What the (is hell on the list of no no words?) is wrong with you people? Too lazy to mix a drink? Drink mixing, like smoking, makes you look cool especially if you keep your liquors in those fancy bottles like in a Cary Grant flick.

I'm okay with mixed drinks, but I don't recall liking Gin and tonic. Maybe I'll have to give it another go.

Gin by itself- meh
Tonic by itself- gross

Together- awesome.
The key is the lime. That's the catalyst for deliciousness.

while not a mixed drink, I am drinking a Lime Cactus Michelob Ultra right now. Just bought it this afternoon --- out of curiosity. Not too bad. Anyone else like any of the newer lime beers out there (I will not touch any Miller products)?

Oh come on. Your too lazy to poor some rum into a glass of coke? Or some gin into some tonic? I don't buy it.

yes i am. first, you need ice. then you need to open two bottles. then usually one thing runs out way before the other.

with wine, you just pour it. no ice, no mixing ratios, no fruit things to put on the side.

but i like mixed drinks when someone else is doing the heavy lifting.
That's my problem, I'm always running out of bourbon way before I run out of Coke! :wink:

I'm not a big gin and tonic guy either. I still taste the tonic too much, and tonic tastes terrible to me.

I'd rather just drink a dirty martini.
