    last night, I tried a new thing: Angostura Black: Flavoured Rum Beverage with Cola

    the key words here are "flavoured" and "beverage"

    should have been my first clues, really.

    Tasted of balls, and not in the good way.

    When in a group we don't really pace each bottle, but more when we get a new one.

    So you can scull your bottle if you want to, but usually it's good form to wait till everyone has finished their current, then we all grab another.

    "Hot Damn" is 100 proof cinnamon schnapps.

    It is both the most awesome and terrible stuff ever.

    My worst would be Cowboy Milkshake I got as a birthday present.

    It could taste nice, but it usually didn't

    When you say from the bottle, are you talking about liquor or beer?

    I thought the same of this whiskey called "Fireball Whiskey". Cause it taste's like the fireball candy, but its whiskey. An unusual mix.

    Beer

    My immediate drinking buddies are beer people, as when the liquor comes out it's difficult to pace. With the exception of Southern Comfort and coke, which we can standardize a bit better.

    It's rare we deviate from beer though

    My old roommates were all about weird alcohol but if it turned out bad they would just offload it at parties.

    Dumbest shit they got was "Aftershock," an 80 proof cinnamon flavored beverage that has crystals at the bottom of the glass bottle. The apparent appeal was that once you down the actual liquid, you could then break open the bottle and eat the crystals and they would make you so fucked up you guys.

    However the logistics of trying to find cinnamon crystals among shattered glass doesn't cross any of their minds.

    Alright, when mixing a lime or something with a bottle just pop it down in there, put your thumb over the opening and turn the bottle upside down. When the lime has risen to the top (bottom technically) turn it over and slowly relieve the pressure with your thumb.

    I have never heard of anyone mixing fruits an beer differently.

    My favorite drink is tequila. That is why Thanatos is my favorite forumer. He brought a really nice bottle to Arses party in March. It was super good. Strong liquor has great flavour. Or I just might be huge fucking lush.

    I found out that I like Tequila once I got away from Jose Cuervo and into some pricer bottles. I can enjoy shooting it but sipping on it, not so much.

    How are you supposed to drink Tequila anyway?

    Maybe a champagne glass?

    Spell check is rad.

    I think it was a white wine glass. You really shouldnt listen to me when it comes to booze. I used to drink Hot 100 remember, I am not exactly qualified to give out high class advice when it comes to liquor .

    Buuuut, my rule of thumb is, if it feels good do it, even if you shouldnt, something, something, something else.

    I just know that I would drink whiskey straight, then someone told me that I should put an ice cube in it. It made one helluva difference in taste and aroma.

    I thought you were just being silly when you said a wine glass, but hey wine glasses are fun to drink from regardless whats in them.

    Here is a fantastic fruity drink for you peeps to try.

    Pink Eye
    Start with one measure each of vodka and cointreau in a highball glass
    build over ice with equal parts orange and grapefruit juice
    top with a drizzle of melon liqueur.

    Warning. Do not consume when thirsty. It is so refreshing and easy to drink at 2 shots per glass, you will be drunk before you know it.

    Back during fall semester I decided I wanted some scotch. One of my 21-yr-old friends was making a trip to the ABC store so I gave him some money and told him to get some scotch but nothing to pricey.

    He brings back a $14 handle of Scoresby, which looks and tastes just like horse piss. Sure, it got me drunk but I mixed that shit with whatever liquid was at hand at the time. I know technically you're not supposed to mix scotch but this stuff was aged 36 months, the bare minimum, so it was barely scotch anyway

    Man you can mix whatever you want with whatever else.

    I don't mind scotch on the rocks, but with coke or ginger ale, it is delicious.

    Let people drink what they like the way they like it and we'll all get along and drunk together.

    "build" is a way to construct a cocktail. It means pour in the first ingredient, then the ice, then the building ingredients together all in the serving glass. It is the act of pouring in these ingredients that mixes the drink. Don't shake or swizzle or muddle or stir.
