a summers afternoon (Sol / Corona with a wedge of lime)

Baileys with ice is my Crimbo drink.

Grey Goose Vodka when we're flush enough to afford it.

Cocktails it has to be a Cosmo (or a Porn Star Martini but these aren't as common and the only place that does a decent one near me closed down)

Other than that I am teetotal

Actually I am 28 weeks pregnant so currently I am teetotal.

Mammanat222 · 24/10/2014 10:19
  • Also I love Leffe - how could I forget Leffe (Brun or Blond I am not fussed)
Latara · 24/10/2014 10:39

I'm teetotal now (on meds) but I can reminisce about my favourite drinks...

Mojito cocktails (the rum & lime, the mint, the sugar at the bottom.. mm)

Tequila shots with salt & lemon, Margarita cocktails

Sambuca

Grenache Rose wine (lower alcohol, quite sweet)

Baileys on ice as a treat
