http://www.indy.com/posts/6283 en-us ajt_1978 I'm originally from N.E. Ohio. I use to go to a small bar there, and one of the bartender's would make what she called 'Duck Farts'. I know sounds grooossss. It's quite yummy. Almost like a chocolate milk shake. Its made in a blender with Bailey's, Kahlua, Crown and ice. Delicious. When its made just right, you couldn't taste any alcohol. And would be done for the night very quickly!!

If I have a choice, manhattan, whiskey and coke or the old standby beer.

But I'm guessing my pitchers of gin and lemonade aren't quite as strong as his. They're great to drink out on the deck on a warm, sunny day, even though my fuzzy memories of drinking hairy buffaloes in college confirms the generally good advice of not mixing fruit juice with booze. I generally stick to wine. Usually red. Maybe rose for spring. Although there's a sweet, easy-drinking white that's fun for summertime: Alice White's Lexia (inexpensive and available at grocery stores).

If you're planning on drinking a lot (and who the hell isn't?) the sweet stuff can play havoc with your innards.

Isn't that what Snoop Dogg drinks?

For liquor, I usually go with gin & tonics or dirty martinis. My friends always make a big deal about how I like to drink things that are "hard to like". I can't stand really sweet drinks...they mess with my stomach for some reason.

And mint juleps are great. But if we ever get a nice warm sunny day, have a gin and lemonade.

They have the advantage of being easy to make. If a drink requires more than two steps, my drunk mind isn't likely to hang with it for long.

My personal favorites are: Guinness, a glass (or bottle) of a good Bordeaux, vodka and 7, Cosmopolitans with Cointreau (instead of with triple sec), and Maker's and Coke.

At least after drinking a half dozen or so. It's to my great shame that I've never had a martini. Perhaps I should try classing it up a bit.
