News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Ok. I like to imbibe alcohol in various forms whilst eating salty food with vinegar on it. These two things are normal to consume together, especially for people tied to that rainy archipelago up and to the left of France.

Then, thanks to Chemical Free Bear on Twitter I remembered one of my labs from last semester:

Ethanol+acetic acid+hydrocholoric acid catalyst=ethyl acetate. Which smells like and is an ingredient in nail polish remover.

Yep.

But, to otherwise answer the question, when low on money, which is default, and I want to get more bang than I should for my buck, plastic bottle Kentucky rotgut whiskey, aka Old Thompson.

When I have a little more, Sam Adams, Guinness or Bass.

Well, if we're going to be honest about it now, I quite like a Vespa:

3 parts gin
3 parts vodka
2 parts Cocchi Americano

Served very cold, with a twist of grapefruit rind

Or, a 1794:

3 parts Rye
3 parts Campari
2 parts sweet (red) vermouth

Served neat, with a blood orange garnish.


And why yes, I do wear a fedora while drinking them.

I'm a big fan of a classic gin martini. 

If I'm at home, I'll likely dirty it up a little, but I don't trust olive brine in bars.

I make a really good golden margarita. I'm somewhat known for it.

Sauza Hornitos tequila
Cointreau (Or Grandma works here as well, it's just more expensive.)
Triple-Sec, make sure it's alcoholic
Fresh lime juice

Serve that in a martini glass with a salted rim. Kiss your ass goodbye.

Or, if you would rather have a full margarita on the rocks, you can include sour mix. Sometimes I will just make my own out of orange juice and Rose's Lime. Basically it comes down to what you can afford, or how well the bar is stocked. If you're feel fancy, you can always switch out the Cointreau with Chambord and make a raspberry version, or Pama, or whatever gross Pucker you want to put in there.

Cointreau and Triple Sec?

Salty

It was beer.
Or Vodka cranberry, or neat whisky.

Now I am on the hunt for a non saccharine virgin standby.

50/50 juice and water seems like a winner.

Perhaps, italian soda.

My BF drinks sprite and sour mix when he's driving. It still looks like a cocktail but not. I also recommend cranberry and soda water.

I call that one a Grateful Dead if you use Chambord instead of sour mix. Then you have a blue and pink drink! Of course, just get rid of the blue curacao and add coke instead of sprite, and you have a Long Island Iced Tea.  8) Either way you go with that, you're drunk.
