@mschuette Nope. I’m not big into the smoky stuff, so I am pretty much Highlands all the time. On the rare occasions that I want to mix it up a bit, I’ll have a little Blue Label, but that’s about the extent of the peat for me. Which I admit is odd, because I do like Mezcal…
@IndifferentDude@spacemart@yakkoTDI well, ya learn somethin’ every day and today I learned the origin on the band name UB40. I did not know that in all the years of listening but now it makes sense.
@haydesigner@pmarin@shahnm luckily I can’t speak from experience, but I’ve read that people who have been resuscitated after drowning report that when their lungs filled with water, it was euphoric. A brief moment of being in the womb.
Ever since my ex-wife moved away I have literally lost all desire to drink alcohol. So I guess I don’t really have an “adult beverage” in particular anymore…
Festive cocktails. Coffee is year-round. Beer is always good. I like a nice bourbon. I like eggnog, but my digestive system begs to differ, so I have it sparingly. Often spiked.
@zinimusprime I drink 2 cups in the morning
I drink 2 cups at night
I drink 2 cups in the afternoon
It makes me feel alright.
…And really awake so that the morning is still the night before. I don’t know anymore. Why can’t I sleep?
Scotch. Just like in the summer. And spring. Oh, and fall.
But Bourbon, tequila, mezcal, and various other spirits will do as well.
And wine.
But also beer.
@shahnm any seasonal changes? Islay in the colder months, Speyside Spring, anything like that?

Hot cocoa. Not just for kids.
/giphy hot cocoa
all those things plus red wine
@spacemart
@IndifferentDude @spacemart Good old Unemployment Benefits form #40.

I chose Egg Nog but I prefer mine “spiked” with Southern Comfort!!
/giphy drunk
@IndifferentDude I spike mine with Wild Turkey! I call it the Turkey Nog.
One that sounds gross but it really good is a Jager Nog.
Good ol’ H2O.
@haydesigner Careful, I heard that dihydrogen monoxide can kill you…!
@haydesigner @shahnm as can dinitrogen monoxide (commonly nitrous oxide) But for a while anyway it will seem like more fun that drowning.

I hope none of us have to find out.
Egg nog with bourbon, beer side car.
Shockingly, that’s what Santa likes as well.
Hot buttered rum!
Ever since my ex-wife moved away I have literally lost all desire to drink alcohol. So I guess I don’t really have an “adult beverage” in particular anymore…
Adult beverage? You mean as in a single malt scotch that’s more than 18 years old?
Yeah, that would do but I like 25 year old better. More refined.
Don’t really have a favourite in my old age but in my youth a glass of Malibu rum and cream soda was always good.
All of the above…
And more as suits my mood and the occasion
Festive cocktails. Coffee is year-round. Beer is always good. I like a nice bourbon. I like eggnog, but my digestive system begs to differ, so I have it sparingly. Often spiked.
Water. Plenty of it.
@Chakolate I have a much harder time drinking enough water in the winter.
Coffee in the morning, water in the day. Sometimes Polar diet orange or caffeine-free diet coke. I know, I know!
@andyw you need to calm it down
/giphy slow down
Hot chocolate with blackberry vanilla moonshine
Do you like piña coladas?
@xenophod I do like pina coladas!
@Tripod2 It’s summer somewhere!
@xenophod I like piña coladas but getting caught in the rain in winter sucks.
@macromeh I agree, the further you get from the equator, the more sucky getting caught in the rain gets.
Sometimes I’ll go wild and make a tea with my water.
@show_the_maw It’s even better if you put certain types of leaves in your water!
@shahnm @show_the_maw Do you mean catnip?
Hot apple cider with a dash of cinnamon.
Hot coffee with a shot of Irish Cream of your choice I say
Fresca, straight up.
More coffee
Coffee - sometimes I go crazy and have one in the afternoon.

@pmarin What about every 10,000pts?
sazerac w an orange peel twist
Cognac and a small amount of very good coffee on the side.
To mix them would be an insult to both of them.
Lagavulin, Ardbeg and up the smoke to Laphruig.
