Prickly Pear Margarita

Throw a couple handfuls of ice in the blender, pulse the blender to crush it up some, add:
4 oz Teguila
3 oz triple sec
2 oz unconstituted limeade
2 oz fresh squeezed lime juice
2 oz Prickly Pear syrup
a little sugar.
Pulse the blender a couple more times and serve in a margarita glass garnished with salt.
Serves two.
Mm mm good! The wife and I think they are outstanding.
 
A beer!

It should be chilled & the cap removed when she brings it to you.

Canadian "Molson Golden" prefered, but most any brand will do in a pinch if it is iced.
 
Islay single malts -- in a brandy snifter, neat.

The classic dark & stormy; Kraken, Goslings, or Cruzan Black Strap rum with a good quality ginger ale and a slice of lime, and plenty of cracked ice.

El Jefe Margarita; Cuervo Gold, Grand Marnier or Harlequin (keeps the proof up, none of that el cheapo triple sec, and richer flavor), Rose's Lime in equal parts, shaken with cracked ice, strained into a glass rimmed with a superfine sugar/sea salt mix and garnished with a blood orange slice. Ladies will suck 'em down like hummingbirds to sugar water....never know what hits them.
 
myers dark rum and coke or seagrams extra smooth vodka straight or blackheart spiced rum straight, thats after a day at the salt mine!

Wild Turkey 101 (if ya got to drink gov't taxed whiskey)
or Double rectified Shine and chase it with the back of yur hand. ;):D:eek:

Vodka is my regular drink. Absolut is the cheapest I go.
Sometimes just over some ice, sometimes with a splash of tonic and a squeeze of lime, or from a bottle wrapped in a brown paper bag.

I also like a good brown beer or ale. My daily drinker is Shiner Bock.

if I feel girly (which isn't very often) some Meyers Rum and OJ with a splash of grenadine.

If I'm at a party at my friend kevin's house...who knows what I'll end up drinking. Usually a lot of cheap beer since I suck at beer pong...and then usually the mystery cup from some sicko drinking game...and likely some stuff I probably don't want to remember ingesting.

My Hurricane:

1 shot Malibu Rum
1 shot Bacardi Rum
1 shot Southern Comfort
1 shot Grenadine
1 shot Mr & Mrs T's sweet and sour mix

Combine all of the above in a tall glass. Fill the remaining area of the glass with 2/3s orange juice and 1/3 Dole pineapple juice. Serve over ice.

It tastes fantastic and it really sneaks up on you. A version of this won my wife and I four free drinks on our last Carnival Cruise as my mix was chosen by the head barkeep, the cruise director, and a guest as the best drink.
