Earl Grey tea. Two per day.

Guinness. My Grandad gave me two pieces of advice his whole life: Do not cheat at poker; drink Guinness. So I don't, and I do.

Diet Coke. Vanilla, caffeine free, plain, lemon, I don't give a shit.

Organic fruit juice. Not arsed what flavour.

White Russians. Coz of The Dude, and the taste.

Bloody Marys. Coz of Hemingway, and the taste.

Budvar.

Gin and tonic.

A nice malt now and then, expensive and in a pub in Scotland.

Brandy.

I'M BORING MYSELF TO FUCKING DEATH.


SORRY2004.

Oh man this thread is making me salivate. Can I get the following please:

-A crisp Czech beer. A real Bud, perhaps.
-A Cuba Libre made with Wray & Nephew white rum and FRESH lime.
-A Gordon's gin & tonic
-A white beer. Hoegaarden preferably.
-7 Jack Daniels and Diet Cokes

And for total liver-stripping action:

-A Wild Turkey, heavily iced.


All spirits must be double measures. Put it on the tab.

Zubrowka Bison Grass Vodka with Apple Juice and Ice.

A liquid version of apple pie.

Someone also bought me a bottle of Kalashnikov Vodka for christmas, endorsed by Red Army hero and general Mikhail Kalashnikov, inventor of AK-47 Kalashnikov Rifle, the world's most popular weapon.



Zdorovie, Comrade!

Lots of cold tap water, sometimes with a berocca dissolved therein.

Guinness when I go to the pub. If I can find them, I'll drink Australian beers, favourites being Tooey's New and Carlton Cold. British lager is fucking worthless.

RUM! My all time favourite is Barralitos 3* but you can't get that over here. Mount Gay from Barbados is a close second. Bundaberg from Australia goes really well with Coke or ginger ale.

Diet Irn Bru is my soft drink of choice. Until recently Irn Bru outsold Coke in Scotland. It tastes awesome and also mixes well with rum.

I went through a phase of drinking 'bambus' last summer - it's red wine mixed 50/50 with Coke. Only advisable with crappy wine though.

I will never drink Buckfast again......

You can get away with adding coke to a Jameson's in Ireland, but asking for it with Ginger Ale will most assuredly get you very funny looks.

And I think that's disgusting, that crazy Coke thing. When I was there I was just drinking Guinness or Jameson's neat.
The Imperial Pint, she is tricky.

Also:
Good coffee. More, please.
Irish breakfast tea, with milk.
Sweet tea.
Water, just below room temp. I am lonely in the position of not liking very cold water.
KY straight bourbons. We had one at a friend's wedding reception that his dad ordered...Buffalo Trace. I liked this bourbon. It's unavailable here.
Juices--any kind. Mostly apple.

Cranius, na zdrowie! It's good to know someone has an appreciation of Polish vodka, IMO the best vodka in the world.

This is a good drink, although it took a little getting used to. Some buddies down in southern California introduced it to me and they call it a Calimucho (sp?).

Didn't they invent the stuff?

Favorite Beer: Guinness

Favorite Drink (non-alcoholic): Cream Soda or Diet Coke

Favorite Mixed Drink: Car Bomb

I have pretty pedestrian taste.

Howdy partner, this room is awfully empty.... I too am not well for the ice-cold water. Me girlfriend and I are constantly fighting over where the Britta should go. I like to leave it on the counter, she always puts it in the fridge...BITCH!

Anyway I just installed one of those units that goes right on the tap so I can just get mine from the tap... still a little too cold for my liking.

funny I don't like my food to hot either... My high school friend Anne Glascock used to call me "Tepid Jeeje".

Really it's that simple. Coffee, cigarettes, alcohol, etc. cause major dehydration, so you need to be drinking water with those few glasses of wine/beer, and most likely this won't happen anymore, no?

Take it from someone who knows. Someone who drinks enough to know.

Yeah, I have suspected simple dehydration as the cause, but like bumble picked up on, this only ever happens when I drink the red wine or the dark beer.

I don't know, I'm going to try drinking a glass of water to every glass of wine/beer and see if it goes away. If not then I think I must be allergic to something...

That's perfect. I'm not pretending to know if you have an allergy or not, and I hope I didn't come off that way.

This is exactly what I do. Always have a glass of water along with every drink and you'll feel a lot better. Also, I find I can go all night! (The ladies are impressed)
