    Long Island Iced Tea - King of coktails.

    This has been discussed, again and again and again and always we (the denizens of the CP lounge) have come to the conclusion that their method of rating is pure, untouched, unadulterated, genuine, verifiable, refined trash. MIM on TIOBE

      How can you like single malt Scotch and still like bourbon?

        Doesn't it just ruin the apple juice? Vodka and apple juice would be better... sort of... :) (I only drink bourbon if I am very drunk and then only if even the Budweiser has been finished. A drink of last resort.)

        Bourbon actually mixes fairly well with slightly acidic fruit juices. The vanilla flavors complement the fruit, with the acid somewhat offsetting the sweetness of the bourbon.

          Very nice with tomato juice, but what's Climato?  Is that kid sister safe? BTW, Underberg also makes for a very good repair tool.  A shot of that chased with a Castle Milk Stout and you're up and away! :cool:

          Clamato[^]. A salty tomato-and-clam flavored beverage. There's a beef flavored variation called Beefamato. They're delicious, and if you overindulge along with alcohol you will become severely dehydrated. Well, i did at least. My head throbs just thinking about it.

            One of my friends makes a 'Perfect Margarita', It's a margarita on the rocks (1800) with a 1/2 shot of whiskey as a secret ingredient. It goes down smooth and is the perfect accompaniment for any occassion.

            Apple Jack also works pretty well in a margarita, if you like fruity flavors. Then again, i'll take just about anything over tequila... :-O

              Have you had good bourbon? See if you can get a taste of Woodford Reserve. Two fingers over a single ice cube, sipped slowly with a good conversation chaser.

              You are probably right. I've had Jack Daniels and that is about it. I'll look out for Woodford Reserve. If I still find it too sweet and harsh I'll be mailing it to you.

                You may find it too sweet, although it's not as bad as many. It's not at all harsh though, and for me the intense flavor trumps most else. I toured the distillery a couple of years back, and one arm got drenched in the unfiltered stuff as the tour guide demonstrated how they filter it - the scent stayed with me the rest of the day, bringing a happy smile to my face whenever i would bring my hand near it. I detest cologne, but if my wife would pick me up a bottle of this stuff i'd cheerfully wear what i didn't drink... (oh come on, it's a thread on cocktails - what's the point of participating if i can't make it even more disturbing ;) )

                  Good thing the cops didn't pull you over on the way home and do an alcohol test eh. "Sure thing sir, it is your cologne. Right, we've heard that one before. Did you drink your cologne? Oh, you were at a distillery you say... you aren't helping your case sir... a demonstration? Sir, please, just come quitely and we won't mention the cologne story to anybody in your overnight prison cell." (Funnily enough Fiona's sister got pulled over by cops and was breathalyzed. She was over the limit but swears she hadn't had a drink in days. Turns out it was her mouth wash. She uses non-alcoholic mouth wash these days.)

                            I think he's referring to an American-style beer brewed by Anheiser Busch, named "Busch" and selling for a bit less than their flagship beer, Budwieser.

                                It's a very cheap beer that we discovered back in the day driving down to Endfest near Seattle. You can drop into any 7-11 type store on the highway, pick up about 42 Busch for the price of a liter of milk and laugh hysterically while drinking it and finding all the different ways to pronounce "Busch". You can do this because it has very little alcohol in it (to be fair few US beers do).

                                  Ah. So by cocktail he must be referring to the cocktail of chemicals used to get a beer fermented in 24 hours.

                                    Very nice with tomato juice, but what's Climato?  Is that kid sister safe? BTW, Underberg also makes for a very good repair tool.  A shot of that chased with a Castle Milk Stout and you're up and away! :cool:

                                    As Shog has pointed out, this is Clamato[^]. When it was introduced into Canada, they used to have some pretty funny commercials on TV. Like people open a faucet over a sink and out would come some Clamato juice. Or a group of golfers seeking cover from the sprinkler system. Only the the sprinkler system was spouting Clamato again instead of water. Oh and I always misspell the word, too. :)

                                      It's a very cheap beer that we discovered back in the day driving down to Endfest near Seattle. You can drop into any 7-11 type store on the highway, pick up about 42 Busch for the price of a liter of milk and laugh hysterically while drinking it and finding all the different ways to pronounce "Busch". You can do this because it has very little alcohol in it (to be fair few US beers do).

                                      That is so wrong in so many ways. :-D Sounds like a student beer.

                                        Clamato[^]. A salty tomato-and-clam flavored beverage. There's a beef flavored variation called Beefamato. They're delicious, and if you overindulge along with alcohol you will become severely dehydrated. Well, i did at least. My head throbs just thinking about it.

                                        Clamato is awesome. Never tried Beefamato though. Any particular alcohol you recommend it with? I've only had it straight. BTW, its one of the best cures for a hangover.

                                          Ah. So by cocktail he must be referring to the cocktail of chemicals used to get a beer fermented in 24 hours.

                                          Brilliant deduction! That must be it. X| Or if he's truly a red neck as he states, beer might be as close as he gets to an actual cocktail. :~ Cheers! :beer:
