Sho Nuff 719 Posted June 17, 2018 Four Roses tonight. Decided to give the Small Batch a try as I am not a fan of the single barrel. Its decent for the price (and was a few bucks on sale) but wont get me away from Basil Hayden as a regular purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sho Nuff 719 Posted June 17, 2018 We were always held to the McMuffin rule. If McDonalds is still serving breakfast, you cant start drinking yet. Notice that says start drinking. If you are still drinking uninterrupted by sleep from the night before, carry on. They serve breakfast all day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,207 Posted June 23, 2018 Hey Im new to sangria dammit! Never liked wine, trying to get into more things! Sangria is good but a little sweet. Not sure what is in a Singapore Sling but it sounds like a chick drink. Only 4:40 here so no drinking yet. Soon though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bier Meister 1,514 Posted June 23, 2018 i make a simple syrup with the fruit. this is my basic red, but i used different fruit based on the flavor profile of the wines i use... 1 lime 1 lemon 1 orange 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup water 1 bottle of wine 1-2 cups club soda or sprite 2 tbs of brandy.... i use a blackberry brandy for red, apricot for white cut fruit into 1/4 inch slices. place the ends in a sauce pot. set aside other slices. add water and sugar to sauce pot. bring to boil. stir until it dissolves.... remove from heat and cool. squeeze juice from ends back into the pot and discard ends. in a pitcher add fruit slices, wine, syrup, club soda, brandy...serve over ice..... example of other variations: used riesling and champagne as the wine.... stone fruit simple syrup sauv blanc... stay citrus. throw in some blood orange syrah, malbec.... blueberry granache... raspberry, strawberry etc of a simpler version..... wine, sprite or club soda, fruit, brandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted June 24, 2018 Wine is fine but whiskey's quicker. There was a Chicago news anchor years back that focked up on air. He was the affable white old guy. There was some story about candy from another anchor. When the camera angle widens to show all the anchors he says, Well you know what they say, candy is dandy but liquor is quicker. The other anchors look at him like wtf??? After going immediately to commercial they came back and apologized, reminding everyone that this is a family program. This was before the YouTube so I don't think I can find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted July 6, 2018 Apparently my soon to be brothers in law feel it is a necessary tradition to get me drunk this evening. So we have lots of red horse (6.4 percent beer) and a bottle of local hooch made from coconuts. This could get ugly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
