First and foremost I'm a scotch kinda guy (sometimes with a dash of water and sometimes neat) with the occasional gin & tonic thrown in during the hot summer months but for the past few days I've developed a craving for a drink that I haven't enjoyed in years.......a bloody mary.

Your favorite adult mixed drink ?
 

A nice Manhattan or two!

A Bloody Mary is nice now and then. If you are having a few shrimp for New Year's Eve try a Shrimp Wreck Mary, a bloody Mary heavy on the horseradish, a little Worcestershire sauce and a couple of big fat shrimp on the rim of the glass for a garnish!
 
Like you Ike, I like Scotch neat or with a small drop of water. I also like Gin & tonic or a Kir (white wine & cassis). I don't really care for any other spirits.
 

Always enjoy Tanqueray & Tonic, Grey Goose & Soda with lime, and a spicy Bloody Mary. Really can't pick a favorite. Think each depends on my mood.
 
I mostly just drink wine but there are several mixed drinks that I occasionally enjoy. In the summer, Gin & Tonic or a Mojito. For brunch a Ramos Gin Fizz. Around the holidays a Martini or Tom & Jerry. I haven't had a Brandy Alexander in years, but used to love those. Remember Side Cars? I haven't heard of that drink in years. Campari and Soda (2 parts Campari to 1 part seltzer over crushed ice) is one I often enjoy.
 
A Blue Hawaiian or Pina Colada cocktail, both made with rum. Also like a Raspberry Margarita made with tequila. And Disaronno just over ice.
 
When I drink which is seldom and even more seldom the hard stuff,it has to be Old Grandad Bourbon, usually neat, and if mixed it will be with Coke.

I am not a craft beer guy,my beer of choice is Labatts Blue Lager.

Change the Tanqueray to Beefeater and I'm with you on all three!

I once had a Bombay Sapphire gin & tonic with crushed fresh basil in a restaurant. It was pretty good.

(actually, I'm not that savvy; if you gave me Tanquery and told me it was Beefeater I doubt I could tell the difference when mixed, lol!)

Well I decide to satisfy the craving so I picked up what I needed today and I'm having my first one as I peck this.....absolutely delicious !

:cheers1: everyone and Happy New Year !!
 
Haven't had a mixed drink in years or any hard alcohol, but back in the day I used to like to make a blender full of Pina Coladas if we had company, with pineapple juice, Coco Lopez and Meyer's Dark Rum, guess that was my favorite most tasty mixed drink.

 
Before I retired from drinking my favorite was either margarita's or Black Russians. However, I mainly drank vodka on the rocks which is why I am now retired from drinking :untroubled:
 
My favorite right now is 1/3 Wild Turkey 101, 1/3 Red Bull, and 1/3 7up. Sounds gross, but it is actually not bad. Plus it will mess you up pretty good.

Also if you like the Capt and Coke, try Sailor Jerry and Cherry Pepsi. It is pretty much the same thing, but so much better.
 
My "go to" drink used to be a vodka and tonic with lime, but I stopped drinking hard liquor several years ago after coming to realization that it was slowly killing me, hurting my relationship and my ability to perform at a high level at work. Today, I tend towards wine (red blends primarily) or occasionally a glass of Chardonnay.
