4Well, Dark, if you're serving cocktails I hope you plan to occasionally invite all your friends here at UCforums over to join you and your lovely wife (I'm sure she is lovely) in enjoying those exotic drinks you concoct.
Just let us know when!
(BTW, I prefer margaritas made with Milagro Reposado Tequila. )

5I'm a big Tequila fan (although I have to avoid the stuff ).
It's hard to find a good mixer for tequila, but a couple summers ago I stumbled across a good one; Capri Sun brand juice bags- specifically, Tropical Morning (careful, there are several labeled "tropical this, tropical that").
Fill tall glass with ice add desired amount of tequila and top it off with this juice.
WARNING!- It goes down like lemonade on a hot day.
I was once a bartender so I can assure you that the names of certain drinks don't always follow the same recipes.

6Well, on a perfect cocktail party, I'd like to be served a big keg of guinness, and a drinking horn to drink it from.

Darlak, my friend, we are talking cocktails here, COCKTAILS.
But, on the happy chance that Dark decides to also serve beer, I am very partial to Dos Equis [Amber]...and yes, I like pilsners, or as a friend of mine describes them: hoppy beers.....And they do indeed make me "hoppy".

9Given the choice I'd be sitting with Darlak.
Guiness rules over any cocktail and any beer.
Love that stuff!

10I had this one on one of my travels in mexico - it isn't really a cocktail but it was really good:
2 shots vodka
3 slices of cucumber
3 mint leaves
club soda
Lime
mixed in a regular 8oz glass
Soooooo good....

13Hi Guys,
This week i'm gonna to the store and buy some boose to make wonderful cocktails because it's my favorite drink.
Hammer horror. One part vodka, one part kalua (coffee liqieur) 4 tablespoons vanilla ice cream. This shake in a cocktail cup with ice cubes. Pour into a glass triangle, or another large decorative glass. Sprinkle grated chocolate to aftemaken about. That is, take it from me, success is guaranteed. Enjoy and if you try it out please let me know something.
Cheers.

Re: Cocktails...
14That does sound pretty delicious dark.
Oh and I dunno if it counts as a cocktail, but 50-50 galliano and coffe with cream and cinnamon on top is fantastic.
Shame the local barkeeper hardly ever sell it, he claims it's too much work lol...

Re: Cocktails...
15Hey Darlak if i was the local barkeeper i make lots of impressive cocktails you know.
Here in Belgium we have 3 kinds of special coffees.
1)Irisch coffee that's coffee with wishkey and whipped cream.
2) French coffee that's coffee with cognac and whipped cream.
3) Hasseltse coffee that's coffee with jenever and whipped cream.
There all 3 delicious but i prefer the french coffee.
There's more good drinks & good food than good work you know.
Do you know what kind of work is most beautiful ?
Firework,I can watch it for hours you know lol.

Re: Cocktails...
16Dark, here is a good one. Its called a hurricane because it will flatten you if youre not careful. It goes down really easy.
Hurricane
1 oz white Rum
1 oz Jamaican Dark Rum
1 oz Bacardi 151 rum (Good stuff!)
3 oz Orange Juice
3 oz Unsweetened Pineapple Juice
1/2 oz Grenadine syrup
Crushed Ice
Combine all ingredients, mix well (shake or stir).
Pour over crushed ice in a hurricane glass (I have no idea what a "hurricane glass" is.)
Garnish with fruit wedge if desired
