Smile Favorite drinks

As I sit here enjoying a whiskey sour, I figured Id ask what are yalls favorite drinks, mixed or not. I like a whiskey sour or a cherry coke and whiskey on the strong side(BV or JD) as a good drink to sip and relax by the fire. Ive started to move away from the beer(although I never refuse a brew) and started into mixed drinks, the sours are my favorite, but I do like jager bombs on occasion. So what does everyone else enjoy?? Feel free to share your own mixes or recipes!

In younger, wilder days, it used to be Vodka and OJ. You can get away with drinking that in the wildest places right under other peoples noses. Now that I dont drink any alcohol, I look back and think how stupid I was......But on summer days, when I am flipping burgers and steaks, chicken on the grill, I could kill for a ice cold Corona and lime!

Beer for the most part.

I do enjoy screwdrivers, and rum+cokes. And CC+7up. And Crown+coke. Pretty rare I drink cocktails though.

I enjoy a beer once in awhile.

Also an occasional shot of either Jack Daniels, Jameson, or Wild Turkey.

Favorite drinks:

A GOOD cup of coffee, with one packet/spoonful of sugar. (Starbucks is sewer water!)
Unsweetened iced tea w/lemon

Deer Park water

I don't drink a lot of alcohol nowadays, but, when I indulge, these are my choices:
Jameson's Irish Whiskey w/Canada Dry Ginger Ale w/a slice of lime
Canadian Club w/Canada Dry Ginger Ale w/a slice of lime
Patron Tequila shots
Jameson's shots
Canadian Club shots
Rolling Rock Beer

My all time favorite is plain old water...fresh from the tap!!! My hometown has some of the best water around.

I have been known to...on occasion...add some VO to it!!! I have also...fairly recently...re-acquired a tatse for beer.

Coffee in the morning, water with dinner.
Soda? Coke Zero or Sprite Zero or Fresca.

I love a good cold beer when the weather is warm but my favorite mixed drink is Jack Daniels and either Sprite or 7-UP. I used to mix it with Coke until I was told to try it with Sprite and I haven't looked back!

I also sip JD straight from the bottle and chase it with Sprite or 7-UP!

Ice cold water, pineapple&orange juise, ice cold milk, diet Pepsi with a splash of full strength Pepsi, and on a rare occasion, Meyer's Dark rum and Pepsi. when I buy beer, it will usually go bad before it gets finished.

Spirits? Sippin' rum on the rocks with a squirt of lime and a heavy splash of water. When I'm visiting the parents....Me and Dad usually break out the gin/vermouth/jalapeno-stuffed olives/cocktail onions and make a martini or 2.

Mostly I keep vino in the homestead and wind down the days with a heavy red or a rhine (or 2).

I'm drinking coffee all morning. A good amount too. No apologies here.

Usually kill a couple of bottles of water in the morn, and one or two in the afternoon and with dinner to dilute the coffee and get the liver ready for the wine at night.....

But hey.....I DO stay away from sodas (can't stand 'em).
