Happy Birthday!!! :smiley20: You, the prez and Nancy Reagan.
My favorite drink in a bar is Myers rum & coke.
Hey, here's something for ya, I found it in an old bartender's guide, it's a drink called a "Ward 8" is a whiskey sour with grenadine (make sure you use enough grenadine to make it RED). Now granted, a whiskey sour is something that MY parents' generation used to drink (my mother and father were born in the early 1920's) are are rarely ordered in bars nowadays. When my friends and I first started drinking in bars, we used to like to see if the bartenders even knew what a Ward 8 was and very few of them did.
Happy Birthday youth
I'm either drinking beer or Rum and Coke..........
whatever ya drink...... don't drive and have a great time
Oh - since it's still your misspent youth phase and it is now LEGAL to drink, you gotta get the best bang for your buck... I'd suggest a Long Island Iced Tea - 1 shot each of Rum, Gin, Vodka, Triple Sec, Tequila with a splash of sweet and sour, and a bit of coke for coloring. Whatever you do, DO NOT DRIVE after you finish one!!! And do NOT drink any more than three if you don't want to feel the room spin and pray to the porcelin God!!!!
have the bartender make you an irish carbomb.

they have some awsome drink recipies (sp?)

Some Ideas from my friend Drew at Toothpaste for Dinner

Not sure how they taste, but let's say they sound "interesting"... All in good humor anyways...
If you have a Wet Willie's (A Bar, A Party, an Institution) in town, go there and have a few drinks, then call a cab... :smiley37:
Happy 21st brother! I suggest getting completely plastered as that's the tradition where I come from. lol Any tequila, cheap gin or vodka will do. :smiley36:
Now, if you want to go the more mature route and not get plastered and just have a nice drink, I'd go with the Knob Creek. Very affordable and goes great with cigars IMO.
Happy B-Day.
Whiskey sour is my choice. :smiley20:
Happy Birthday !
I don't remember my 18th (Drinking/Smoking age is 18 up here) so it must've been good !
Have a great time and hope you don't wake up in an embarassing place.
I was down in Miami this weekend (holiday business trips rock) and had a couple of Mojito's. I make them better myself. Got to use a lot of Lime!!!Quote:

i'll have to try that one, looks like my wife might enjoy it.
Don't even dream of drinking more than three LIITs AND DEFINITELY DON'T DRIVE AT ALL. Even after one.
When I first heard of Long Island Ice Teas I couldn't believe that a drink made up of so much booze could taste decent. Amazingly, they taste fantastic, but they will kill you. Kill, kill, kill, kill. They are totally unforgiving. Respect them and the number of them that you drink or you will certainly regret it the next day more than you could ever imagine.
But why kill yourself? You like Jack Daniels? Drink Gentleman Jack, a more refined version of Jack Daniels.
Ahhhhh....but I forget.....your at the magic number. You're legal. You want to get hammered. Don't you :smiley15:
There is no telling you anything at this moment I guess. Go ahead. Get wasted. Just promise us one thing.....be sure that you don't drive. Please. And be sure that whoever IS driving you is sober.
Happy Birthday!
i say stay away from the LIITs. i've had nothing good come from drinking those. i drank 1 beer and two LIITs, i don't remember anything. i was told i made a complete a$$ of myself in front of a beautiful girl that liked me before that night. then, i tried to get into my neighbor's house. which could've ended really bad if he had thought i was a burglar or something. i'd suggest sticking to something a little more controllable. try that one when you're not trying to get smashed. because if you drink those to get smashed, you'll end up way worse off than you intended. just my suggestion.
gentleman's jack is VERY yummy. :smiley20:
Hey, Happy Birthday! I'm with Crickett on this one...go for a wellmade Mojito. Great summer drink, packs a good punch too! And round out the evening with a nice single malt and a smoke! :smiley20:
Pete
Hex,
Hold off on the sprite until after you blend, then gently stir it in and you'll get a bit of carbonation in the Mojito. I like to use club soda or seltzer instead of sprite, but my recipe is very similar.
Pete
Thanks hex. I will definately try it out. I've had mint lemonade but I think I like the mojito better with rum :). I'm probably going to add the sprite after blending just to preserve some fizz. It was HOT this weekend.. nothing like a good mint citrus drink to cool ya down.Quote:

Hope you have a good time (and remember it). :smiley37:
its great to drink legally, isn't it. though i didn't get carded my first couple times out (kind of disappointed). at least until i shaved the beard off. hope you're having fun!
Yes! "Freedom" beer is great stuff. The first place I got carded yesterday, besides the liquor store, was at Hooters. The waitress saw that it was my birthday, and of course they pull me up and start singing their annoying birthday song. Too bad none of them gave me any birthday lovin'. lolQuote:

Haha, amen brother. One of them has been um...."very generous" to my roommate if you get what I'm saying. lol I went to high school with a few that work there, so I've seen the goods, haha.Quote:

Didn't stop me, I kept buying and never got carded. Ever. Then one day I was buying beer at a stop and go, and I'm 27 and the lady carded me. Go figure.
so how was the bday?
Pretty good, still drinking, lol.Quote:

I remember running into this girls mom too. My roommate has um.....had "relations" with the daughter. So we run into the mom, and I am out of it, and apparently in mid conversation I go, "hey, Mike(my roommate) f***ed your daughter. It was hilarious. Anyways, just thought I would tell you guys about it.
-Mike
Ok - so was it the Long Island Iced Tea that did you in??? Enquiring minds gotta know!!!
And tell us about the chicks!!! There has to be stories about the chicks when you've been drinking!!! :smiley36:
Actually, on the night of the 4th I had to work around the time of the fireworks display. Afterwards, myself and a couple of others decided to go out for a drink or two to discuss the days events. The owner of a local pizza place, his wife and one of their younger female workers joined us. I am of the mind that I cannot afford to drink and drive, so I tend to nurse a beer the entire evening so I don't have to worry about calling my wife to pick me up at a sleeze bar at 4 am...
Anyways, I'm nursing my beer and the younger female worker decides it's time for Yaeger Bombs. Those can be particularly nasty because they'll sneak up on you if you're not careful... I know that, but apparently she didn't. She orders one after another. Thankfully, it had been established before she ever step foot in the bar that she was not going to drive.
Ms. Younger Female Worker is hitting the Yaeger Bombs to the tune of about 8 in an hour. BAD MOVE. I believe the last thing that SHE remembers was asking someone to do a drunk test on here because she didn't think she was drunk. Shortly afterwards, I was asking the hostess if we could get a harness to hold her in her chair.
Within about 1 1/2 hours of arriving, the youg lady had puked at our table, all over the two woman's bathrooms in the place, and all over the entrance steps. And the last thing I heard her say was, "I don't want to die like this!!!".
Ahhh... Youth and alcohol.... Thank God those are a distant memory for me!!!
Yeah, I just remember falling on the side walk in front of a cop. I just layed there, and my roommate said get up and I replied, "if I don't move he won't see me." lol I was wearing a bright yellow shirt and red plaid shorts, you couldn't have missed me, haha. I didn't try any fancy drinks last night, just beer and shots people bought me. Mostly Jack Daniels, it's my favorite. As far as the chick stories go, I could probably get kicked off the board for discussing that stuff, lol.
I remember talking to some guy about malcom x and w.e.b. Dubois too, don't ask. I ran into an old high school flame too, "the one that got away" ya know.
-Mike
I'll be having a few of those here in about a week, having a small lil get together/party :smiley20:Quote:
