    ok.. one for the real men!

    The Old fashioned:

    Take a Large whiskey glass,
    Add 1 icecube,
    Add 1 large spoon of Demarera sugar, or a healthy dash of Gomme syrup.
    Add 2 drops of Angostura bitters,
    Add 1/3 shot of bourbon ( I insist on Woodford reserve. its AMAZING! but Makers mark will do nearly as good,
    STIR!!! STIR like you never stirred before!!
    Add a little more ice,
    A little more bourbon,
    STIR!
    Taste,
    Add Angostura to taste,
    Add ice,
    Add bourbon,
    Add Gomme (if you didnt use Demarera)
    Add bourbon
    STIR!
    Squeeze the zest of a fresh cut orange peel onto the surface of the drink, flame the zest, rub on the rim of the glass and add as Garnish.
    Add a chrery, or a very small dash of cherry jus and give one last spin.

    You should end up with a drink that is sweet, sour, strong, subtle and guaranteed to leave you a dribbling mess after your 5th one =)

    Pint Glass,
    Half of Guinness
    Morgans and coke on the top
    Ice optional ...
    Refreshing, warms the cockles and replaces essential minerals at the same time as putting a "head" on you ... magic.

    You could pretend you were American: triple the quantity of gin, throw away the ice, add some sort of disgusting vegetable to the glass and call it a martini, if that makes you feel any better!

    I never really liked cocktails or mixed drinks even.

    This thread mostly reminds me of the Kids in the Hall sketch "Girl Drink Drunk".

    Still not tried the G&T with cucumber ?

    Sounds as though you could spare a little to find out?

    Quite! The only vegatables that should be used in cocktails are celery to adorn a Bloody Mary.

    [Pedant] Hate to be a bore but cucumbers are fruits not vegetables [/Pedant]

    Having cleared that up though, if you're tempted to try cucumber in a G&T, I would fully recommend using Hendricks. A bit out of the ordinary and jolly nice for a change, but IMO you can't beat a basic G&T with lemon.

    The FBI.

    One measure each of Kahlua, Vodka and Baileys in a blender with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a splash of milk to let it down.

    You end up with a smooth Baileys milkshake

    The 'DonDaddyD'.

    Take the juice of two scalps and add to a large measure of awesome in a cocktail shaker. Place shaker in a bottle cage and agitate by riding at 30+mph past the Embankment peloton. Whilst riding no-handed, decant and add a dash of awesome sauce, some crushed ice and an olive. Consume whilst cruising through the lights, just as they turn red, leaving the fast receding peloton looking on in envy...

    In honour of DDD, because I don't have time to write him any poetry. He'll know what I mean..

    Must admit that I am a Gibson fan:

    1 part Vermouth to 3 parts gin with a cocktail onion - stirred not shaken. Essentially a Martini, but a Martinin would have an olive.

    And the usuals: White/Black Russian

    Must be a Romeo Y Julietta Churchill cigar or a Robusto to adequately set off the drink.

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    don't know if that count as a cocktail but Red Wine with Orange Fanta.

    the cheapest bottle of red wine and a bottle of Orange Fanta (or orange juice). 40/60 mix.

    I was pondering a quick poll as to whether lime (my preference) or lemon is the choice of the forum g&ters

    Lime for me!

    Actually, frankly, my choice would be 'a different drink'.
