    None. I don't drink. Heck, I consume something like 2 aerated drinks a year.

    Cheers, Vikram.

              Back during my college days, the delay was minimal. Now, I spread it out more :) I've learned to taste what I drink... Occasionally I will do a shot and chaser, but not so much these days.

                  Maragaritas are always welcome. Hmm, Saturday afternoon, sitting on the patio, Margarita in hand, bar-b-que sizzling away, balmy 90 degrees in the shade... Yeah, I love summer in California! And I grew rather fond of Tequila Sunrise while vacationing in Cozumel last year (but it might have been the free bar, rather than the drink itself :cool: )

                        I'm not sure if a gin and tonic is a cocktail but boy do I love that drink. Mojito comes in close second though.

                          Without a doubt, one of the tastiest beverages to have, but the absolute worst to drink to intoxication because your hangover is the absolute worst. Its not just bad, its insanely and abysmally bad.

                              G&T. Good gin, but not great - Tanqueray is my usual. Now and then, i like a martini - this does warrant top-shelf gin though. Other simple favorites: bourbon and cranberry juice, manhattan, yellow cake martini (not actually anything close to a martini, but a good not-too-sweet fruity drink), and the venerable mint julep (but only if made with fresh mint, and easy on the sugar). My wife likes mojitos.

                                  When you've had a sufficient amount of alcohol, before you get drunk you get a sense of euphoria termed the "buzz". Its great. So.. Mr. Buzz Killing-ton... get it? Someone that kills your buzz.

                                      Why do you think I need apple juice for bourbon whereas I can take single malt scotch with ice or with soda? :-)

                                        G&T. Good gin, but not great - Tanqueray is my usual. Now and then, i like a martini - this does warrant top-shelf gin though. Other simple favorites: bourbon and cranberry juice, manhattan, yellow cake martini (not actually anything close to a martini, but a good not-too-sweet fruity drink), and the venerable mint julep (but only if made with fresh mint, and easy on the sugar). My wife likes mojitos.

                                        We had wild mint bushes growing outside our house last summer. We'd get home from work, I'd break out the rum and we'd sit mixing cocktails in the sun on our deck chairs with fresh mint. Only thing that comes close is a beer on a boat while fishing on a hot summers day.

                                          None. I don't drink. Heck, I consume something like 2 aerated drinks a year.

                                          Cheers, Vikram.

                                          Aerated? I aerate my plants by stabbing sharp objects around the roots... Now i have a picture of you sitting - glowering - at a tall glass of liquid with a hunting knife sticking out of it... :~
