Miller Lite if I'm having beer

 

CC soda and ginger (old time cocktail called a Presbyterian..CC Press for short)

 

Sea Breeze (I like mine with white grapefruit juice and very minimal cranberry...and a lime)

 

Vodka and Fresca with a lime

 

Chablis and Zinfandel with cheddar or pepper jack

@CelticCrafter  there are many household uses for vodka, i.e., cleaning, disinfecting.  Maybe your husband would go for that instead of pitching it.

@VanSleepy I have enough to clean Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle and probably more left over! 🤣

An occasional glass of White Zinfandel is nice.

Chardonnay for me....once in a great while I'll have a gin and tonic with lime.

I believe "everything in moderation".  I doubt ONE drink is going to hurt anyone, unless they have some sort of condition...

Vodka gimlet, but only when made with freshly squeezed lime juice, the bottled stuff isn't even close to the same.  Otherwise, a vodka tonic will do.  Cheers! 🍸

I am one of those that has "a condition."  It's weird, my back starts aching after any alcohol!  And I mean painful!  I can only have mock tails.  Love a pina colada.

Savignon Blanc with dinner when out, I like the wine spritzers at home for no reason.

Love Pina Colada's and Margheritas, especially in the summer, but not from mixes which I find too sweet.  Also like a good gin and tonic with lime of course.

Neither of us are drinkers.  We recently pitched a big box of all kinds of alcohol because we don't have visitors much now.  We still have about 15 bottles of wine to get rid of, and neither of us care about drinking it.  

 

When we went out long ago, it was one gin and tonic for me.  And iced tea.
