Because I was dared.
And because we also need a place to talk about and share intel on quality booze like Pepsi and bourbon.

Knob Creek bourbon. @ixokai turned me onto it a couple years ago. I think of him every time I drink some.

Well, if you're going to waste soda and booze on some unholy mixture; good on you for going with Pepsi and bourbon instead of anything worth drinking.

Look, you're allowed to be wrong.

So I dont drink anymore really, but I'll talk about my 'pot'ent 'pot'able...pot. The Devils Lettuce. Right now i am trying a new brand called Elyion or something like that and it comes in these futuristic smell proof containers in black and gold that look like they were manufactured by the illuminati.
The Orange Krush is a really nice sativa that gets me going in the morning, pairs well with caffeine. The SFV OG hybrid is potent but kinda meh, I wont be buying again, but that's sort of an anytime weed. I am however currently in love with this strain called Lava Cake, It's makes me incredibly giggly. Every strain is super high potency, in the high 20%'s the quality incredible, the smell potent but unnoticeable with the container closed.
Alas my supply is com9ing to a close, and I am stopping for a while... because I got a job, for the first time in 13 years... so woo!
To Cannabis, the thing that finally helped me get over my mental illness enough to seek treatment for said mental illness... now I am medicated, progressing, and cutting back on my very very favorite vice.
I am in fact incredibly high right now and am oversharing and rambling so.. um.. goodnight!

Beefeater gin and schweppes tonic. I am a lady of simple tastes.
ETA: Delicious cocktails off the top of my head include...
The B-52
The Old Fashioned
The Sazerac
The Orgasm (dangerously delicious)
The Screaming Orgasm (much stronger than its mute counterpart but less delicious and therefore, ironically, somewhat safer)
The White RussianBold drinks are official IBA cocktails and every bartender should know them. The White Russian isn't official but the Black Russian is, so any bartender worth her salt should be familiar with it.

You could probably swap the Southern Comfort with Nyquil and no one would notice the difference

Oh, these are so very good. I highly recommend.

@Darren Not really. SoCo goes really well with coke. The sweetness just goes nicely. That being said drinking half a bottle is very easy to do.

I'm a rum and coke guy, but not am expensive alcohol guy so Bacardi Oakheart has been my go-to

How to Alcohol, in 2 Easy Steps:
-
Keep Irish whiskey in the freezer. I like a 15 year Redbreast, but Jameson will treat you right too.
-
Drink when thirsty.
-
-
I don't drink alcohol. I only smoke. What? I'll let you guess.
It has helped A LOT with making me a less anxious person to be around.

I got hooked on a Jack Daniels kick for September and October, I went through five bottles in four one week periods, every other week. In November I sampled Laird and Company Applejack, an apple brandy with a whiskey kicker that ran me five bucks less than a bottle of Jack Daniels.
I don't go by the handle anymore, I pick up the standard fifth, but I stopped mixing and chasing, aside from the novelty of buying a huge iron drum of Dole pineapple juice for the applejack. While pleasant, I admittedly regret using a mix. Straight shots are my new preference, I can't stomach malt or beer or wine cooler.
Could I ever?

Also a fan, as I'm a vodka drinker (must be the slav in me; in related news, Russian Standard is a nice balance of price to quality) but do occasionally prefer to temper my distilled misery with something more flavorful. Substitute Irish cream for even more yum (evidently a Blind Russian, never knew the official name). A fun party trick is that either variety can be pretty cleanly layered.
