I choose the RTD cos i hardly drink any alchol and so usually just have some crappy RTD thing like Archers or Tattoo. I quote like them. BUT at home I have been known to have Malibu and pineapple juice, I quite like that

Premium beer it is

Don't get me wrong - I'll drink the cheap domestic stuff 'til I'm green, but for a quiet drink, I can't turn down a cold crisp lager of the Steinie variety. or some imported British ale (Newcastle, Boddies etc).

I generally drink chardonnay or merlot at home and the occassional bottle of bubbly

Vodka as my favoured spirit.

Belgian beer is something to be delighted in - Hoegarden and Duvel are my favourites.

Oooohhhhhhh black russians. My Mum introduced me to those when I was a teen. My friends and I used to buy cheap vodka and cheap kahn I think it was called (Kahlua was far to expensive) and we'd drink the lot black russian style. I vaguely remember hanging from a tree while trying to pee because I didn't want to get my feet wet.

That's right ... you're from Northland too huh?

What else could it be ... I think Kristov 62 had about 10% vodka and 90% water!

I steered clear of it because of its uncanny similarity to meths.

No, I was more of a "bourbon" man. I can't remember the name of it now but it was like Kristov in that it was mainly water, and it came out of a big plastic container behind the bar.

It also had a number in the name.

I think the worst home made alcohol I ever had was Onion wine. Didn't know what it was at the time ... someone just handed me something at the after-prom party (I was already well juiced) and I drank it. The onion flavour hit me like a locomotive. I then spent the rest of the evening being at one with the gutter. Not pleasant at all.
