D's "skinny drink" post got me thinking, what's your favorite drink(s) to order when you go out to a bar? Mine used to always be raspberry stoli & 7up, but vodka really messes me up, so I try to stay away from too much of that these days. If I'm not in the mood for beer, I'm wondering what you ladies order to give me some ideas
I looooove Cherry Bombs. It's red bull and cherry vodka.
My favorite beer is Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale. I've only ever had it at The Pub (I know it's a chain but I don't know how big, so I don't know if you'd have one?). It tastes like beer and whiskey, but in a very good way!

I like light white whites, Sauvignon blanc or Pinot Grigio the best. For beer, I love Blue Moon. If I am drinking liquor, I normally go diet sprite & vanilla vodka
This is my favorite beer ever! I hate when bars don't have it. But have any of you Blue Moon lovers noticed if you drink too many, it makes for a nasty hangover?

They are quite filling. It must be all that wheat or something! It's worth it though.
Totally depends on my mood, time of day, season, type of place. I tend to prefer old-school drinks. I might have a dirty martini, whiskey and soda, bloody mary, Manhattan, gin & tonic, or a margarita on the rocks. Or just wine.
If you like sweeter drinks, whiskey and 7-up is a nice change from vodka. Tell them to throw in a cherry.
Beah. And more beah. In fact, we're brewing our own right now. We'll see. It's something the BF cooked up, literally.
But yeah, I almost exclusively drink beer with perhaps a vodka/tonic thrown in. During the summer, and depending on where we are I will have a mojito as well.

I believe wheat beer is unfiltered, and the extra sediment in it is what tends to cause the hangovers ... and gas, but I'm sure nobody wants to know that!
I have a few favorites, which is funny because nobody who knows me would ever call me 'a drinker'!
Beer has to be Guiness (or an equivalent porter/stout). I make an exception to my dark beer rule for Corona with Citron, which tastes just like Corona with a lime but makes you much drunker much faster. Mixed drinks I like are dirty vodka martinis or mojitos (depending on the place).

I like old man drinks: gin and tonic, dirty martinis (extra olives!) and margartitas, but only outside, and I prefer them on the rocks. And not made with margarita mix.
This won't help you, but you know that already--I like vodka and cranberry or vodka tonics--but they go down like water so they're dangerous for me! If I want something light and sweet I'll have a Malibu with pineapple and cranberry. No beer for me, yuk!
It all depends on where I'm at if it's a wine place I really like Pinot Gris or Pinot Grigio With dinner I like a Dirty martini if I'm just drinking I love love whiskey Makers Mark neet.

sounds like me! i can't stand the smell of beer, much less the taste! although i will drink raspberry smirnoff ice or bacardi O3. haven't found a wine i really care for, either. when out on the town, which is rare, i order whatever sounds good and is sweet tasting, usually a cosmo, a malibu or a sex on the beach. i don't drink much.

Beer of any kind is the worst hangover! That being said, I love it. I went through a Stella Artois stage, but right now I'm staying away from it after my disasterous NYE where I had 5 beers and champagne on an empty stomach.
If I am drinking liquor, I usually choose a flavored Vodka with either soda or sprite. The less pigment and the better quality the vodka, the lesser the chance for a big hangover. Pragmatic, I know.

I love wine. I tend to drink Pinot Grigio when I go out (I actually like red wine better, but because it stains my lips and teeth I don't drink it often when in public). As for beer, I also love Blue Moon, and I also like Stella and Amstel Light. I'm not a huge fan of hard liquor, but I will occasionally drink vodka tonics.
