Depends on the time of year and what mood I'm in.

Summer months I like some gin and 7 with a squeeze of lemon since I find it a light, refreshing drink.

During the rest of the year I tend to drink run/coke with a squeeze of lemon or lime or vodka and cranberry.

Many Sunday's I will make my Bloody Mary mix and have a few of them.

My brother-in-law is high up for a major liquor company and turned me onto Mezcal because I always get bad hangovers.

shite has been like magic. I’ll drink it all night and feel great the next day. Of course he gave me a bottle of some of their best stuff but still.

Love the smoky flavor.

A well-made ranch water in the summer is the GOAT. They are too good. Goes down like water

too many good ones to lock it to one

want something deep and slow to sip on, hard to beat classic old fashion or gin martini

want something drinkable and refreshing, probably corpse reviver number 2 is my go to.

late night and heavy, like good white russian.

pool/beach side? i like a real margarita.

Rum and Tonic with a lemon and lime wedge is a favorite of mine during the summer. Adult sprite.

If I'm somewhere that I know makes it well, I'll go a sazerac, though lately I've been going to a spicy margarita. Clear liquor seems to be my friend as I get older. The spicier the better as it tends to slow down my consumption.

I’m not sure what your point is. Too girly for you? I haven’t had a period in over ten years, but thanks for your concern.

If I'm at a bar and wanting something "classy," I'll usually go with a sazerac.

At home:
Mezcal ranch water
Tequila ranch water
Bourbon on the rocks
Mezcal or tequila neat (beer back).
