I like that new berries and cream diet soda from dr.pepper, although I try to stick with water most of the time.

I like some flavored martini's. Found a good watermelon mix and a peppermint one too that I'm gonna try. Never really drink that much because I don't like the taste so I usually go for the "girly" type drinks.

coke......vailla coke when it was available...

alcoholic: I'm with you here tiger88....those flavored martinis are awesome.....my favorite: Sour Apple Martini, YUM, YUM..or a Buttery Nipple....(let the jokes begin)...

A good recipe for a Sour apple tini is 2oz of Grey Goose and 1oz of Dekuyper Sour Apple pucker shake over ice stain and enjoy!!!!! BUttery Nipple is one of my most favorite shots I love Buttershots and Bailey's!!!!!!!

Well, I tried the peppermint martini and it wasn't very good. I should have known on that one. The watermelon mix is excellent though. Gonna have to pick up a sour apple mix, I've had those at a restaraunt before and they are really good too.

Also gonna have to get the recipe for a melon martini, made with midori or another melon liquor. Those things are freaking awesome.

We must have similar taste buds pcola. I loved the vanilla coke too. I rarely ever drink a sugared soda but I would treat myself to that occasionally.

If you use 2 parts Vodka and 1 part mix (2oz-1oz) You can make any flavored Martini melon martini can be made with MIdori or if your on a budget Bols melon tastes good, Try Vanilla vodka and Godiva Choc liquor for a great choc martini!

Favorite soft:

Sweet Tea, rarely though, the sugar knocks me out.

Un-Sweet Tea @ restaurants

Sugar Free Lemonade/Kool-Aid is my drink of choice.

Ice Cold filtered water.

Diet Mountain Dew or Diet Sunkist or Diet Code Red for a once a day soda.

A&W Diet Rootbeer, had one today, cant find them much though.

Liquor:

Carbarnet Sauvignon white zinfandel

Lite beer, Coors Light, Bud Lite, for everday beer. (I drink about 2-4 a week I guess, if that many.)

A melon ball, Blue Bols in a screw driver-very sneaky drink, kind of tastes like cantaloupe.

Schnapps-peach, peppermint, whatever.

Once in a blue moon Pina Colada. Too much sugar for me 99% of the time.

Non-A: Water

A: Mack & Jacks' African Amber Ale (only sold up here in metro-Seattle area.) If that makes me a snob, so be it. This is the best beer I've ever tasted and I've been to Munich (Beer Mecca -- I know it's somewhat sacreligious but I don't care) and Belgium, Ireland, and a lot of other places. The only US domestic beer that comes anywhere close to it, taste-wise, is Sam Adams.

I'm gonna have to try a sam adams. I've developed a slight beer palate over the years and love their commercials about the lengths they go to for quality.

Have no clue where to find mack and jacks.

The greater Seattle-metro area is the only place to find it. They don't sell it anywhere else.

then i think you ought to start collecting addresses and mail us all out a sample... :big:

Is that some of that imported stuff?

My wife's uncle is retired from the State Department and has been to more countries then I can even think of. He mostly drinks nothing but imported stuff. One if his favorites is some type of Swedish lager. I am not a big beer drinker, but I can sip on one. However, when I tried that Swedish drink, I thought I was going to :puke: . You have to have a belly made up concertina wire to drink that stuff.

Nah...Purple Haze is made by Abita, which is based in Louisiana I believe.

Sweetwater is a micro-brewery outside of Atlanta. They have 420 (the original) and Blue (blueberry), Hummer, and a bunch of other varieties. Good stuff.

Here's mine

Non-alcoholic

My Default -- Coke

Summertime -- Freshly-squeezed lemonade

On A TV Shoot -- Creme Soda

Business lunches -- Ginger Ale

Winter, or when I feel a cold coming on -- V8

Every damned day -- Coffee, premium beans. But I don't have a coffee fetish

Alcoholic--It's really situational, guys

My one-a-night beer at home on weekdays: Rolling Rock, Honey Brown, Pete's Wicked Ale, Yuengling.

My weekend beers: Fosters, Modelo

My beers when I'm treating myself -- Pilsner Urqell, just about any microbrew, Steinlager

Wine for dinner at home -- Petite Syrah, Grenache, Pinot Grigio, and Poilly Fuisse

Poker with the boys -- Bud

Dinner out with friends -- Dirty martini, with Grey Goose please and an extra olive

Sunsets at the beach house with friends and family, playing cards and saying funny things -- Gin & Tonic (Bombay, please. Tanqueray will do. But everything else is just piss)

Christmas mornings and, for some weird reason, airplane flights -- Bloody Mary. But it better be spicy, dammit

Church fundraisers -- Wine, lots of it, followed by tequila. Hey, I'm Episcopalian. Wherever there's four, there's a fifth.

Funderals -- Scotch. Again, don't ask me why. I have a bottle of Chivas that I've only touched three times in five years, all after funerals of people I really cared about.

On my NO list: Miller light, white Zindandel, flavored coffees, mixed drinks that require umbrellas, flames, or food coloring. Any mixed drink that requires sodas. Anything that requires more than three ingredients (My exception: Bloody Mary's)

By the way, when I went to New Zealand, about a dozen guys told me this joke: "Why is American beer like making love in a canoe? It's f******* too close to water."

Neither here nor there, but reading that list made me think of this exchange.

otter = Sally

Waitress: Hi, what can I get ya?

Harry: I'll have a number three.

Sally: I'd like the chef salad, please, with the oil and vinegar on the side, and the apple pie a la mode.

Waitress (writes down): Chef and apple a la mode.

Sally: But I'd like the pie heated, and I don't want the ice cream on top, I want it on the side. And I'd like strawberry instead of vanilla if you have it. If not, then no ice cream - just whipped cream, but only if it's real. If it's out of the can, then nothing.

Waitress: ... Not even the pie?

Sally: No, just the pie, but then not heated.

Waitress: Uh huh.

(Harry is staring at Sally)

Sally: What?

Harry: Nothing, nothing.

Well, this is a first. Never been compared to Meg Ryan before. I'm pretty certain you'll be getting an angry letter from her publicist soon.
