Do like a glass of Merlot, but planning to down a few bottles of ice cold Fosters with our BBQ this evening. Forgot to lift the Ubu out of the shed so it's a bit warm even for bitter!!

Cheers

I do like a Mackeson shandy on a hot day "looks good, tastes good and, by golly, it does you good." as the saying goes:)
but at the moment we seem to be drinking foster radlers

I think my late Grandma used to drink an odd glass of Mackeson, is it beer?:shrug:

Could you explain the difference between long island ice tea and iced tea as we know it in England. the spiced rum, diet coke and lime sounds nice sounds very Jamaican:Yes:

Uncle Peter 13-07-2013 17:05

A fine Pinotage or Rioja

It's a Milk stout a bit like Guinness but sweeter, not as bitter

I was expecting PISCES to drink Cristal Champagne with a Str'ORB'erry in it.

I like extra strong pimms with a splash of gin in with the full works and ice. Mojitos, frozen margaritas or just an ice cold beer. But 9/10 just a cup of tea.

Nothing like sharing a bottle of cooperation pop around between good mates whilst taking 5 from playing footy in the park on a long hot summers day... Oh but oh... the simple pleasures of one's childhood.

These days, I often drink a nice warm glass of my own urine!














:D

Long Gin and Tonic over ice with a slice of Lime. Bliss.

Re: Top ten summer drinks
 
Citron presse - fresh lemon juice in ice cold water, sparkling if wished. Wierdos add sugar. Used to get this in cafes in France and always thought pubs here should serve it. Probably make a killing, lost cost and can charge a good price.

progers 08-08-2013 16:40

Re: Top ten summer drinks
 
No wine drinkers?

A nice glass of chilled Chablis or Sauvignon Blanc or actually any wine.

Cool beer, lager, Bulmers apple or pear cider, glass of scotch on the rocks, G&T&I&L, Vodka on the rocks, sherry on the rocks, lemonade, Dr Pepper zero

Re: Top ten summer drinks
 
Actually now you mention it, a nice chilled white wine is wonderful on a summers evening.
