What are your favorite classy, yet common drinks that you order in a bar? Someone, who shall remain nameless, but I'm sure you know, as I chronicled my vacation, complained I don't switch up my drinks enough and don't know enough. Here's what I typically order:
- Corona beer
- Margarita
- Screwdriver or mimosa
- Sapphire and tonic (he introduced me to those on this vacation)
- Red or white wine
- Cosmo (not my fav by far)
- Manhattan (except I get heartburn occasionally)
- Jack and coke (my all time favorite, but I get grief from someone and many since I'm not from the east. Let's just say that I fit in on the cruise ship.)
- Long islands (fine, but 99% of the time I won't order because I'm not going to be getting hella plastered)
- Electric lemonade (see above comment)
I like tequila and vodka is fine since it mixes with everything. I'm not going to go order a sex on the beach, so no kinky names... hahaha
Oh, and I order too many girly drinks... I had 2 pina coladas on vacation. I had the fruity drink special 1 day on the ship. I like sweet drinks, but want to try less girly associated drinks.
Mike: Does a Shirley Temple count?
ReplyDeleteI'm not much different than you. I only have a few drinks that I order: White wine (various kinds, whatever the restaurant has good), vodka and cranberry, margarita, chocolate martini, and Bud Light. (I like buttery nipples too, but I can't bring myself to order them). For the most part that's it. If I am in New Orleans, it is usually whatever has rum in it, so that I can have a hurricane at Pat O's. I have one strict rule though, whatever I drink first is what I stick with the rest of the night. It cuts down on the horrors of the hangover.
ReplyDeleteI like long islands, lol. How do you get plastered from just one of those? o_O I also like mojitos and sex on the beach. :-P
ReplyDeleteI just had my first whiskey sour last night - nice!

ReplyDeleteor Crown and redbull!
Or bacardi limone and sprite... all delish!
@ fan of casey: LOL... nonalcoholic... hehehe
ReplyDelete@ Joe Blow: I agree with everything you say. I like white wine, margaritas, and white beer.
@ Aek: I don't, but who orders a long island sitting at a restaurant other than Fridays? LOL.
@ Marvin: Love the whiskey sour, but I didn't drink any on our trip, although they were offered several times. I was having bad heartburn and thought that would make it worse.
@ TyinSD: I am not a vodka/redbull fan, but I am going to try that Bacardi Limon and Sprite. That sounds delish!
