At the risk of losing some points off my mancard, I have been hooked on them. I still love beer, but I'm digging them. Using Rain Vodka, Apple Pucker, Rose's Appletinis, and fresh sliced Granny Smith Apples.

I'm not incline to Martini's in general, but my brother likes appletinis and I'll admit I find them drinkable. My brother doesn't like beer at all though. Thank god for my Sis in law, atleast her and I can drink some stouts and enjoy them at some dive bar. Guys are allowed to drink Mikes Hard Lemonade and Smirnoff Ice but they aren't allowed to drink Zima? |
Who told you that? Those are total chick drinks. |
That should give you a little clue about how cool apple martinis are.  If you want to drink a man's martini, just put some gin into a glass. Open a bottle of vermouth on the other side of the room so that the faintest whiff of its aroma will waft across the room and pass over the gin. Now put the cap back on the vermouth and drink the damn gin like a man!

Maybe you should try them with cranberry juice too. Should keep you from getting a yeast infection. I feel ashamed enough ordering a dirty martini. Apple?? |
I like screwdrivers, and I ain't gay. But I do like gladiator movies. 
Depends on how she likes them: Stronerg = equal part vodka and apple pucker Weaker= equal parts Rose' apple martnini mix and vodka For a different twist make a red apple martini: 2oz Alize pink passion 2oz apple pucker 1 oz cranberry |
Rum and Cokes are teh gay?? Tell that to all my freinds  My favorite drink in Korea is a hard liquor called soju (extremly popular)... It is available in all sorts of flavors, chery and grape are my favorites... Soju is usually served in a big tall glass with ice. The alcohol has almost no taste when it is properly mixed with a flavoring, and it goes down WAY too easily. It is all too easy to suck down a few quarts of the stuff and become, shall we say, VERY intoxicated  A big combat bottle of soju generally runs less than 10 bucks downtown. |
Because with limes you are halfway to Tequila shots!!! |
We had a little retirement celebration for somebody at the office two days ago. Seemed like everybody was drinking one of those.  To each their own I guess. A friend of mine is working on a "mangotini". Mango martini might be good, kinda tropical. Still, I'll take my Jack Daniels and Jim Beam.

Any drink that takes away the flavor of the liquor is a ghey drink. Since Vodka has very little flavor to begin with, it should only be added to normally occuring substances like orange juice. Since pucker is a contrived substance, mixing it with vodka is art. That is ghey. Men don't consume for the artistic value. Edited to clarify: Men don't consume for artistic value of the non-alcoholic portion of the drink. The art in brewing, fermenting, and distilling is masculine. |
'cause they keep the scurvy in check. duh. arrrrrrrrrr |
Well, if I am ever on a ship in the middle of the Atlantic with a bunch of stinking men with nary an island girl in sight, I guess I've got my drink choice going for me.  |
had a korean waitress who gave me a bottle of soju as a gift. put down the whole 375 in about an hour, mainly due to how easy-drinking it is. now, i've never been hit with a sledgehammer, but...

i keep giving y'all recipes that i've spent a long time perfecting. here's the recipe that got yuppies and elderly jazz fans to wade through all the thugs in deep ellum and come to my bar: the woman version: 1 oz. ciroc vodka (actually a grappa, but oh well) 1 oz. apple pucker 1/2 oz. midori STSOOI (shake the shit out of it) the man version: 2 oz. ciroc 1/2 oz. pucker 1/4 oz midori STSOOI the grape and melon flavors serve to round out the tartness of the pucker, and provide a complete flavor experience, which has been referred to, by many, many women as "liquid panty remover". |

Appletini's are cool. I agree with the Zima comment. I'm a strait Jack (started as Good Ol' Tennessee Sippin' Whiskey!), Dewars and Johnny Walker Guy. I like the occasional mixed drink with Jack, Pineapple and ORange Juice (PIO's Beating Stick, google it!). But it doesn't say much for me since I'm 19.  I only drink at my house late at night while on ARFCOM The difference for me is: Friend: Man, when I turn 21 I'm getting so fucked up! Me: Man, a week before I turn 21 I'm spending every hour working for extra cash and filling out Class III transfers Friend: Why the hell would you do that? Me: A Gemtech on a SBR AR15 won't give me the spins

It ain't the fruit that makes drinks ghey, it's the sugary mixes. I don't understand how people can graduate into adulthood and still want their beverages to taste like children's drinks. |
