It's tequila for me. Mexican tequila from Mexico that was Not Good and had a worm that did me in. Now, I can't even hang.
Also?? Despite drinking copious amounts of them with juliana in SF, I *just* learned that red-headed sluts have Jaager in them! I had no idea! And I still like them!
I don't want to know the real story, so save your links for someone who's open to the "truth."
According to Wikipedia, curling has its origins in Scotland in the 1500s, and seems to have been a winter version of golf. It doesn't explicitly say alcohol was involved, but it doesn't say it wasn't...
Dark & Stormys!!
Mmmm. A current favorite of mine!
The fancy-people gin cocktails they make now have so much other stuff in them, the gin is fine with me, although I'd still always take a v&t over g&t.
Does Southern Comfort have a reason to exist aside from regrettable high school memories and, possibly, the invention of curling?
If it was Scotland, alcohol was involved.
My brother was bitten by an aardvark.
(technically, and anteater, but aardvark is close enough and more fun to type.)
I was off rum for a while after a run in with bad fish followed by rum and cokes, but over that now.
I agree. Uh, with the stuff about SoCo.
I have very few opinions on aardvarks.
I'm told the first recorded game involved angry monks. Seriously.
That sounds alcohol-based to me.
Aren't monks responsible for some liquors? Chartreuse, I think, and probably others. Go team drunk monk!
Isn't the alcohol kind of a given in Scotland, or is that just my extended family?
What cocktails are tasty with gin in them? I should branch out from the gimlet some day.
Might I suggest the Scarlet Fever?
Fever-Tree Gin and Tonic
--1 jigger (50 ml) gin.
--A balloon glass.
--Fresh ice, at least four big cubes. Clear cubes from spring water if possible.
--Fever-Tree tonic water from the fridge.
--Lime, a curl of the rind of a lime. It's the oils you want not the flesh (or a slice if you must).
Scarlet Fever
Mix as for gin and tonic, but add a splash of Campari. Try a wedge of lemon this time.
