TGIF - Favorite Drinks (Read 370 times)

Mississippi view log posted: 3/23/2007 at 7:43 PM modified: 3/23/2007 at 7:44 PM In the spirit of Friday I'm curious as to what mixed drinks and beer (oh, and wine I suppose) everyone here at RA enjoys. My favorites are: MIXED DRINKS 1. Long Island Iced Tea (top shelf please - it makes a difference) 2. Nuts & Berries (a sipping drink) 3. Cosmo BEER 1. Miller Lite (can't seem to change that, I've tried) (If I missed this in another post please don't yell at me!) "You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast.

The discussion was about the cheapest beer or the cases at the distributor with the most dust on them. "You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast.

djlovesyou view log posted: 3/23/2007 at 8:38 PM Just beer for me, not too fussy. Enough that I sway a little and not too much that I can't do my long run the next day.

Ah-k - Ice A can of frozen lemonade concentrate A liter bottle of club soda A bunch of mint leaves A few drops of Angusturra bitters A couple of limes A 750 o' decent rum Put the mint leaves in the bottom of yer mixin' container, and mush at them a bit with the handle end of a wooden spoon - releases the oils. Take the limes, wash 'em, cut 'em in half, drop 'em in with the mint, do some more mushin' with the end of the spoon (or whatever tool you're using - a nice fat dowel with a rounded end works lovely-like too). Slide in the lemonade concentrate glop and mush it up a bit. Pour in the Club Soda. Attempts to mush this ingredient have proved futile. Dribble in the bitters. Add however much rum you want. However, to achieve true Mojo status, though, you need to add at least 2/3 of the 750. Ice, stir, pour, toast Fidel, quaff, slur, fall, laugh. Served best when it's really unholy hot outside. Best ones I ever made were consumed at the remission party for a co-worker's 11 year old daughter - somethin' definitely worth celebratin'. Best not consumed during or in the 24 hours prior to a sailboat race on lumpy seas. did Riding 105 Miles to Cure Diabetes - in Death Valley! 2008 fundraising goal: $4000 (or more) - Secure Online Donation Form Now Online!
