    At risk of sounding like a wine cave lib (couldn’t find the emojis), wine. It’s versatile AF, and small, independent, artisanal winemakers (many of them vinegrowers, too, a lot of the agricultural work behind wine is overlooked so much) are really cool people. It sucks that so much of the wine world has been taken over by the bourgeois and petit bourgeois, and their wannabe acolytes, and that it’s become (it kind of always has been) such a strong class marker, when it’s such a wonderful drink, and a great gateway drug to speaking about food in different ways. I very much hate people who feel superior just because they know a thing or two about wine, when it’s a thing to enjoy, like all food should be.

      Went to a cocktail bar and ordered these because the bartender there recommended it. I was having a exceptionally bad day and this guy was just serving only me and giving me on after the other. After about 4 i felt better.

      Barely any words exchanged but watching him make each one was very hypnotic and i forgot about all my problems. Since then its been my favourite drink.

      Same. I’m a huge fan of classic spirit-forward cocktails. Old-fashioned, Manhattan, martini, negroni.

    Anytime I’ve had anything with alcohol in it I’ve thought “this would probably taste good if it wasn’t for the alcohol”. I must just have baby taste buds.

      that’s your body telling you that the poison you’re ingesting is bad

      “learning to like alcohol” is mostly beating this reaction into submission

      nah, alcohol tastes bad and most drinking culture is all about brainwashing yourself to like the bad tasting thing.

      Prairie makes a colab with Evil Twin(I think) called Bible Belt that is one of the best stouts I’ve ever had. It’s boozy AF and pricy but if you haven’t tried it, seek it out.

      Living in mexico i learned that my favorite way to have rum/coke was to have half coke, half soda water, and double rum, and a bit of lime juice. SUCH A GOOD DRINK, and often i wouldn’t get hangovers because the water kept me hydrated.

          I’ve had it in countries where coke is not as good as in Mexico and it still holds up, it actually waters it down enough to make the lime/lemon pop more.
