Not a big spirits drinker

but when I did dabble, neat or

Vodka and lime
Whisky and Orange
G & T

[v8gaz]

good whiskey with water
Jamesons neat with ice
Bourbon neat with ice or as a Manhattan
Rum with coke, as a Mojito, or anything off Cotton's cocktail list
Cheap brandy with Soda
Good Brandy / Cognac neat
Cooking Gin and schweppes tonic
Tanqueray Ten as a Martini, easy on the Lillet, olives or if available a twist of Grapefruit. Stirred. Shaken is for idiots as you get a glasss of ice shards.

I had the bar staff at T5 trained to make the perfect Tanq 10 Martini - I was travelling with a bloke I don't usually travel with and the bar man had the Tanq 10 Martini ready when we sat down.

'You must fly a lot' said my colleague. 'No', said the barman, 'he just drinks a lot'

No vodka, bad experience as a student Tried to drive home the next day until I got 50 yards and realised I couldn't see.



What drink problem?

[Paddy]

Whiskey and Stone's Ginger in the winter ( or UK summer)
If it's really really hot; Gin and Indian Tonic and a load of ice.
Good vodka neat.
Absinthe with crushed ice.
Dark rum neat, (Bootlegger is quite good)
Cuban rum with lime, mint and ice

Funny you should mention that. My last really bad night with spirits was a card night with neat vodka. Never again.
