I was given a bottle of wine from Macedonia. It was like nectar! I googled the label & it's available in Aldi stores in Europe at the costly sum of 1 euro 49!! (so I'm easily pleased then).

What's your favourite wine/tipple?

> What's your favourite wine/tipple?

My favourite tipple is Yorkshire Tea - you can't beat a cuppa , nice and strong like builder's tea !!!!

I am T-total :-D

Dont drink often but if i do it has to be southern comfort and lemonade, i get reallllly drunk on wine,and its not apretty sight LOL

Home made Sloe gin.

Ditto although I can really dance with my mate vino.... !! Or so I think ;-)

Home made Sloe gin.

I'll second that one :-)

My fav has to be Morgans Spiced and coke.
Tastes like caramel mmmmmmm!!!
Or Sailor Jerry's with lemonade and lime. :-)

Don't go out, so haven't had a drink in years.  But I am not overly fond of the taste of alcohol.  As long as it tastes like pop, I can manage it.

I did find once though, that my liking for pop tasting drinks, made me feel as if someone had taken the bones out of my legs! 

I just couldn't stand! 

The nectar is Southern Comfort, dash of lime, served in a long glass with ice and Canada Dry.  You can drink a surprising amount if you like the taste of pop!  :-)  :-)

Plz can I have the recipe for sloe gin?

I am a G & T lady.

Pimms and Ice at the moment, lots of fruit, so I am getting one of my "five a day", if I want to be really healthy I will have another glass..........

You might like sloe gin then :-) Bit like a raspberry cordial. Don't drink it as such though, fatal :-(

You mean you drink it by the glass?  I usually make a jugfull - saves going back into the kitchen!

vodka and diet coke or a cup of tea.

Well I make up for all the tee-totallers then!

I like all of them, nice beers, proper lagers, white wine, rose, red (particularly a nice rioja), and I love spirits, the only drinks I don't like are cider and vodka (unless it's been doctored, adding fruit to give it a nice flavour). 

I make different things in the winter, like bramble brandy, black currant vodka, raspberry vodka, bilberry vodka (lots of flavoured vodka) and damson gin.  Then once I've strained the liquid off, I use the fruit in deserts or make something called fruit cheese, which you can slice and have with cheese and crackers, none of it goes to waste!  And, btw, I don't drink all of it, I give lots of it away as presents ;)

If I was pushed, I'd say a nice whiskey or bourbon, nothing better on a cold winter evening to have a drop of good whiskey! 

I'm with you SleepingLion although I don't really like beers and lagers. I love a nice dry white wine, Pinot Grigio, Sauvingon Blanc etc. But my favourite spirit has to be Jameson Irish whiskey!

Ya see I'd go for the Blackbush, and for Scottish it'd have to be a nice Ardbeg or a lighter Edradour.  I like the big flavours!  The unfortunate thing is, I never suffer from hangovers, so I never get put off having another glass the next evening *sigh* - the amount of hours I have to work for beer and dog food tokens!

I am buying the cans of Pimms so it makes me be good, it's better to drink a can than a jugful ( apparently!!)

well i dont drink but on the odd occasion a lovely warming glass of red wine goes down a treat, i do love hot chocolate with marshmellows and sprinkes on top as well,

I love Yorkshire tea............
I love Bacardi and coke................
Currently I have been loving lager and limes, they go well with the hot weather and the footie.
Love Guiness, love red wines.
Most of the above doesn't think much of me though the tea is okay, I am prone to frequent migraine and these sometimes trigger with alcohol.

eta Sloe gin is fab and always welcome.

Good selection!

I've seen 2 quotes that make me smile:

1) "I like cooking with wine: sometimes I even put it in the food"
2) " I drink champagne when I'm happy, or sad, or alone, or have company..otherwise I never touch it unless I'm thirsty".
      (Lily Bollinger, champagne maker)

Ah...........Champagne now that goes without saying!
:)  :)

Amaretto and coke with a dash of lager in the top!! :)

only really have a drink for celebrations, birthdays , anniversaries etc when I do I love quantreau and lemonade , I  like white wine but prefer it sweet which is hard to find...so while on here anyone recommend a goodie??

Brandy and diet coke I am afraid...I do like a glass of the red stuff though, but it goes directly to my head bypassing reason!!!

Oh and on a hot day there is nothing like a banana milk shake made with lashings of ice cream....

for me at the minute its Bacardi and Pineapple its so moreish! or a nice Chateau neuf de pape (expensive but im worth it)

non alcoholic it has to be an Ice cream Cocacola fizz
its so lovely on a summers afternoon x

Amaretto over ice.......lots of it (both the Amaretto and the ice that is :).........Yummy

> Amaretto over ice.......lots of it (both the Amaretto and the ice that is

Oooh and mmmmm............. Once had Amaretto and champagne, now that was lovelyyyyyyyyy... can be easily replicated with any sparkling wine like cava or prosecco :)

Blackberry wine,

Sheila
