So I bought some limes, triple sec and some silver tequilla.
Salted rim.
Wife did not like it, too strong.....not sweet enough. I thought it was okay.
Fellow from Brazil told me to just go buy the jar of mix. Cheap is fine.
Maybe she will like that better.
I bought a bottle of Jim Beam Rye.
It was our anniversary on the 25th. We might get around to celebrating tonight.

Thanks!
Gosh, I dont know if I have ever even had rum before. My sister will drink that Captain stuff.
I will have a look at the liquor store for one of those rums.
Andre said that a popular drink in Brazil was a cheap margarita mix with ice and Vodka.
He said tequila was expensive and it was too hot to drink it.

It's a Puerto Rican rum.
Mixers can be fresh fruits... try the power of club soda or tonics... lemonade knocks down anything... especially anything as sweet and sour they got going these days..

I had 5 white claws the other night... tough to maintain seated or drunk.

I really like PBR. I drink mostly Budweiser and PBR.
PBR seems a bit less malty-sweet.
The White Claw is a boon to calorie conscious booze hounds everywhere!

I can’t do PBR anymore... too much in college.
now I’m on to Modelo... someone said it’s a rice vs corn thing for certain stomachs....
I do love ice cold Budweiser long necks.... hmmm after a good day of work.
If I was a calorie counter... I’d be into vodka sodas....like Kate Moss.

I really like that Negra Modelo.
I am of course a Gringo....but there does not seem to be anything better than REAL Mexican food with Negra Modelo.
The Mexicans over West in the big town dont speak much English............GREAT food however!

I'm the same with National Bohemian. It was never a good beer, but it *was* Maryland. Now it's from PA I believe. Screw that. If I want cheap(ish) and local, I buy Guinness made in the Baltimore brewery. It's a first class beer that sells for a bit less than Sam Adams.

Maybe an hour away from the brewery. Love a local beer
Oooooh my whatever, that is about the worst thing a person could drink.
Back in the day when destillery methods were not up to removing all the inferior alcohols, like Allyl alcohol ( Which smells like onions) Methyl alcohol ( Which turns you blind or dead) and countless others, the end product was not very palatable.
So they had to come up with something to cover the bad taste.
Up this way caraway seeds was the solution.
Over time people grew used to the taste and accepted that snaps/ akvavit should make you shudder after downing a shot.
When I was a kid, the approved way of getting around that was to freeze the snaps and "enjoy" it at -22 celcius.
Honestly, if you want to drink snaps/ akvavit, look to Norway or Sweden instead of Denmark.
All ours are crap, they make some very good stuff, without caraway seeds.
If you can't get it where you live, let me know and I'll ship a ½ bottle over to you.

AAlborg isn't bad. Not the best I've had, but not bad. Without getting up and looking, I think it's made in Norway now. We have a very good American version called Krogstad. Heavier on the anis than I'm used to, but very silky and smooth. Linie is pretty good too. That goes better with winter. That's all I've had. Akvavit isn't a big seller around here I guess. Some stores don't have a single bottle of anything.
