What's your favorite beverage, or c-cktail?


Things are little bit moribund around this part of the board discussion.

Let's toast those's who go before us and help them on with our good memories.

Then, let's celebrate the life that is still amongst the rest of us.

GATORADE, preferably "orange" flavor, chilled and served in the original designer flasque.

Used to be a margy on-the-rocks with my "special" ingredients before the belly trolls got me. For certain hallowed occassions, the three-tiered margy fountain has been filled with sacrificial elixers and worshipped solemnly by all "mourners?".

I prefer rare, exotic drinks:

Cherry Coke or Cherry Pepsi, brought back from the USA, through checkpoints of thirsty army guys.
Dr. Pepper, usually from La Paz but I did find some at Arturo's in Loreto once.

Local Coke is OK but is it sweeter than USA Coke? Gets boring, though.
Fanta Fresca in the summer.

When it's really hot, Gatorade. Uvo is my favorite.

Pacifico, but not very often.

Vino blanco generally, and a pacifico every now and then.

I asked Low-Tide Lolita next door for her favorites:

Her reply,

"Sex on the Beach?
Sex up Against the Wall?
I?ve tried both of these on the same night out.
Now I find these are also drinks?
I just thought they were being nice?."

Favorite all around...Fresh limeade with or without a shot of herradura plata.

Other things for special occasions...like it's after 5 pm, or it's dinner time, or a friend comes by, or something needs toasting....
Nicaraguan Flor de Cana, Havana Club 7 yr old, a good Italian pinot grigio or California zinfandel.

A classic Martini. Chill the glass, swirl the vermouth in the cold glass and pour in gin from the freezer. Your choice of fruit. Lately I like green olive stuffed with blue cheese. (ok, so that isn't exactly classic)

Hey Pompano,


Do you make those biscottis or buy them?

Have you tried the Tuscan custom of after-dinner dipping in Vin Santo?

Full disclosure:

I love my morning coffee; fresh roasted beans ground and brewed in our Capresso C1000 - it does the crema perfectly.

Two buck chuck - everyday stuff for the benefits that red wine contributes; especially the Gamay Beaujolais ("No! I'm not going to drink Merlot!").

Champagne, champagne, champagne!

Sounds like she would enjoy this one:

Mix equal amounts-
Sloe Gin
Southern Comfort
Orange juice

Serve over ice

Name?

"Slow Comfortable Screw"

(Just passing this along- I can't stand Southern Comfort. It's like cough syrup.)




All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
