But yes, it is quite strong <with not just the effects of the alcohol> so it's more of a sipper... 

Indeed. There are many excellent beers, liquors, and mixed drinks out there, but Chartreuse Green and Tonic is my drink of choice (though I only have it sparingly due to the cost of Chartreuse). I've never tried the V.E.P. and doubt I can get it here in Washington (blasted state liquor stores), but perhaps I'll have to pull some connections back in Michigan and see what I can do.

I'm mostly a girly drink type of guy (don't like beer or wine) and recently discovered whipped cream vodka. A couple ounces of that then fill an old fashioned glass with orange soda and it's a creamsicle with a kick. I also like White Russians, vanilla vodka with Pepsi, and stuff like that.

I'm mostly a beer guy but on ocassion do enjoy a Vodka Seven or a Rum and Coke if it's made with premium grade liquor. I also do enjoy a good single malt like Macallans, Oban, or Bowmore just to name a few. Once in a while after a good meal or on a cold wintery day, I enjoy a cup of Irish Coffee made with Bushmills Irish Whiskey.

Seagram's Sweet Tea Vodka and Minute Maid Lemonade.  It's like an Arnold Palmer.

Absinthe, green fairy optional LoL, tried it years ago when on holiday in New Orleans at the Old Absinthe Bar in Bourbon street, they serve you a measure of absinthe in a strange shaped glass, then place a sugar cube on a weird metal spoon.

Ice cold water is poured over the sugar and it dissolves into the (green) absinthe which then turns cloudy white, very tasty, extremely potent.

Nice sauvignon blanc/pinot noir/alsatian or german wines, and lots more, the list goes on! :)   My favorite US pinot noir is Navarro from Mendocino, though Melville from the Central Coast is great too (not only their pinot noir but also their Chardonnay INOX)....

 

Speaking of which, I have two bottles of 1979 Chateau Lafite Rothschild (or 1978 - I have to double-check) which I'd be willing to swap for some equivalent value headphone gear (is that appropriate to post here?).  I was shocked at how much they're going for when I googled them.   Have lots of 1988 Bourgognes too - but since I don't imbibe like I used to, I just stare at the bottles and drool...
