A shot of peach schnapps in a clear shotglass so you can see it. A teaspoon of Baileys poured slowly into it; the Bailey's will curdle and look like brains. Then you add a few drops of grenedine to make it look like blood. If you add blue curacao, it's called 'alien brain hemmorrage'. |
good god - that sounds like something that will make your brain hemorrhage. i shudder to think what that combination must taste like.
i do like the idea of starting fridays by drinking. although honestly, that is what it would take to get me to work before 7 am. _________________ aka: neverscared! |

I'm drinking that special beer that makes me not like standing up, but does make me like commenting on people's recent fb profile picture updates.

| This morning's featured drink at booze o'clock was a Dark And Stormy - rum and ginger beer. I discovered that while it is tasty, I still have a bad reaction to rum. |

pretty much just drinking whatever I can find in the hopes that I might fall asleep tonight. a bottle of champagne, a six pack of lager, and a couple of drinks made from whatever was left in that peach schnapps bottle I somehow ended up with after my grandmother died. I'm out of booze and still awake (but I'm drunk enough that it doesn't bother me anymore). _________________ Formerly Green_Finn

Red, yeah? Try Columbia Crest H3 cab, or Goose Ridge's red blend. Or Apothic Red (my go to red). All $15 or less (in WA). And tell me what you think! _________________ "Worse comes to worst, my people come first, but my tribe lives on every country on earth.

Trader Vic's Mai Tai mix, attempting to create something like a mai tai. Um... it's okay. I've had a mai tai at Trader Vic's (fantastic). This is... not even close (nicely alcoholic, though). _________________ “Yields falsehood when preceded by its quotation”

Couldn't find any of the wines suggested by Dogen. I enjoy Apothic Red
Went with Cline's Zinfandel. It's pretty great!  |

I tend toward WA wines (you know, buy local and all that), but I never know which have distribution outside the state. I should branch out before I start making recommendations to non-WAians. _________________ "Worse comes to worst, my people come first, but my tribe lives on every country on earth.

i'm not drinking this _now_, but i was last night (and several other nights).
seems there is this website that recreates food from game of thrones and also drink, including various interesting mulled wine sorts of things. which i am really getting into. especially salladhor saan's version (which i have actually been making with white zinfandel, so it's a lovely pink). _________________ aka: neverscared! |

Big Eddy Imperial IPA. It is very good and not SUPER HOPPY in that it is hoppy but also balanced by a deep flavor. It is tasty and a bit refined. It is certainly a sipping beer.
And you just won't believe it.
Won't believe it!
Big Eddy, which is delicious, is made by Leinenkugel. _________________ Before God created Las he pondered on all the aspects a woman might have, he considered which ones would look good super-inflated and which ones to leave alone.
