By request of brennan...Top 5 Alcoholic Drinks

[marinermick]

1. Absinthe and lemonade.
2. Kava
3. Pims
4. Er, after you've had 1., 2. & 3. you shouldn;t be able to think of 4. or 5.!

crickey, all three, especially the top, really f**k with your head as well as the rest of your body

Well you could try that concoction of sleeping tablets and Red Bull that the QRL players were alleged to have drunk.........

The Absinth we have today is very mild compared to the hallucinogen that was being drunk in the late 19th century in Europe. That stuff allegedly sent Van Gogh mad.

I haven't had Absinth and I think I'll draw the line at it actually.

Have had Kava at a Tongan wedding reception which was great - you couldn't feel your lips after two or three sips of the stuff and standing up was an effort too, lol! No wonder the men all sit around take two sips, clap, then pass it onto someone else. Real earthy flavour from what I can remember.

The kava I had just tasted like dirt.

Absinthe is just vile in taste and it really makes you crazy and aggressive.

We once spent an evening in Montematre, Paris, looking for the bar (cannot remember the name now but its name had something to do with a rabbit or hare) where all the famous artists used to go and drink absinthe and philosophise. We wanted to go and drink absinthe and philosophise. Anyway, after endless wandering we finally found it and it was closed that day for a private function!!!
