Favorite Cocktails

[hepcat]

I have to go with the Old Fashioned right now. I just started drinking it a few months ago and it has become my drink of choice. Now if it's a busy night at the bar and the bartender would kill me for asking for a drink that takes more than 10 seconds to prepare, I'll probably just get beer. But if it's a good bartender that has the time to put the effort into the drink it deserves, it's so worth it. I had to google what "bitters" was.

godfather vodka martini. mind blowing. this is one of my specialties at the bar i work at :D

i also make a mean pear kamikaze and my rum runners are bitchin.

for the ladies: pomegranate martini, i make mine with belvedere grapefruit vodka, pomegranate liqueur and freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice. which is still not outdone by my cancun monsoon, to date my most successful recipe. if i make one i end up making sixty.

don't get a professional mixologist started on these types of threads :)

I never know what to order at a bar, so I stick to gin and tonics.

oh god no

you are missing out

my pet peeve is dick bartenders that are too snarky to help someone pick out a drink. i love helping people decide on something that suits them, make suggestions, suggest particular flavors, etc... if i end up making someone their new favorite drink it's a successful day :cheers2:

Suggest something for me, please.

I did have some banana thing at Margaritaville that was delish. That was years ago, though. I guess I like fruity things.

what have you had besides gin and tonics that you like? any particular liquors or drinks?

do you like stuff really sweet? really fruity? give me some guidelines and i'll make some suggestions.

I've had the same thing there. But the best thing Margaritaville has is the Coastal Carolina, frozen. Very good.

But I'd rather just drink beer.

A long time ago, someone here who was a bartender said that they never put alcohol in frozen drinks. I haven't ordered one since.

I like sour stuff, and a little sweet. Fruity is fine. If it helps any, I love white peach sangrias.

Whoever that was is lying, or speaking for himself. You can watch them make it. Its made the same, then ice gets dumped in it or whatever.

But anyhow, like I said, no problem is too big for Keith Stone to fix.
