God, love you Tom. You introduced me to the BEST vodka! So smooth, and deceptively mild. Fantastic stuff. What was it again?
That night was all a haze.
Really planning hard for that cruise, Besty?
I used to love cosmos.
There's something at the Chocolate Factory that I love. It's this sweet, syrupy, cherry thing. I have no idea what it's called, but it's delicious.
LOL!
To hell with a winter coat! I'll just drink myself warm.
EDIT: nits--whatever it is, it sounds great!
I'm partial to White Russians (named Serge or...), appletinis, rum & coke (with the Andrews Sisters!), and my very own KILLER margaritas!
The secret?
Equal parts: Tequila (get the best), Triple Sec & Mr. T & T's Sweet & Sour Mix (NOT any kind of margarita mix)!
LUKSUSOWA (first post!) Best potato vodka on the planet! (Not expensive either!! No hangover.

Tom! I didn't even recognize it when you called it out.
I'm such an amateur. A wannabe fan.
On the diet drink side... I like Diet Rite! No calories, no sugar, no salt, no caffeine. Apparently, it's made with absolutely nothing. And I love it!

IS anyone old enough to recall Dite Rite back in the early 70's? Sweetened with Cyclamates, heavenly. When the FDA banned it, my neighbor bought out the local IGA. God that was good!

Non-alcoholic: Coffee
Alcoholic: The cheapest white house wine on the menu - and only one glass of that since it's usually minimally 6-8 bucks and I can get a whole damn bottle for that at the grocery store.
water.
on the rocks
Luksusowa? Never heard of it.
I will have to try that next time, Tom....though I'm not a fan of tonic.

I used to love anything with gin in it--especially a Gin Gimlet. However, the diabetes medication I'm on doesn't seem to agree with alcohol, so now my drink of choice is Diet Coke with Lime.
...in a dirty glass, right, Mamie?
I don't have a good picture, but the frozen cranberry margaritas at Chevy's are soooo good! They only serve them around the Christmas holidays, so that's the only time we go.
Recipe:
1 1/4 cup cranberry juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup fresh frozen cranberries, rinsed
3/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
3/4 cup tequila
1/2 cup Grand Marnier
ice
Pour half of mixture in the blender and fill rest with ice. Blend. Repeat with second half of mixture. Makes minimum of two blender batches.
