    I used to drink alcohol a lot before but I no longer feel fondness in drinking them now. I drink on occasions but only in moderate amounts. My fondness now goes to coffee, coffee and more coffee. The climate from where I live is typically cool so the thought of drinking a hot cup of coffee comforts me. The colder the weather, the more coffee I drink. :)

    Jack Daniels + Coke = utter heavenly sensations. It gives me a truly vintage sensation that I can't escape from, haha.

    I've tried Jack Daniels with coke a couple of times but it still doesn't beat it with just ice. The coke takes away the flavour of the Jack Daniels for me.

    I know some people that drink it neat, now I don't think I could do that, at least the ice tones it down a little bit.

    Actually my body tolerates vodka rather well, with pretty much any mix. Not that I am an appreciator, but it's a drink that goes down well.

    Everyone has his or her poison, it's important not to get lost in it. A glass of good wine won't harm anyone (unless the one has an allergy), while drinking as a habit becomes a poison itself, no matter how good quality the drinks are. The point is, everything should be balances. And if one has to spend a good portion of income on drinking and going out and then 5 days before the next payroll go for a loan to cope with the bills, it's definitely a red light mark (more on onlinepaydaycalifornia.com).

    I absolutely can't stand the taste of beer.

    Jack is great though. Prefer it with coke myself, but yeah, I'd end up going through a bottle quite quickly if I weren't careful!

    Ah yes! It's absolutely amazing!! I suggest you try 43 and vanilla coke. It's such a smooth sweet taste. Add in a bit of jack and you've got yourself a drink ;). I personally use 50:50 43:jack. Use half a shot of each.

    I'm a gin and tonic gal myself. I've got one made right now. I've just started getting into gin recently, and so far I've tried Beefeater and Bombay Sapphire. I definitely prefer the Beefeater. That being said, I'm also a lightweight so I have a one drink limit except for very rare occasions.

    Judging by the posts on here, imagine if we all met up? That bar would make a fortune off us lot that night! Beers, Remy Martin, Jack Daniels, Gin&Tonic...

    Seriously though, I think most people like a drink, and in my opinion there's nothing wrong with that in, moderation of course.

    Better yet, buy some in yourself and set up a group get together. Tend the bar yourself and you'd make an absolute mint!
