@derek a caesar is aka Clamato, a bloody mary with clamato juice and quite yummy, my personal sunday by the pool favorite. Nighttime cocktail would have to be a lemon drop martini but to be honest I'm good with a snifter of aged tequila.
+1!! Memories of drinking them on Lake Mead, boating on Sundays in the 80s!! And remember Bartyles and James (sp.?). Didn't Bruce Willis do commercials for them?
Bruce did the commercials for Seagram's. (With the harmonica and a band and all of that, when he thought he was "Bruno," remember? "Seagram's Golden Wine Cooler, it's wet and it's dry...") The old guys on the porch were B&J. ;-)
Cuervo Gold. Neat. No garnishes, etc. In a snifter (for ladylike cocktail-sipping). In a rocks glass, for more serious indulging. I also like the 1800. I've enjoyed tequila bars and tastings, but I like Cuervo Gold the best. Starting drinking tequila in 1983 and never wavered. I also like margaritas (preferably made with Grand Marnier or Cointreau), & a glass of wine when out to dinner. And Grand Marnier very occasionally, as an aperitif. Champagne. I actually rarely drink these days, and to me it's part of social occasions; I got into alot of trouble being a wild drinker when I was younger, & found as I'm older it leaves me feeling too crappy physically, & I no longer have the patience to deal with the aftermath of whatever stupid crap I did when drunk. So I drink maybe twice a year.
I believe it's a Canadian right of passage for teenage girls to barf up some baby duck. My friend threw hers up into my crocheted handbag at a Supertramp concert.
Either a bloody mary or a white russian. Although Im not real big on mixed drinks, I prefer beer. But every once in awhile I get a craving for a bloody mary.
Malibu Rum and pineapple juice
ReplyDeleteSnookie this is good too with club soda, in Hawaii they call it a "wave rider"
DeleteKatydid- are you an island girl too?

ReplyDeleteI don't drink many cocktails these days - though in my younger days I loved a good Seabreeze.
ReplyDeleteI stick to wine now. You don't have to place your faith in the bartender and it has self-contained portability.

Grand Marnier = digestif. Used the wrond word above. Sorry.
Delete"wrong". AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!
DeleteI must concur with your choice of margarita with Grand Marnier or Cointreau. Pappadeaux makes a margarita that will rock your world. Add to that crawfish étouffée and oysters Rockafeller and I'm in heaven.
DeleteBloody Mary or Bloody Bull
ReplyDeleteDo yall get babyduck "champagne" in the states?
ReplyDeleteWhat's babyduck champagne, Derek?
DeleteNo, but we have Andre's Cold Duck :)
DeleteAnd we have baby backribs.
DeleteIt is this nasty cheap sparkling wine/champagne type thing that usually teenage girls drink and tastes like hairspray.
DeleteI believe it's a Canadian right of passage for teenage girls to barf up some baby duck. My friend threw hers up into my crocheted handbag at a Supertramp concert.
DeleteI recall cherry vodka being a rite of passage back in the late 1970's. Back before flavored Absolute Vodka was a glimmer in anybody's eye.
Deleteno but we got baby got it from the back champagne
DeleteEither a bloody mary or a white russian. Although Im not real big on mixed drinks, I prefer beer. But every once in awhile I get a craving for a bloody mary.
