Whats everyones favorite drinks? Do you prefer one brand over the other? Mixed, shots, how ever you like em come chime in here!

Personally im a fan of Vodka, tequila and absinthe (prepared the proper way) I usually will drink out of the freezer and just sip it. tequila is my favorite if im out with friends doing shots or something and absinthe to just kind of relax and enjoy my night. as for brands I prefer double cross or russian standard vodka, hurra durra tequila, and pernod absinthe if I can get it imported over otherwise I suffer through lucid.

A nice 25 year old scotch. Speyside is good and so is a Glenmorangie. Why, are you buying?

when you mention Absinthe prepared "the proper way..." I'll assume you mean traditional/authentic incorporating wormwood?

by proper way I mean, having ice cold water slowly drip into a glass with a small amount of absinthe in it, takes a few minutes for the glass to be ready but its soo much better tasting and enjoyable then taking a shot blargh, or any other way iver tried. if done well it helps to really bring out the earthy tones of the drink

PERNOD ABSINTHE - Shoppers Vineyard

My personal favorite would be some Woodchuck Cider and/or some Jameson whiskey

You covered my wife and I in this sentence.

Jameson for me.

As far as wines go, if you're looking for something as a starter Berenger has some good stuff for fairly cheap. I prefer their white zinfandel. As has been mentioned, stay away from anything too cheap. Boxed wines will give you an instant headache.

Not a big fan of liquor really, gimme a nice imported beer and I'm straight. Dos Equis, Corona or Heineken and If the mood is just right, a nice German Hefeweizen would be excellent.

@330D - props to your avatar, I loved Howl's Moving Castle.

I don't know; have you tried it good and warm on a Winter's night?

The mint version, especially.

I drink Crown Black, Lucid Absinth, Agave Tequila. but since i really dont drink anymore.........

I like martinis and mixed drink when I'm out with my girls or relaxing. A bottle of red or white for dinner.

My favourite Vodka brand:

I find this is the best to make martinis since they don't have much of an 'after taste' like some other vodka does. It's smooth and delicious <3 And it's pretty cheap for being so good. Same price as Absolute, Skyy, Smirnoff. Not sure if it sells in the US, but in Canada, we only get the basic. I was in heaven when I was in London and can sample their flavour ones!

no one gonna put in a good word for cider?

Wow... I think we agree on something. Sure, I'll put in a good word for cider. For the novice(s) among us, apple juice is NOT cider and truly great cider is hard to find in my area.

also for those wondering absinthe doesnt make you hallucinate, it does though give you a really happy almost euphoric drunk type of feeling, where everything just seems at peace with the world.

What some don't know is that Absinthe back in the day, if you bought shoddy Fae, would make you see some crazy stuff. Not because of what they put in it. But due to contaminated stills. Since most were made of copper, if not properly maintained and cleaned the poison Copper Sulfate would develop and make its way into the drink. That is what would make people see things and go crazy.

Fun Absinthe facts!

I have a little advice for those carboys of cider. Make hard cider.
