The Drink Thread

Any and all beverages. Alcoholic or not. Let's discuss them & whatever recipes you want too.
 

From a different thread: In the sticks said;
"I used to make my own bar shooters.
One was called a B52.

It's layered drink formed by pouring each ingredient over the back of a spoon into the shot glass, so they do not mix together:

-coffee liqueur
-Bailey's Irish Creme
-Grand Marnier"
 
I prefer wine coolers from Seagram's. However, since my A1C has been on the rise, I recalled drinking Crown Royal in my younger days. I now mix it with diet cola to help me sleep.
 

I like sex on the beach.

Peach margaritas if they're made right. I like more fruity and less alcohol.
 
I like sugar free soda. Except for sf Mello Yellow.

I like to make sf hot chocolate with warm almond milk. Scrumptious.
 
When I quit drinking I bought a book of non-alcoholic "bar drink" recipes. I'll have to drag it out. Some were pretty good.

I've never been a wine drinker, although I have a few I cook with. Nor have I really liked sodas. I won't drink or eat anything artificially sweetened...I'll deal with sugar rather than chemicals. But I don't do sugary stuff.

For the longest time drinks for me have been coffee, water, and maybe iced tea when dining out.

Now I want a milk shake. Strawberry.

Regarding your fondness of wine coolers: One large growth industry since lock-down has been premixed alcoholic drinks.
 
One of our dieticians at work said they've come out with new sugar free mixers to make drinks with. Might have to try that.
 
Actually I think all soda is hard on the kidneys. They suggest no more than 2 sodas a day.
I agree. I’m supposed to have none. But I goggled why and there is something in the dark soda that is really bad for kidneys.
 
I drink enough of it for both of us.

I just thought of something...are those dark colas you're referring to with caffeine?
 
No one I know drinks soda anymore. But then, I don't know that many people. Everyone I hang out with drink water, iced coffee or iced tea.

As far as alcohol, I like wine once in a while or one of those "chelada: style beers.

Many years ago I used to like a Southern Comfort Old Fashioned.

I mainly drink coffee, unsweetened ice tea or water. If I go out somewhere like a party (usually with Sonny's family) I will have a soda, root beer, orange soda, cream soda or coke. It is the only time I drink a soda. If we go somewhere for fast food, I usually get a chocolate milkshake. The drink I miss having is a chocolate egg cream, haven't had that in a lot of years.
