Your favourite drink

[Bill D (wwh)]

Now that the tea-making poll has run awhile, I thought it might be interesting to see what people's favourite drinks are. Feel free to post and elaborate on your choice.

I'm with you! I make my own wine so there's a lot to drink. You need one of those big fat straws that they use for slushies...about 4cm in diameter.

The weekend is here...grab the corkscrew and let's go!

Guiderchachi

[Tiger-Eyes]

Home made Hot Chocolate has got to be my Fav drink :D
though the calories force me to enjoy it only occasionaly :(

Next on the list would be real coffee with tia maria

Note to self (Must try alcohol with hot choc any ideas anyone) :lol:

everyday is tea or coffee <_<

[The Wombles]

Not only does the caffine drip do it for me, it also scares the Salesmen that visit me at work. One complained that he got the shakes and couldn't sleep ........ and never came back again :D

Brandy is great in hot choc. So is anything like Baileys, Dooleys, all the other cream ones etc.

However gin really doesn't work.

[Alice Band]

Give.me.coffee.....

Although a nice glass of red wine would be nice too :)

[nobbynobbs]

alcohol with choc... well what can't you put with it would be quicker. think liquor choccies!!!

your own bounty bar with malibu
whiskey might be a little harsh...
but brandy would get my vote.


and when can we all try the home made pea pod wine then guiderchachi? :lol:

[Mrs Blorenge]

I had to vote tea because that's what I drink mostly
PLUS
A glass of red wine most evenings
BUT
If I'm out "socialising" it's cider
BUT
If it's "extreme socialising" it's vodka with... :huh: ... something.

Gin is VERY good in lemon tea (real lemon tea - not Liptons), and vodka's quite good in clear coffee (bedouin style)(the coffee - not the vodka, silly)

[nobbynobbs]

and it's hard to beat a nice bottle of meths among friends :blink:

[Roving Rangies]

I drink a lot of soft drinks, but when out I perfere Champagne.

[cacherelle]

Hmmmm well I love White Zinfandel, but only the Sutter Home one................OMG it's fantastic!

Oh and don't mind a good pink champagne either! ;)

[nobbynobbs]

i'd not turn down any good champagne chance would be a fine thing!

j2o's are quite nice makes a change from water in pubs when i'm driving. though you still have to go a long way to beat a nice cold ringwood best. ;)

[Bill D (wwh)]

Beer in the pub and whisky as a nightcap for me...! Champagne, and indeed any fizzy alcoholic drink, is falling over juice for me since some big ops a few years ago, I'm afraid!

[Alice Band]

*squeak* *squeak* *squeak* POP! *glug* *glug* *glug*

Mmmmmm Claret.....

I see wine is currently in the lead :D B)

[nobbynobbs]

i dread to ask what the noises were from!!! :lol:

[geotrowel]

Real ale for me! I'm also rather partial to single male Scotch and a nice glass of Merlot. Not at the same time, though!

[T.R.a.M.P.]

...single male Scotch...
Oh er missus..!:p

[Mrs Blorenge]

A thread back from the dead!

Difficult to make a choice of only one because they're a mix of soft drinks and alcoholic ones. I voted for tea because that's my most frequent drink but for other 'social occasions' I usually drink wine


or sometimes cider




never beer/lager...




Sometimes vodka with something...




Grand Marnier is nice sometimes...




What about creme de menthe frappé?



Oh! and I like sloe gin....



<MrsB, with a sense of déja vu, wanders off into an alcoholic daze...>

[matrix]

Cider for me but it has to be good quality :cheers:

It has been known to influence my bidding on certain Ebay items though :rolleyes:

[ivanidea]

Like Mrs B, I have a difficult time choosing one item.

Mostly Rioja, some malt whisky and very rarely real farm house cider (locally, I can only buy the commercial pasteurised filtered tasteless sweetened alcoholic apple juice).

Can we have polls which allow multiple selections?

Ivan

[Watford Wobble]

Hendricks gin please. Watch with Deal or No Deal life don't get better than that.

[Mrs Blorenge]

I dunno. Some people are never satisfied. You'll want individual booths and pencils on strings next...



:p :lol:

And don't forget some rubbers for when I change my mind :p :cheers: :beer:

Talking of Poles, just had some vodka from Poland. Very tasty :cool:

[Pharisee]

If I'm just socialising, then it's a pint of London Pride of something similar. Occasionally I'll enjoy a pint of Strongbow or a glass of Moondarra Shiraz. At home, on a cold winter's night, a glass of Irish whiskey... Jameson's for just slurping or if I have company then I might just bring out the Tullamore Dew.

I'm not so sure about the Strongbow or the Shiraz, but the rest is exactly, dare I say it, my cup of tea...! :cheers:
