Since it's such a festive time of the year, what are your favorites?

I like Tom Collins (Vodka) and Screwdrivers myself. For shots I prefer Sambuca.

Now I know there are some people who appreciate their alcohol here so please feel free to chime in.

It's still Christmas in my mind, my GF is still wrapping presents. wink

Vodka (any brand, I often drink the cheap stuff) with OJ (actually Crystal Lite orange drink), or dark rum with the OJ (that one is kindasorta an acquired taste thing). I have also been known to drink the vodka with Crystal Lite iced tea. I would prefer the name brand stuff (Stoli isn't bad), but would rather use the cheap stuff and have extra $ for other things. Having limited storage space and a small refer makes Crystal Lite a really good thing...

Not big on drinks per se, but American Honey neat (really, it's the only way to drink it) is nice -- store it in the 'fridge or freezer. Other than that, a nice Bordeaux. . .

I don't mind Vodka but it doesn't seem to like me despite several attempted introductions smile

Cocktails:
Margarita, on the rocks w/salt
(top shelf version with 100% blue agave tequila and real lime)
Other than that I tend to stick w/rum and coke or JD and Coke (or similar)

Shots:
100% agave double distilled tequila - el patron comes to mind
Makers Mark
Templeton Rye
Cheap rum (I can't tell the difference so I don't pay it smile )

Zaya Rum = Good
Cazadores (Spell?) Tequila = Good
Crown Royal = Good
Jack Daniels (Any) = Good

Zaya + RC = Good
JD + RC = Good
Crown + RC = Good
Tequila Straight or Margarita = Good

Those are my favorite, if I can't get RC then sub Pepsi Cola smile

And I enjoy Red Wine... a nice cab smile and long walks on the beach... oh darn, wrong thread... ha!

TaKillYa is OK. I like vodka and rum better, but it will do in a pinch...
