Whatcha drinking (2025)?

I saw this yesterday at Costco, I was very tempted

I'd have bought a couple. Mortgage the house, enjoy the wine.

This year’s Winter Welcome:

We bought some whole coffee beans in Honduras, mainly just to have something to buy, and we’re drinking that this morning. It’s excellent!

What's your preferred roast? We're dark roasted coffee drinkers!

We both prefer light.

It was funny buying it. There was an array of coffees out, whole bean and ground, but none of them listed roast (and none of them were decaf ).

I picked up a couple of different bags, smelling them, comparing what was written about them, and a young lady who worked there asked if she could be of any help.

“Yes, thanks…can you tell me if any of these are light roast? I don’t see anything saying whether they’re light, medium, or dark roast.”

“Yes, yes, of course! That is an excellent coffee you have! That is a very good choice!”

“Yes, thank you…but are any of these light roast? That’s what I’m looking for, light roast.”

“Yes, of course! That one is also an excellent choice! You have very good taste!”

“Ok, then. Um, thanks.”

Picked this up in the local booze shop. It's a Spanish beer company (Cervezas1906). Have to say it was delicious.

Mixing it up. Lightly dirty gin martini.

Not liking this Coupe all that much ... it's not very well balanced, that or my hands are just too tiny.

I could never get the taste for Gin.
My Mother, DH and Sister all like Gin.
My Father was Scotch.
I'm mostly a wine-o and add now Vodka or Tequila.

I'm am equal opportunist. I like everything

A French Martini, refreshing and very dangerous!
I have to pace myself, because I could really chug this stuff!
I bought one of those miniature bottles of Chambord, found some frozen Pineapple Juice in the bottom of the freezer drawer and I always have Vodka in the house now

 

[kaneohegirlinaz]

I stuck my finger in to the Chambord, never had it before, but my Sister-in-law back East drinks the stuff with Godiva Chocolate liquor in some sort of cocktail (as she runs off to look that up) and it's delicious!
I gave DH a small sip of the Chambord and you should heave seen his face!!!
"What the hell is that?"
