My favorite drink back then

[Zardoz56]

When I was much younger I loved a Long Island Iced Tea. At first I did not know that it was nothing but alcohol. And one time I drank too much of it and became "Black out drunk". My co-worker had to carry me home and laid me in my bed. My wife thought that I was dead!

I went through phases.

I still enjoy a Manhattan every now and then.

Captain Morgan Spiced Rum & Coke was pretty much my preferred splurge.
Just smelling it would probably do the job now though.

My favorite drink is Irish Coffee made with Jameson.

A Brandy Alexander was a classic creamy cocktail that blended brandy (or cognac) with crème de cacao (a chocolate liqueur), cream, and a garnish of freshly grated nutmeg.

Makes me think I should have been drinking it with elbow-length gloves on and my hair up in a chignon. Who can resist any cocktail that has a lovely bit of cream in it? I can count on one hand how many I had "back then"...very rich. It made a lovely holiday drink.

Now I want one this Christmas
It's been decades. Thank you Zardoz for the pleasant memory.
