As the subject indicates, post your favorite non-beer alcoholic beverage with ingredients. I'm looking for something new to drink. My favorites are below:

Current Favorite: Makers Mark on ice with the tiniest splash of Gingerale.

Old Favorite: The "Dirty Girl Scout":
1 oz: Vodka
1 oz: Ice 101 (peppermint schnapps)
1 oz: Baileys
1 oz: 1 oz Godiva Chocolate Liquor
1 oz: skim milk to taste
serve on ice

College Favorite for cheap and quick drunkeness: the "Candy Cane":
8 oz Coke
as much ICE 101 as you can stand

Gin, tonic water, orange zest, lots of ice.

My favorite non-beer drink is Irish whiskey or bourbon on the rocks, but I figured I should post my favorite cocktail.

I used to make something similar: equal parts of Baileys, Kaluha, and Van Gough Vodka

Currently, I'm rather simple: (2/3) Smirnoff vodka or better with (1/3) soda.

Most bars around my college wouldn't muddle the mint leaves, thus, the mojito didnt tase right. (mint was basically floated on top.)

Waiting for a good thread

Not a good drink for college bars :/
They're all about speed, not quality

I have 2 good ones for you:

Peach Martini
1 part Vodka
1 part Peach Schnappes
1 part Malibu Coconut Rum

^Great but a little girly, very smooth though.


Alabama Slammer
1 part Soco
1 part Amaretto
2 parts Pineapple Juice
2 parts Orange Juice
1 part Grenadine

Incredible shot that's not too girly but good for those that don't like to taste too much alcohol.

I haven't named this one yet but it's excellent for warming up on a cold, snowy day.

Make a cup of hot chocolate.
add 1 big spoonful of butter rum batter; mix well.
add 1-2 oz. Creme de Cacao, mix well.

and thats it!

Another favorite is "the Universe":
2.0 oz vodka
0.5 oz lime juice (Rose's, or one lime fresh-squeezed)
1.0 oz pistachio liqueur (or pistachio syrup since p. liqueur is too hard to find)
1.0 oz midori
2-3 oz pinapple juice, to taste really.

Then I take white russians a step farther:
equal parts vodka, kahlua, and bailey's.
shake over ice; add a good splash of half-and-half.
if you want to modify it further, add an equal part of Hazelnut liquor.

Flaming Dr Pepper

1 Shot almaretto topped w/ brandy in shot glass
1 lighter, lit
Drop flaming shot glass into glass of cheap beer
Slam.

Oh wait, that has beer, dang. Double crap I don't drink.

Okay:

Diet Mt Dew, chilled to just above freezing, served over crushed (not cubes, not tubes, not disks, but crushed) ice.

Edit: Triple dang, falloutboy already posted it. Guess I'll go back to hangin' with the rest of the non-drankin nancy boys.
