What alcohol do you enjoy drinking?

    I was introduced to gin and tonic on the weekend and love it!

    I enjoy having a few nice beers but hate sticking to beer the whole night as it just bloats your stomach.

    Compari and soda (if that's how you spell it) is another favourite, as well as absinthe if the bar has it ;)

    What do you guys enjoy drinking on big nights out?

    Yeah,

    Never had a G&T up until 3 months ago. Now, we have a Gin bottle in our collection. I like Tia Maria, Glayva, any Cab Sauv or Merlot, Verdelho or a good Chardonnay, Champers, a nice Port and of course any good Boutique beer.

    Col :)

    Oh I know I am just absolutely in love with it!

    It goes down smooth; has very little taste. What more can you ask for? If it is a little to strong that way; add some pepsi/coke into the mix then you can hardly taste it!!

    Yeah good vodka is like that. That's the thing though, because you hardly taste a good vodka, then what's to appreciate about it? :) There's nothing worse then a cheap vodka!

    Yeah I agree very much. The taste is what it is all about. You definately know when you have gotten ahold of a bad vodka because you are either spitting it back out or this look of something incredibly sour just went down ones throat.

    If it's beer then I like Belgian White Beer like Hoegaarden, spirits then a nice single malt Scotch over a single ice cube.

    I like G&Ts too, and also vodka and tonic.
    During summer, I like anything I can put a bit of lemon in.

    I've been drinking straight tonic on really hot days. Seems to hit a spot that water just can't get to.

    On 60 minutes they did a vodka blind taste test and everybody said beforehand their favorite was Grey Goose. As is often the case, in a clear cup they all said it was terrible. The power of marketing.
