Cocktail thread?

Screwdriver. Boring but classic.

>>8809350
If it's warm out, a Tom Collins might do nicely. Otherwise, you could go with any number of juice combinations. If you feel fancy, try making an Ace cocktail.

Gin & Lemon.

Gin Rickey
Screwdriver
Vodka and Cranberry
Gin and Tonic

There's a number of really simple drinks you can do with stuff you probably have on hand.

>>8809350
I'd go with gin and tonic with cucumber instead of lime.

>>8809350

Gimlet
5cl gin
3cl fresh lime juice
2cl syrup

Wait, you cannot buy alcohol all weekend?

>>8809451
Why anyone willingly drinks tonic water outside regions rife with malaria I will never understand.

>>8809683
They've surpassed the age of 19.

Tonic water tastes good imo. Dat quinine.

>>8809683
it's a soda that's not disgustingly sweet but actually tart and bitter
fresh lemonade is still better obviously

>>8809696
more like surpassed the age of 70

>>8809696
>>8809708
Quinine is exactly the problem. Tastes like the chemically aftertaste of cough syrup, minus the artificial cherry crap. It's an improvement, but it still tastes like chewing up an aspirin.

>>8809683
I like the taste when mixed with gin. I'm fine with club soda though.

Think I'll pick some up tonight as it's finally not raining for the first time in six months.

>>8809661
What the fuck is a cl?
Cubic litre?

>>8809907

centiliter. 1/100 of a liter, or 10 mL

Even my Amerikkan Edukashun was enough to learn that....

>>8809672
Not before saturday no. Closed all easter

>>8809927

You mean like the whole week? Not just Easter Sunday?

>>8809350
What the fuck, where are you from?

>>8809683
I love that shit. I put in lime and lemon juice, toss in a dash of orange bitters, even without alcohol.

>>8809350
Where are you from OP?

I've been sober for almost 10 weeks now and shooting for 12, I'll be damned if i don't get cravings for cocktails, particularly moscow mules and drinking the OP's image

What's seekay drinking tonight? Pic related: I recently got some creme de cacao, so for me it's the Pago Pago.

A bit of variation here, though; I made mine with an overproof rum, and I didn't have anything on hand to garnish it with.

>MFW i see the state of my lack of barware.


I bought a 750ml bottle of suntory toki for $29 out the door, a handle of Don Q for $25, and my memorial for the old timers that aint around on easter bottle of evan Williams for $15,

come home notice all my glasses are fucked up or gone.

using a FUDD gunshop rifle cup for the toast. which would probably make the old timers happier than if i used a highball glass.

>>8813940
i really would like to try that

this is why i like /ck/ sometimes. people know shit i dont, and drop wisdom or at least links to new and interesting things.

Got big into tiki last winter
On a whim googled to see if there was a tiki bar in my town, was a good respite from the cold and dark

>>8813903
A trip to the nearest dumpster.

>>8814024
B-but i like the taste.

>>8814083

>>8813940
i had one of these the other day. wasn't worth the $12 for a normal sized bottle. i'd rather have a 750ml bottle of allagash curieux or something for just slightly more money. the guy working at my beer store told me to get one the day they put it on shelf because it would be gone the next day. i dont understand the hype when there are so many other barrel aged stouts available. am i wrong?

>>8814337
>$12 for a bottle

You got ripped off son, I paid $27 today for a four pack and I thought even that much was kind of steep when some people online say they got it for $20. It's as good as people say it is though

>>8809350
>What should I make?
Mix the two together and drink that.

Or just leave america.

>>8809661
Gimlets, when will they ever learn

>>8809714
Get good tonic water and it wont taste like shit

Any good Rum cocktails you guys would recommend?
I've made a cocktail called Jamaican Fizz which i found to be good:
In a shaker half filled with ice
>2.5 ounces dark rum
>1.5 ounces of pineapple juice
>1tsp superfine sugar
shake and strain into a collins glass and pour 4 ounces of club soda/carbonated water and stir

>>8809350
gin&tonic is the obvious choice with the gin. not sure about the vodka, i rarely make or drink cocktails. screwdriver used to work well but haven't had one of those in years

>>8809696
>>8809683
honestly, i dislike gin and i dislike tonic but together (especially with cucumber) it is really good

By the way, you'd think a silicone ice tray for "crushed" ice like this one would be a good idea.
Let me tell you they are an absolute bitch to empty.

Don't bother unless you actually own one of these and are thus fully qualified to respond.

Actually, ignore me. Simply let the tray out there for approximately as long as it takes to take a picture, whine and bitch about it on /ck/, then roll the entire contents cleanly from the tray into this enhanced-contrast ice bowl.

Prost, /ck/.

How do I make a perfect rum and coke and whats the best rum for my coke?

>>8820219
Half rum, half coke and squeeze a lime wedge then throw it in the glass to cut the sweetness. Just use cheap shit like captain Morgan. If you get sailor Jerry's try it with Dr. Pepper.

>>8820574

> cut the sweetness
