Tequila Rose.....tastes like strawberry milk shake or maybe like Calpol crucifies me everytime.

Younger members of the family go for a can of Dragon Soup when they want something with an edge...a 7 per cent ish energy drink  type thing, reliably informed its effective.


Had a can of that dragon soup  once by mistake ,thought it was a relentless energy drink  - then was wondering what the hit was after going through most the can ,in a bad way .The wife wasnt happy when i couldnt drive her to the shop ,thought i had done it on purpose .

Quoted from BlackandWhiteBarmy2
As I've recently been made redundant again, I've decided to become an alcoholic. What alcoholic beverages do you recommend? I'm talking spirits here, none of your real ale or Chateau Neuf de urine wine. I want individual spirits not generic gin or vodka.

At present I love Single Malt Whisky because I'm a snob although I realise as I become more alcoholic I will be less picky. Current fave is Bruichladdich 'The classic Laddie' its an Islay but it's not peaty. £35 at Tesco with a Clubcard.

OK Go


I've only just got into whisky in my mid-30s. Not ventured to anything more expensive than Highland 12 yet, but I think that's well tasty

If you mean Highland Park 12 then yes it is very tasty. It was one of the whiskies that turned me from someone who just used to throw back a glass of Bells to someone who is learning to appreciate whisky and I'm nearly 58. Wish I'd got into it in my mid thirties. I am typing this as I enjoy a dram of Ardbeg 5 Wee Beastie, I'll be needing another bottle soon, it's bloody lovely.

At this rate I'm going to have to arrange a Fishy Whisky night.


And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery

My poisons of choice when it comes to whisky/whiskey are:

Scotch - The Glenrothes, Cardhu Gold Reserve.

Irish - Green Spot, Jameson Black Barrel.

Liberal measure with a finger of water to help bring the flavour out.

Disclaimer: I can't abide the peaty stuff.

Can't beat a drop of good rum, I've been to Cuba a few times and some of the rum available is Nectar from the gods. Unfortunately I've not managed to get to Cuba since before covid so not sure of the prices now, but it was very reasonable beforehand.

I can drink white rum especially in cocktails, you can't beat a good mojito, but surprisingly, I don't care for the normal stuff and the spiced stuff, to me, is awful.I was gifted a bottle of Woods one christmas and after opening and taking one drink it is now sat on my shelf gathering dust.

Added advantage of drinking whisky is that it's easier to get to Scotland than Cuba.

When I was in Florida a few weeks ago I mainly drank tea.

Twisted tea, can, alcohol content of 5%  

Made with whisky and real brewed tea, actually surprisingly good.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Can't say I particularly like the sound of it, but then I don't like tea. There must be an awful lot of tea in it to take the alcohol content down to 5%. Then again if they told me I could go to Florida as long as I drank one of those a day I'm sure I could manage.
