What's your parents' alcoholic drink of choice?

[LostInAnomie]

My Mom is a big fan of red wine, with no particular favorite.

My Dad likes drinking Busch lite.

on edit: I wanted to know what alcohol they drink!!!

[Chan790]

1. Well...

Mom: Beer. Bud Light.

Stepfather: Beer. Assorted ales, all drank at room temperature. I'm trying to get him to try Newcastle.

Bio-Dad: Crystal Light now, previously Miller Lite. (He's a friend of Bill.)

[MorningGlow]

2. Mom prefers decaf coffee

I say...why bother?

That's if you mean alcoholic drinks.

They're handcuffed to eachother in either heaven or hell.

Father: cheap scotch unless somebody buys him something better

[Fenris]

15. Dad - gin; mom - scotch

[yellowdogintexas]

16. my dad liked Miller Lite and my mom would drink it but she liked sangria best nt

[Tuesday Afternoon]

17. well.

Dad is a Jack and Coke kind of man
and, Mom prefers a Gin and Tonic.

Damn, they used to throw some dynamite parties.

[LeftyMom]

18. Dad only drinks beer, and that rarely.

Mom... well, she was in recovery and didn't drink at all for years. Now she has the occasional glass of wine or a beer and stops there. I know that wouldn't work for a lot of people, and I was worried at first, but she had a life that was as defined by not drinking as it used to be defined by drinking, and I think being able to have an occasional social drink and stop there is a really healthy thing for her.

[sasquatch]

27. She didn't do any of that stupid 12 step bullshit did she?

[LeftyMom]

30. She did for years.

She was obsessed with it. It was the central aspect of her life- she hosted a book study, had five sponsees at one point, ran meetings in the local jail, did volunteer training, the hotline phone rang to our house, etc. She relapsed anyhow.

She seems healthier without it. Being obsessed with and defined by being clean and sober didn't seem to be any less life dominating than using was.

[Iggo]

19. Dad, Beer. Mom, Scotch Rocks. (n/t)

[PassingFair]

20. My father was a "tea-totaler" but my mother enjoyed, and still does,

what she likes to call a "stiff" Manhattan.

[Skittles]

25. teetotaler

unless he was English :D

[PassingFair]

33. Scottish....

[MrSlayer]

21. My parents don't drink.

But my brother and I more than make up for it.

[flvegan]

22. Mom likes Bombay Sapphire

and a good creme de menthe.

My dad, to be honest, I don't know. I remember his drink cart. Drambuie, good scotch and fine whiskey, but I never really got to learn my father's drink of choice.

That's a question for the weekend.

[Critters2]

23. My Dad likes his Manhattans, and occasionally a 7/7.

My Mom used to like Cosmos.

[crimsonblue]

24. scotch

[sasquatch]

26. Dad: Rolling Rock beer; Mom: sometimes White Wine

[Ellen Forradalom]

28. I knew how to make an old fashioned

by the time I was 11 years old.

Has remained a running joke between me and my now-sober mother for 30 years.

[Adsos Letter]

[arcadian]

He also wore Old Spice so whenever I smell a combination of Old Spice and gin, I remember my stepfather...

[Taverner]

35. My mom USED to drink White Wine. She's since stopped drinking.

My dad, well for him its more a matter of "whaddya got?"

[Debi]

When he was done I got to eat the cherry out of the bottom of the glass (yeah, after soaking in booze for 1/2 hour!!)
