What's your favorite drink?

[olstyn]

Non alcoholic, probably grapefruit juice, with raspberry lemonade coming in a close second. I don't drink much soda. (Yes, I realize I'm odd.)

Beer, there are so many good ones - Big Sky Moose Drool, Guinness, Spaten Optimator, Surly Furious, the list goes on. (Can you tell I like them dark?)

As far as mixed drinks go, I'm very partial to vodka tonics, preferably made with Grey Goose, Chopin, or similar/even better vodkas. There's just no good reason to buy cheap stuff. Ice 1/3 of the way up the glass, vodka a little higher than the ice, squeeze in 1/4 of a lemon and 1/2 of a lime, fill with tonic, stir, yum.

Something a friend of mine came up with that we called a "blue boot to the head" (usually shortened to just "blue boot") is also very good - 1/2 rum, 1/4 blue curacao, 1/4 lime juice. We always used to make them in pint glasses back when we drank a lot - it really only took a very few of those to get you as drunk as you cared to be, plus they were tasty.

If we're doing shots, I've got a special place in my heart for something called a "Dead Nazi." It's 1/2 Rumpleminze and 1/2 Jaegermeister. Deliciously minty and highly potent.
