For the sake of practicality a water glass of everclear.
For the sake of sentimentality a double Wild Turkey, neat.
With my luck, a skunked Heinecken with a Virginia Slim butt swimming around the bottom.
A frozen hot chocolate from Serendipity. Orgasmic.
This would have the added advantage of prolonging you life indefinitely, since there are always six million people on line in that place, it's like the queue for the last helicopter out of saigon.

Hey, get your own!
A frozen hot chocolate from Serendipity. Orgasmic.
Also,I've never been to Serendipity, but the hot Chocolate at the City Bakery is astonishing. You can literally feel your teeth enloosening as you drink it.
Unalcoholic: An In-n-Out milkshake.
Alcoholic: A GIGANTIC Warp Core Breach from Quark's Bar at the Star Trek Experience section of the Las Vegas Hilton. Those things are worse than a pangalactic gargle blaster.
The star trek experience is abraded nipples from those polyester shirts and carpal-tunnel from gripping the arms of your chair when the camera shakes because a person with a forehead problem has fired a blob of fire at you.
Why in the stinking lump of fuck is there not a Buck Rodgers experience in Vegas? Oh for the days of Bugsey Seigel, if only he had not been killed when that frenchman Assumed the Flamingo. Benjy woulda had a buncha midgets in silver suits serving up Princess Ardala slings (glitter, well tequila, frozen grapefruit slush and a mexican roofie).
Hey, jonmc! 18-year Macallan's is my drink, too! Just ran out, actually. Which reminds me - I need to replenish my stock before I get laid off in January. It's kinda hard to justify the expense when I'm in slacker mode.
Champagne gives me gas. And one time, when me and two of my highschool friends were drinking two bottles of champagne in the street (smuggled from one's parental liquor cabinet), we popped the cork and it busted a window.
I'll take the remainder of whatever Kenko doesn't finish. And Kenko - have you tried Germain-Robin, from up in Mendocino? I'd happily check out with a snifter of Anno Domini.
Alcoholic : white wine--Gruner veltliner, dry Riesling or semillon--harder, a black orchid--blue curacao, vodka (I'd want Absolut citron) and enough cranberry to turn it purple. On the rocks, NOT in a martini glass. Human beings are not meant to drink out of funnels.
Non-alcoholic: the hot chocolate from Cafe Angelina's in Paris. I never had a chance to go to Rumpelmayer's in NYC, but this place is run by the same family.
