    Are you a wine, beer, cocktail or heavy liquor drinker?

     

    I drink red wine more than anything, but right now I would love a margarita with extra grand marnier!! (I'm currently 9 months pregnant so a margarita has been off limits for a while now!)

    @Lolasmomma: I love white wine. I always get these massive migraines from red wine. Which is too bad because there are a few I love, but it comes with a headache.

     :(

    I love cocktails too, but not too many! lol

    I'm a big Jameson fan :)  My go-to is Jameson with ginger ale, but otherwise I'm pinot grigio all the way. Haaate beer!

    No options for champagne or "other" (or to choose more than one drink)?

    I drink champagne, cocktails, single malt whiskies and rum. I do not do beer, except at hippie festivals (where it's locally produced real ale).

    I drink white wine from time to time, and I love red wine which hates me, but generally I'll choose bubbly where I can.

    I'd say 8 times out of 10 I'll order a beer. Other than that it'll be wine. I'm not much for the hard liquor anymore. Too many bad mornings...

    My drink of choice is a Bloody Mary. I am very happy that I finally found a bloody mary mix that I LOVE called Irish Dog Bloody Mary Mix-it is perfectly spiced. If I can't get a bloody mary, I am perfectly happy with white wine-pinot or moscato.

    White wine! However, there's a few cocktails I love too! But lately, it's been white wine.

    It really depends on what I am in the mood for at the time and the environment that I'm in.  I like white wine, nicer beers, fruity cocktails, jack and coke, SoCo, and champange.

    Big fan of red wine, but also love a good Manhattan or anything Maker's Mark, and I pretty much salivate over a very dirty Ketel One on the rocks with gorgonzola stuffed green olives.  OMG.

    My drink of choice is cherry vodka and tonic. Plain vodka and tonic if cherry isn't available. Not sure if that counts as liquor or a cocktail.

    This is hard because it depends on my mood. My go-to drink is a gin and tonic, especially when the weather is warm. A good old-fashioned margarita (no sweet and sour) hits the spot too. When it's cold outside, I prefer red wine or a strong hoppy beer...and champagne when I really feel like celebrating!

    White wine and/or sparkling white wine. I hate beer, and I can only have 1 or 2 mixed drinks without getting sick.

    @Lolasmomma: I like champagne to celebrate something special or for brunch but I am a Grey Goose or Patron kind of lady for an evening cocktail.

    I'm the least "girly" drinker I know IRL. Personal faves include whiskey/bourbon, absinthe, gin cocktails, and cocktails with egg white or vermouth. Wine is always good.

    I drink water almost exclusively, so high volume/sweet drinks will make me feel sick before they give me a buzz. I like my drinks one and done, small and mighty!

    I can't drink anything too sweet--headache city. I usually drink beer, red wine or rum and diet. But 90% of the time that's beer :P

    All of the above Smile

    I probably go for cocktails first, although I also really enjoy blueberry tea.  I'll also gladly drink wine and hiballs.  I rarely drink beer, but that's because I react to it and now I really enjoy it when I decide to have some.  I probably actually drink more wine than cocktails though, because I don't make cocktails at home very often.

    I'm too old for shots, and I'm not really a hard liquor sipper.

    Usually red wine, mostly the heavier reds.  Wine (red or white) would be my dirnk of choice and is what I will usually drink at home.  When I am not drinking wine (we live in NorCal, so good wine is everywhere) I have a vodka with soda water and a lime, or a vanilla vodka and diet coke.  I will have a beer occasionally mostly at sporting events, dive bars, etc.  And how can you pass up a margarita!  Ok, so maybe I don't descriminate against any adult beverages.  :)

    Red wine, definitely red wine, but occasionally a good beer or gin and something--I particularly like gin and cranberry ginger ale, or gin and sprite/7up.

    My brother is a mixologist, so I really like trying new and interesting cocktails. I have also been into big red wines lately (zinfandel, petit syrah, etc), but am almost always sold on a champagne cocktail.

    I guess I'm sort of a non-discriminatory drinker.

    First I hardly ever drink..currently trying to build my tolerance considering we're paying $40 per. person for an open bar & I'm usually 1 and done...lol When I do drink it's a Malibu Madras..malibu rum with oj and cranberry. Can't be too sweet though or its an instant stomach for me. Never beer or wine.

    I pretty much only drink cocktails.  I don't like beer at all and have only ever found a couple of wines that I've enjoyed, but even then I can only have a couple sips before I get tired of it.

    I'm a vodka drinker... on the rocks, martinis, vodka mixed drinks (red bull and vodka/ cranberry and vodka... ect) I guess that's hard liquor and cocktails. I also like fruity drinks, shots, after dinner liquors (but usually just Tequila Rose), wine, beer, champagne and of course cocktails of most any kind... lol vodka is my go to drink though...

    I said beer, but I feel the urge to specify, as it is an important subject in the pacific northwest: I don't drink cheap beer (like PBR), I only drink good microbrews! I prefer them on the hoppy side.

    today's favorite: Winter Hook by Red Hook Brewery.

    My order of preference is probably:

    Champagne/sparkling wine

    Cocktails (but they have to be proper cocktails; not rubbish made with cheap spirits and fruit juice mixers; they need to be made with high-quality spirits and fresh fruit; and I only drink vodka or gin cocktails, or occasionally white rum)

    White wine

    Cider

    Spirit and mixer (G&T usually)

    Beer (real ale)

     

    I used to drink lager but rarely do as it makes me bloated and gassy; occasionally I fancy one though (like a hot summer's day).

    Red wine makes me feel sick and gives me a headache

    Tequilla and sambuca turn my stomach, and I'm not a fan of dark rum or whisky either, or Cointreau, or flavoured liquors. I don't like anything sweet, like alcopops, very sweet fruit ciders, Malibu, Schnapps, etc.
