who can enjoy a cocktail or three with me in the afternoon/evening. It's 2 PM here. I just made my great summer drink number one. Tall glass 120z, fill completely with preferably crushed ice, add 2 oz Gin, add 1 oz Simple Syrup (50%water/sugar mixed), fill with Tonic water add a sprig of mint if you have it.... Sit back, consider how many things are good in the world and sip and trip....You religious folks need to remember your Jesus drank too....
 

PS I absolutely NEVER drive if I've had a drink. I have testified in Court against DUI's in support of the arresting officer.
 
I would love to join you but I seem to have developed an alcohol intolerance in my old age. One swallow and I will have the headache from Hades in about an hour. Drink an entire beer (which I LOVE) and I get a coma.
 
I'll have a G & T with you Jim. Although I'm going to bed very shortly since it's 10.30. I've had a beer with dinner, and a G & T a while ago - two slices of lime. Elderflower tonic, gin, lots of ice.

Thanks, hun! :)

I don't drink and drive either. It has to be long enough time between having any beer and driving especially with the new laws here where half pint of beer can put you over the limit.
 
I'm reminded of the drunk driver who was stopped by the police and asked why he was driving? His answer was he was just too damn drunk to walk.

Yes, responsible drinking can be fun but drunk driving is no joke. I see it, I report it.

That's good. It's very common in Scotland for taxis to park outside pubs and people too drunk will just grab a cab.

I've been a bit tipsy on my bicycle but only ride on roads with little or no traffic and only a mile or two.

Annie, you naughty little girl.
 
I'll join you, Jim, but give me a few days for this damn cold to clear up. Meanwhile here's a nice drink I call a Cherry Pie. Place one part vodka and two parts tart cherry juice in the glass of your choice. Stir it up and taste it. If it's too tart, add a little bit of confectioner's sugar to your liking. Then add ice. Yum! I've tried making it with black cherry juice and that's pretty good but the tart cherry juice makes it taste more like Cherry Pie.
 
I quit drinking almost 10 years ago, just tryin' to get a little more mileage outta my liver.

I have no effective solutions for a burning nerve~muscle pain, so occasionally I fantasize about constructing a White Russian:

Ingredients:

measuring is optional, but basically-

2 oz vodka
4 or 5 oz Kahlúa
heavy whipping cream- however much ya'all want
crushed ice

.....maybe some day. <sigh>
