What's your favorite warm weather beverage?
Still icy & snowy where I live...uhh, thoughts of sunny warm days & sippin' on something cool to drink. Iced tea or an extra thick chocolate milkshake would be my first & second choices. Do your beverages choices change with the weather?
Have Cointreau. Now What?
It is an unopened Christmas gift. I have a rare occasional drink and have used Triple Sec in recipes, but I understand this is stronger. If one were to drink this as an apéritif or digestif, what is the proper temperature?
I'd love some ideas or recipes, as I've never tasted or used this before. Thanks Serious Eaters!
What tastes better when you...
...drink it thru a straw? Mmm...milkshakes, of course! Even ordinary chocolate milk just tastes better consumed thru a straw. Do you drink any unusual things with straws? As a kid, did you ever have one of those crazy straws? Bendy ones are kinda fun, too, especially when you are sick! Anyone try those cereal straws?
Signature NYE Drink?
Looking for ideas for a signature New Year's Eve alcoholic drink to have for the evening at a party I'm hosting. Nothing too complex; just a simple, tasty, seasonal drink. Thanks in advance!
What are some good hot wintertime alcoholic drinks?
I've been trying to find some good creative hot drinks to serve on days like today when it's so cold out? I've made the mulled wine and hot toddies, but I'm looking for something a little more outside-the box. Anyoen have any good ideas?
The holidays are coming...what is your favorite beverage?
I go for hot chocolate on Halloween. Then Thanksgiving thru the New Year, I like the grocery store "custard-style" cartons of eggnog. Occasionally order one of those gingerbread or eggnog lattes at the coffee shop. What do you sip on during the winter holidays?
Cooler weather....warmer beverages
I like to welcome cooler weather with warmer beverages. A couple of my old standbys are hot caramel apple cider & a steaming mug of cocoa. I have friends who simmer wine beverages in crock-pots. When it starts to get nippy outside, what beverages do you drink? What Fall beverages do select in coffee shops or restaurants?
As a kid, I liked to drink______
Growing up in the 50's, my mom would make a pitcher of cherry or grape Kool-Aid when playmates came over. Lemonade was reserved for family reunion picnics. Once a year, on New Year's Eve at the stroke of midnight, we were allowed 7-Up. Milk was always poured & on the table each meal. We drank water from the garden house while playing outside. WOW---have times changed! What did you drink as a kid?
Favorite Drink
I was just reading Baking Bites, and they had a article on National Rum day, the Amateur Gourmet did a post about his favorite drink, that he got from his dad...
My favorite is a pineapple pushover...
1 oz. Vodka , 1/2 oz. Ameretto 4 oz., Pineapple Juice, 1 oz. Cream. Shake with ice and serve in a higball...
What's yours???
Question of the Day: What's your go-to summertime drink?
Interpret "drink" loosely—lemonade, gin and tonic, iced coffee or tea. What do you reach for to keep cool. (And, heck, if you have an easy recipe for it, do share!)
OMG, they make Cherry Coke Zero now!
This is like the best day ever.
