Favourite Drinks?
In a cheeky spin off sars_notd_virus (btw, what does your username mean???) thread on 'What is your most favourite movie?', lets go for a topic close to my heart, 'ALCOHOL'! What is your most favourite drink?
Well for me, I drink a lot of wine, and it's hard to decide between a good Chablis or a my other favourite 'Bombay Gin' with tonic!
This is something I imagine most Europeans have never heard of, but would highly recommend http://www.laithwaites.co.uk/LW/jsp/...r_p=prod512741

subseastu, how did I know that you'd have an excellent list. Who says that us seafarers are alcoholics?
Stevie C, would you believe that you can buy Newcy Brown in bars across the United States! Very popular in New York!

That me ol mate rick was the short list. Didn't want to embarrass myself!!!
The full list is:
Anything with an alcohol content.
THat should about cover it.
But you're right, seafarers are not known for their hate of the good stuff! Do seem to be able to put it away a tad more than my shore side mates. Not bad for someone who (in theory) doesn't drink for 6 months of the year!It's been emontional

Folks, I dont want to come across as some sort of "wet blanket" ... nor am I completely teetotal. But I've never been overly keen on the taste of alcohol ... unless it happens to be either a sweet cider or lager copiously diluted with lime juice. And besides, as a borderline diabetic, I cannot be too careful about what I drink nowadays.

I made my account during the 'SARS' outbreak and it seemed like a good idea at the time..anyway,its ''notd virus'' so i'm pretty not dangerous,only when i'm upset or not getting any attention or when i'm not getting what i want ,when i think i'm missing out on something or at certain times of the month or in the morning,.. in the evening when im feeling a bit tired,.. after i've had a drink and my favorite drink is VODKA (vodka/redbull, vodka/cola),...but if i cannot get vodka i will drink cider,guinness,red wine but will not be happy about it

My favourite is Crystal... But that's so expensive and I can't get myself to buy something like that when I don't really drink alcohol...
So yeh, my favourite is crystal, but I'm not so into it or alcohol for that matter that I would go out and buy it. But if someone wants to give it to me for free

Must admit I do enjoy wine. Especially red wine.
Carina is also very fond of red wine Our favourite is Fleurie
If we're just relaxing at the weekend just eating snacks and making karaoke we both enjoy:-
Japanese Sake (any Junmai Daiginjo grade)
Jinro soju (sometime mixed with green tea)
For 'everyday' I like 'beer' especially Pilsner Urquell but nearly always good old Fosters.
In the Philippines I prefer San Mig Light
By the way for anyone who likes the taste of beer but non alcoholic I've found that
Becks Blue is really nice.
