I'm betting mass quantities of alcohol will be consumed tonight.....

Got the JD stuff tonight its pretty damn good

Rainy day old fashioned

Voodoo Ranger 9% imperial ale

thunderstorms now

Love this.

Jose Cuervo Gold and Arizona Mucho Mango with snacks. Pretty damn good.

Basically mango margarita? That sounds really good!

It mixes well. The Mango Mucho was a little sweeter than I like but it pairs well.

I'll buy some regular Mango juice next time at the store. :thumb:

Drink of choice tonight? PART DEUX
 

There's a mango flavored monster that has a Dia de los Muertos theme on the can. That stuff is a tremendous mixer. Still sweet but has some other juices in there too.

Corona light with a lime for me

Just do Modelo man.

I finally caved and bought a bottle of New Amsterdam Pink Whitney that’s been flying off the shelves. Not bad chilled.

New Amsterdam is the most underrated vodka out there.

I used to be snobby about vodka. Wouldn't go lower than Absolut and preferred Kettle One, Belvedere or Tito's.

A friend finally convinced me to try New Amsterdam about 6 months ago and I wish I had done it way sooner. Could have saved a lot of money. IMO it's actually better than the high end brands. Every time I splurge now and buy the expensive stuff it's never even as good as New Amsterdam.

Haven't seen this Pink Whitney around here, will have to keep an eye out!

You are correct. But I'd recommend you try both blends that Costco sells too.

I can't drink energy drinks-I have bad reactions to caffeine. :eek:

It shows up in fits and spurts and sells like crazy. Who knew there were so many pink lemonade fans?

Ah yeah this ain't for you then. You might look at the sparkling ice line of drinks. They have a bunch of flavors and they're typically not overpowering and zero calories. Every one I've had tastes pretty good.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1872f47e39.jpg

In January I pretty-much gave up anything with bubbles in it and have zero regrets... ZERO... It doesn't me I don't partake of adult beverages, I just do my level best to serve myself/order ones that have no bubbles. It has been awesome..

It's way too early to be drinking you assholes

Handle bottle to handle bottle I think I prefer Pinnacle to almost everything but the good Costco Vodka

I buy pinnacle if I'm not going to Costco. Like 16/handle.

A kinda dirty vodka martini, a double, made with the Costco vodka and 5 (YES FIVE!!!) Costco garlic/jalapeno olives. I make mine my way (**** what other people think), I put it in a stemless wine glass, and the double-shot (more like a shot-and-a-half) is topped off with ice and water.

It[s going down very well...

Ahh yes, I don’t have a membership there because the closest one is about 30 minutes away, but my sister picked me up a bottle of the Kirkland’s blend and it was damn good. I’ve heard they are just buying from Grey Goose and bottling it under their brand and I believe it. It was damn smooth.

Makers 46

I heard the same thing. We did a side-by-side taste test, and if it's not GG, it's darn close. Close enough to relaly appreciate the Costco price.

Going with some Boru Irish vodka tonight on the recommendation of a colleague.

Only Irish vodka sold in the US. 5 times distilled from Irish grains and spring water. Let me tell you, this is downright lovely. Dirt cheap, $12.99 for a 750 ML bottle. Ridiculously smooth. Going about 60/40 with club soda and it’s going down like water. Don’t buy expensive vodka anymore, it’s not worth it. Boru and New Amsterdam have you covered.

Club soda, ice and a lime wedge. A nice little platter of Italian meat and some good cheese from our local shop. Dog and cat lying in between me and the wife on the balcony. Kids out cold in their rooms. Looking up at the stars after a 55 hour week making bucks.

America still rocks.

add some "devils spit" brine

Lies, It's all lies

after that repair, I'd do Booker's

$20 1.75 liter

Boulevardier tonight.

1 oz Campari
1 oz sweet vermouth
1.5 oz rye whiskey

Stirred in glass and garnished with orange twist.

Pool later and probably beer.

Very watered-down dirty martini. The way I like them.

Interesting choice....

Sipping Eagle Rare on rock until ice melts, slamming the remaining. Water back It's like a timer.

Just a couple (or was it three?) Margaritas with ice.

How nice. :thumb:

Summertime's finest drink along with a frozen margarita.

My two favorites :clap:

I've only seen that blackberry lemonade at Costco, but it's gotta be elsewhere and if you're a fan of lemonades in general you'll really like that one.

I've switched pace here this evening. Getting a little more mellow with a Woodford Reserve Double Oaked with bitters, lemon and rosemary infused honey simple syrup .

Iced Tea brewed in the AZ sun. All day, every day.

Hope you had the lid closed during this evenings monstrous dust storm. :shake:

It is excellent... had it a year or two ago and still have that awesome can.

Does anybody use any of these round ice makers?

http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/201273...-1/s-l1000.jpg

They have it back on tap right now if you make it to the one in North Scottsdale :thumb:

Huge fan!

I've been drinking two of these per day, they are fantastic and just 10 calories for the Orange Mango Zero I buy!!!

Blackberry whiskey sour today.

Refreshing.

Lime juice, a few grinds of smoked salt, in a light lager or ale. We've been using Rolling Rock. Summery!!

Where do you get those at?

I didn't, I saw them in an Ad and was wondering if people found them to be valuable. IOW, worth buying?

Looks small.

You want a giant ice sphere. The surface area covered by a large sphere causes the ice to melt slower and thus dilute a good drink less.

Get this instead. Works great for large spheres.

https://www.amazon.com/Tovolo-Leak-F...lbonsitepub-20

I want a set with 2 sizes. What is a class cocktail other than a sphere of ice in a jelly jar?

Tangueray Rangpur Lime with a dash of tonic to keep it interesting. I also like to add just a teaspoon of powdered sugar... helps round out that bite

I'll check this out thanks

I’ve had an incredibly long and stressful week, so I’m looking for a good Bourbon or Scotch fix. Maybe just a really high end Irish Whiskey of some kind. A good mixer recipe or just something straight up.

Something to make me feel really classy before I pass out face first on my couch while hoping I don’t piss myself before morning. Any suggestions?

Oban 18 Year Old Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky - $120-$140

or

Oban Single Malt 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, (86 Proof) - $60+/-

Excellent, thank you! It’s been a stressful but profitable week so I just might go with the 18 year old if I can find it around here.

When I get home tonight, gonna pour up a glass or two of mount gay rum and re watch game of thrones season 1 a bit until I pass out.

I’m not a big rum guy so I’ve never heard of this brand. Looks interesting. You mix it or drink it straight?

Personally I drink it straight, but it goes good with Coca Cola. Good for the price too. I get a nice buzz from it

A couple of days ago ... and in a moment of excessive desperation ... I poured a shot of Jack Daniels into a glass of that light-blue-colored Gatorade.

I call it Venusian Cough Syrup.

In the name of all that is Holy ... do not attempt this.

FAX

LMAO

That’s classic. I love the name you gave it.

In my younger days, I used to mix Seagrams Gin with Lemon Lime (the yellow flavor) Gatorade as my standard drink. Kept me from getting a hangover most of the time. I couldn’t imagine the windshield wash flavor with Jack in it, though. That’s rough.

Is it good?

RedBreast

So this looks like a single pot high end Irish Whiskey. I’m intrigued. Sip it straight or mix?

mix? **** no!

Either neat or chilled (add, stir, and remove ice cube)
