What's your drink of choice when you belly up to the bar?
Mine is now soda as I don't drink anymore. When I did drink it used to be Long Island Ice Tea. Or Amaretto and Sour was pretty good, too.

4. We pulled a bottle of Maragrita's out of a function the other night...
With the absolutely delicious sounding name of, "Stinky Gringo".

5. Bottled beer. Any kind
No draft, to many keggers in High School and college.

For some reason, I don't like mixed drinks at all. The smell of hard alcohol makes my stomach turn.

6. Patron Anejo straight up with Orange and Tomato Juice mix (sangrita) back.
A rare luxury. Mostly I'm a teatotaler, now, like you, soda and lime.

7. Makers Mark and soda with a squeeze of lemon
but I grew up drinking in Texas. Of course a mighty Hankarita - named after Hank at Bar of Soap - is a close second. If it's not too busy and Hank has his guitar with him, he'll play the Hankarita song after the request for one.

11. Gin and tonic

12. Chivas Regal and water.
It doesn't get any better than that. Smooth as silk, no edge to the scotch. 12 year old blended scotch whiskey.

Yummmmmm.

13. Harvey Wallbanger
I got a bottle of Grey Goose for Xmas, and had the Galliano lying around, so I've been reaquainting myself with the charms of this particular cocktail.

16. Maker's Mark bourbon on the rocks.
My favorite drink when I go out. There's nothing better than going to Gentry's on Halsted, ordering a Maker's Mark and listening to some great music.
