your favorite spirit!

As an American college student I feel it is my duty to make posts about what are out favorite things to drink... I will start off the list... I also take good drunken stories to!

My favorite thing of all time is!
1. Bud Light - if I am drinking beer anyways (bud is expensive to a college student)
2. Gin and Tonic - is my favorite mixed drink to all the English out there I love BeefEater if it werent so damned expensive.
3. Southern Comfort and Coke a.k.a comfort cola- real good
4. Cpt. Morgan and coke - a classic but also rather expensive
5. Pabst light- if i am dirt broke its cheap **** but does the trick
6. Vodka - the alcohol equivalent to nail polish remover, but once again if you are broke it does the trick.

I got plenty more where that came from but I decided to make the list short... Now its story time. At a Mardi Gras party I made out with a chick whom I later found on a porn site for my college... I wasn't quite sure if I should be proud of that or not? And the top reason it sucks having a high tolerence to liquor is that you end up babysitting everyone else!
anywas respond! respond!
and to all of you Europeans and other people who can legally drink before the age 21 you suck! and also I bets its not as fun getting smashed when its legal!

What do you mean, Europieans can drink before 21? I can drink leagaly at 18. One of the few reasons Quebec kicksass.

And our Canadian beer is so much better then American beer. You all know the joke about Amerian beer is like having sex on a boat.

Anyway,

I like to drink Molson's Canadian, Smooth Dry, any Tornade, Smirnoff Ice. And as for hard drinks, I like Sambuka and coke and rum and coke.

As for stories...I forgot them all...

Yeah well English beer is the best, seeing as we invented it and all :p

Well you know "other countries" means Canada too. Even though you think you are part of the U.S. j/k. Bud light is good... never fills you up and never lets you down!

Imports cost way to much to drink for me... But Canadian beer isn't import I guess because of NAFTA.

I do like having sex on boats though (I obviously haven't heard the joke.

And the English did not invent beer its been around since aincient egypt bud.

where do you get STROH!!!! i want some!

Post Sat May 24, 2003 12:30 am

Favorite spirits? I'm a lightweight, gimme a few shots of Aftershock. I actually just prefer to watch other ppl get drunk (esp my friends and/or brother). Also, 10 quid for all you can drink can be pretty fun too (even more so if there's a soccer match going on). Cheers.

OK, lets start:
I like hard-core stuff... home-made Brandy like Plum or Appricot Brandy (40-52%), cocktails also come in handy (B-52, Tequilla Sunrise)...
I even made my own trademark cocktail: the Death's Hand.
You take a wide 0.5 l glass, and put the edge in crystal sugar, so it sticks.
Then you put a little ice in (2-3 cubes), pour 0.25 l of red Martini (dark vermouth), add 0.1 l of Rum (real, not the artificial flavour one), and finally add 0.1 l of Vodka (Gorbatchov or Troika, needs to be made from potato).
You stir it with two cross strokes, and enjoy. Best served cold.
Once I had three glasses of it in 15 mins... Thats how it got its name.
Also various flavoured whiskys like Ammaretto Whisky (almond) are nice...
Wine could be a proper substitute when nothing else is around...
Beer comes in a weak last. (I'm gonna burn for this one...)
Cheers!

EDIT: oh, BTW, Stroh is a Rum Extract, and is poisonous if 0.1 l is consumed...
It is produced in the Czech Republic, and is not intended for out-of-the-bottle use.

I always wanted to try a Manhattan, but the barkeep says "All we have is Liberty Ale, friend". Maybe the terpentine is catching up to me...

I will have to try that drink one of these days, but remember I am a poor poor college studend and cheap is good occasionally I will get the good stuff...

I am assuming a quid is british currency, i always thought they did it in pounds or a is a quid part of a pound and if so a quid for that many beers is good! Bloody hell!

And i thought you called soccer futbol in in europe so confusing! Anyways soccer sucks here in the states and i would do anything to watch a match, my favorite team is A.C. Milan it would be awseome to watch them play.

And a reply to that stroh stuff, if its not intended for out of bottle uses then what good is it. The only reason I could see purchassing it is to make a molotof cocktail if i want to blow someone to kingdom come.

a Quid is just a nick name for the pound, like the buck is for the dollar

You could always talk to those scruffy old men who smell of wee and sleep behind the bus shelter!! I'm sure they could fix you up with something in no time
I prefer a beer or an ale, that Spitfire stuff is quite nice

BTW, any Brits here tried Votka (a cheap-ass vodka)? Well, don't, I tried some at a party, not only does it taste like crap and you'll be trying to get the taste outta your mouth for ages but apparently its now been banned due to traces of meths (no I'm not blind yet)

@topgunsss: Stroh is used as an aroma, to add flavour, or you could just add 0.5 l of water in it and drink it. Stroh has so much alcohole in it because it helps bring out the aroma, not because it's intended for use with suicidal people.
There are also the "45" and "60" versions of Stroh.

***ADVERTISEMENT***
The "Death's Hand" is outstanding (literally), so try it -- you wont regret it!
