    Re: Favorite drink to order at a bar?

    Okay, I couldn't care less about what an anonymous messageboard poster likes to drink, but I was drawn in and have to ask... what is grape bomb?

    I imagine something similar to what the waitresses used to carry table-to-table in test tubes back when Big Shots was in its hay day. Anyone? Big Shots $5 all-you-can-drink Thursdays???

    Used to be Long Island Iced Tea no question

    It's largely been replaced by Whiskey (Jack) and Coke.

    Still mix it up with a LIIT or Captain/Coke from time to time

    Dude...Absolute without a mixer? IMO, Absolute is the poster child for what good marketing can do for a product, despite the quality.

    Next time order Grey Goose, Vox, or Kettle One (my fav). The bar will charge you the same and you'll get a much higher quality/better tasting martini.

    It's called Google. I used it to find out what it was and it took 5 seconds...


    My drinks are:
    1) Vodka Sour
    2) Country Club Special (7-Up, Sour, lots of Vodka)
    3) Jack n Coke

    What is this "Google" you speak of?

    Honestly, I was hoping to reminisce with some others who enjoyed Big Shots during its hay day more than anything.

    Buy, hey. Enjoy a vodka sour and have a great night.

    As an anonymous messageboard poster I will gladly take a pillow and a bed more than anything else right now. Good night!

    Correct on the contents of a Rusty Nail

    Drink too many Rusty Nails and you'll develop tetanus.

    Agreed, but usually Absolute is charged at the same rate as the better vodka's. Maybe I'm wrong ,but I believe that is the experience I've seen.

    Root Beer & Jaeger if I can get it. Root beer is a very underrated mixer.

    Good beer. Otherwise, if I have to, a bloody mary with beer back.

    Coke and Jaeger is actually really good. Not joking.
    In 1984, I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.
