Gin and tonic. Crisp refreshing and never gives me a hangover. Its def a summer cocktail and feels a bit odd drinking in the chicago winters but still love them year round. Ill occasionally do martinis but g&t is my sig drink. I notice gin is a love it or hate it kinda drink

Johnny Walker Black, straight up. Simple and pretty universal (ie. lots of bars tend to carry it, regardless of where you are in the world), and people can't fuck it up. For every fantastic bartender, there are 2 or 3 who can't even make a Rum and Coke well.
As much as I love my staple, there's something to be said for drinking what is local/good/what everyone else is drinking. Examples:
If I'm at the Kentucky Derby, I'll drink Mint Juleps. I'm not a particularly big fan of them all the time, but there's something about the South in the spring that the drink just fits in.
If I'm at Henley and the sun is out (something extremely rare, in my experience), there is nothing better than a Pimms. If it's raining Henley is not nearly as fun. Henley can be a wild time and the liquor starts flowing at 10 AM. Pimms for whatever reason is fantastic there, I haven't found a good Pimms cup anywhere else.
The south of France I love to drink the wine there, even €5 house wine at most places tends to be not bad. It's something about the atmosphere and being there that it is just fantastic. Also, the pairings with the cuisine are perfect.
Everywhere has their domestic/local drink of choice. You can have whatever you want in your local dive, but if you're traveling, or even going to a different bar in your hometown that has specialty, try something new. You'll be surprised.
I am the same way. However, I have one Mint Julep a year. Thats all I need to remind me of how bad they are (lol). I had some of the best wine in my life from a bottle with no label while I was in Sicily. I had some of the most toxic alcohol of my life in Japan and Korea (soju, anyone?)
When in Rome...

I go the old cowboy route and generally stick to the whiskey family (whiskey, bourbon, scotch) when I'm at my regular bar and in on-lock status when the two popular bartenders I know are there....
...I read that. As someone who usually goes that route when I'm out it was absolutely spot-on.
I appreciate that my man! Glad to see other whiskey enthusiasts in these parts. Whats the bourbon selection like in your area? Do you have access to a wide variety or is it the standard Woodford/Makers scene?

As a bourbon lover, I find it hard to get into scotch. Any suggestions?
What's Your Signature Drink? - Farmageddon - 06-23-2014
My standards: Johnny Walker Black with a splash of soda. Or an "Alcatraz" - Jameson 'on the rock' (with one ice cube).
At a nice dinner: Old scotch with a splash of soda.
Or if they have it, Pappy Van Winkle with one ice cube.
Seasonal:
In the summer, sometimes I'll get a Singapore Sling with a side of Mezcal. (hat-tip Hunter S. Thompson)
If it's cold out I like a Negroni, but only if my homeboy Mauricio is making it.
I have to say, the older I get, the less I am enjoying drinking and I am having soda water with a lime more often than not.

Vodka on the rocks
What's Your Signature Drink? - Snowplow - 06-23-2014
Vodka tonic or Moscow mule if I'm really thirsty.
I call it a gold rush (rye, lemon, and honey) or an Old fashion if I'm relaxing
And Coors for everything in between. I'm really simple about beer. Cheap and domestic makes me happy, unless its a PBR
What's Your Signature Drink? - Santoro - 06-23-2014
Vodka sodas or vodka shots.
Summertime, gatorade and vodka is a winner (Thanks McQ). Got down on that extensively for 3-day festivals this year and it was the first time I was able to ride out all 3 days getting sloshed as hell and still feel great come monday
What's Your Signature Drink? - The Reactionary Tree - 06-23-2014
Walker Blue or Gin & Tonic.
I am more of a beer guy though. My favorite beer is Franziskaner Weissbier.
What's Your Signature Drink? - Christian McQueen - 06-23-2014
Vodka (Ketel One or Goose) and tonic.
2 limes.

Glenfiddich 12 is my go-to scotch for my home spirit. You have good taste.
I keep a bottle of rye at home. Have you noticed any difference in brands? Jim Beam has served me well so I'm wondering if there are any others that might be better.
For Ryes either of the two I mentioned above are excellent. Both are inexpensive at 40 or less a bottle and the Wild Turkey is common enough to find at most liquor stores although not many bars carry their Rye.
Rye 1 or Bulleit make decent substitutes if you're at the bars.
I've also hear good things about Mitcher's from people I whose opinons' I respect. I may have tried it as well, but can't recall at the moment...
How's the Beam Rye? I haven't had a chance to try it.

Espresso White Russian.
Espresso, cream, vodka, khalua

Between the cost of drinks and the po pos chasing tipsy drivers, I hardly drink when I go out. Booze money is best saved for greasing staff and boozing up your dates. Or go after the chicks with tables

...DVY gave me the great idea of sushi and sake for first dates. Based on alcohol content, sake is half the price of mixed drinks, and the sushi gives you plausible deniability, while also being low in calories for maximum alcohol impact. Two little pitchers of sake, $20, 20 oz, goes down easy, with a roll or two of sushi. Bitches love sushi.
What's Your Signature Drink? - big poppa - 06-24-2014
Cuba Libre and Whisky Sour.. But I'll usually just have scotch with a couple ice cubes.
Edit: can't forget the White Russian
What's Your Signature Drink? - speakeasy - 06-24-2014
I've never tried a Moscow Mule, do most American bartenders know how to make them? I looked it up and it says the mixer is ginger beer(which I absolutely love btw). I don't think most bars carry ginger beer, do they substitute with ginger ale?
Also, how do you guys fare mixing liquor and beer? Sometimes it gives me an upset stomach and I have to sip really slow. I don't know why, but even drinking just two beers makes my stomach feel full and nasty.

Right now I'm in Beer City USA (2 years running), microbrews everywhere...and I'm a big fan of good beer, so that's pretty much what I order.
I don't get too fancy...perhaps I should take some advice from Donald Sterling:

The quote perfectly summarizes why I drink. It's not to get drunk it's because it's enjoyable. I find drunkeness a distasteful side effect.

Ha dammit...yeah Roger Sterling...I almost looked that up to make sure i had the name right
