Water?

Like in the toilet?

Spread across 5 pages? Well, I'm not going to click through, but I'm going to assume that single-malt scotch mixed with Mountain Dew is somewhere in the middle.

How is tequila ranked better than carrot juice? Tequila is gross. Carrot juice is delicious.

Also, Thai iced tea should be higher.

Maybe, but It's well written.

"Guinness" lower than "Beer". List is irrational.

Which was actually the original purpose for Mountain Dew. It was designed to be a mixer and it's name is slang for moonshine.

To me, alcohol is not delicious. It makes you feel good so people associate it with deliciousness.

Maybe it's an acquired taste. I just think people overrate the tastiness of alcohol because they're used to the effect.

lol. I am sober, at the moment at least. Not fat though. Tell me you think vodka is delicious.

It's basically just ethanol. Gin, on the other hand, has a nice juniper flavor.

I happen to like the taste of rum, but yeah most booze needs a disguise. After all, why are mixed drinks so popular?

I suppose we do everything possible to make alcohol taste good, placing it in oak barrels for years at a time, flavoring it, going through huge complex processes. Don't get me wrong, I love alcohol, I think wine tastes good, I just don't find it delicious in the way that food can be.

I've given up on mixers altogether. It takes a while, but scotch or bourbon neat are delicious.

R.A.Danny: I've given up on mixers altogether. It takes a while, but scotch or bourbon neat are delicious.

I agree. I never use mixers. Mainly because they add too much sugar, ruining the drink for me.

This is about as valid as the "100 greatest guitarist" threads, just not as farking insufferable.

Maybe getting old is making us reject the syrupy stuff. I dunno, I just can't stand it mixed with alcohol anymore.

I don't know what is wrong with you guys, I love water. I gave up on soda (IT IS CALLED SODA!!) and gatorade after my last cavity. My tap water is delicious, pulled right out of the ground, no chemicals no swimming pool taste.

My top 5, I think..

1 Water
2 Beer (not bargain barf American lager)
3 Orange juice
4 tequila
5 gin

6 is maybe sangria, I dunno

Coca-Cola (United States) should be replaced with Mexican Coca-Cola

Sangria can definetely be in the top 3 if made right. Must have brandy and cinimon

So apparently Red Bull is Austrian. I guess it does go well with shrimps on the barbie, so that makes sense.

FIVE PAGES?!

Oh, I forgot. Websites need to pad their clicksthrus.
 
2011-12-09 01:49:05 PM
I'm not going through 5 pages on my slow as hell work computer.
Is Ale 8 on the list?
 
2011-12-09 01:49:22 PM
Kentucky Bourbon isn't on the list, generally or specifically (Maker's, Blanton's, etc.)

For that reason alone, this list is irredeemably broken and worthless.

Article: don't dare taint scotch with ice.

Coke? Are you f-ing kidding me?

Crap list is crap.

List is just fine without Jagermeister

A stirred Manhattan with Blanton's is pretty much nirvana for me. Stupid list is stupid.

Fruit punch? More like urine and chewable vitamin flavor.

Anytime I'm in a pub and U2 comes on the jukebox I order one of these.

This stuff is a blessing from God. I can easily drink a whole pack. If you have never tried this wonderful elixer, then get your ass down to the local asian store and buy some now. Leave work if you have to.

/How did it not make the top 10?

List fails without Pisco
 
2011-12-09 01:55:42 PM
No Horchata, no Dr Pepper, and Coke & Water make #2 & #1. List fails.

I think perhaps there are people out there who wouldn't exist if their parents hadn't had #31 one night...

I'm not a big drinker (as is about to be evidenced), but there were two drinks I had fairly recently that I absolutely love.

Kiss on the Lips
Take a blender. Fill half-full with chunks of frozen mango. Add some ice. Add a good glug of peach schnapps. Blend. Pour a splash of grenadine in a glass, pour in the mango slushy mix. Drink.

Black and Blue
In a glass, add about two shots each of blackberry and blueberry shnapps (99 Blackberries adds an extra pleasant kick, but will result in a drink that looks like dishwater). Add a shot each of cranberry juice and orange juice. Add ice and drink.

My husband makes a mean green-colored drink with Midouri, vodka, 99 Bananas, orange juice, sweet and sour, all blended together slushy-like with ice. He tried to enter it in a mixology contest on our cruise, and ended up making something completely different because they wouldn't let him put in enough Midouri.

/yes, I like pansy drinks
//Sheridans is the shiat, too.

Even when tequila tastes good, it is not "delicious".
