I usually order a bloody mary. Especially if the glass is frosted. That's my personal favourite. Rub a slice of lime along the rim of the glass and then dip it in a plate containing a little amount of salt so the rim gets coated with a thin film of salt-lemon powder. How about you do you have any favorite drinks that you can share?

I honestly can't remember the last time I went to a bar but when I do go my drink of choice is Captain Morgan and Coke. so nothing real exciting there.

I used to only order screwdrivers at a bar, which we very seldom went to, because at least I knew I could stomach those. Then one day I got brave. I wanted to try something new. So I ordered a tequila sunrise. OMG that was good. They are far to expensive to make at home and we seldom go to a place where I can get one but when we do that is what I order.

I usually only drink when I go to the casinos now. It depends on the time of day for what I'll drink lol. Usually start out the mornings with a few coffee and Baileys. Then it just depends, if I'm hungry I go for a bloody Mary-love the olives and the tomato juice, kinda fills you up lol. Rum and cokes or margaritas on the rocks are usually the others I drink. Finish off the evening with a few more coffee and Baileys :) Good stuff!!

That's a lot of different drinks. Do you also mix them yourself?

Oh yes, I have my own favorite drink and its none other than carrot juice, LOL! I haven't tried Bloody Mary. I heard that it can burn your tongue or something. I normally have those light drinks only. Pina Colada, Margaritas or a bottle of light Budweiser. I once tried a small glass of Johnny Walker and I was drunk within the minute. The following day, I had the mother of all headache.

Pina Colada and Margaritas are fine drinks. Carrot juice are healthful drink, you can stick to it if you get headache with hard drinks.

For me, I love Strawberry Daiquiri or Gin Cooler because they are very refreshing and mostly I order those two during my drinking session in a bar.

I also like Gin. We have a local Gin made by San Miguel Corporation and it's cheap. It is often called the poorman drink. When you buy one you called it by the shape of it's bottle which come into two popular size, the round bottle called "bilog" and the square bottle called "kuatro kantos".

Evetytime I go out with my friends for a night out, I always order Margarita, Sometimes we order a pitcher of Zombie. Love the taste of it. Bloody Mary tastes good too. And for my last drink, I usually order Vodka Ice.

The Bloody Mary is my personal favorite, especially if you toss in a few cooked shrimp and garnish it with some big green olives and a few chunks of cheese on a skewer... be sure to put a fresh stalk of celery in the glass! :) That's my "Casino Breakfast Buffet" drink of choice, and then I attack the buffet...
I have won awards for mixed drinks, here is one that my Ladies love:
Peaceful's "Grand Royale Kiss" :
5 Ounces Vodka... super chill by placing the bottle in the freezer for an hour or two... 1 ounce of Grand Marnier... at room temperature to bring out flavor... 1/2 ounce of chocolate liquere...chilled two or three drops of Cherry liquere, ditto... some finely ground orange zest mixed with sugar... to rim an 8 ounce chilled martini glass...
Method: Pour Grand Marnier in chilled martini glass (be sure to rim the glass with the zest/sugar mixture, beforehand) and swirl it around so that it coat the glass thoroughly... drop in the cherry liquere, and let it settle... slowly pour in your super-chilled vodka and then add the chocolate liquere...
Serve this immediately and be sure that you have fire-proofed your bedroom furniture, Dude! :) LOL!
TIP: Ladies love a guy who can cook and mix drinks, it like a pheromone to females... so get out there and learn all that you can, this knowlege has been with me for 54 years, and has never failed me, and it never will! :)

I'll take note of it. I have not tried mixing my drinks yet. Maybe it's about time to try.

I used to like marsala and coke but the last few times I asked for it they didn't have marsala so my second choice id just baileys, or I just stick to coke if I am driving as it doesn't take much to send me a bit funny.. ;)

My favourite drink is easy a bourbon, Jim Beam preferably but I don't mind which bouron. I like to have my bourbon with coke.
I also like creamy drinks like Baileys, mmmmmmmm.

My favorite drink is white russian. That's about all I drink now. I used to drink pina colada and long island iced tea, but for some reason I just don't like them anymore.
