/me googles Hendricks Gin, goes oooooooh!

Classic Martini with dash of orange bitters and two olives. Stirred not shaken.

Handfuls of advil.

Very dry Bombay martini, up, with a twist. Shake it and you get no tip. A shaken martini is a crime against gin.

Alternately, Maker's, neat.

However, what I would like right now more than anything else is a big glass of Perrier w/lime, as I've suddenly gone all oogy.

Strawberry Breeze or Harvest Blend. Most bars don't stock 'em, so I'd rather just stay home and drink. Like tonight!

posted by Eideteker 06 March | 19:54

Rum and diet. Well is fine. Keep the lime.

bmarkey: oogy?

posted by chewatadistance 06 March | 20:12

Right now, due to last night, ginger ale. Outrageous ginger ale by Natural Brew, which is super delicious and, if I hadn't had 11,000 beers last night, can be rendered even more awesome mixed by maker's mark.

chewatadistance: It's a term I picked up from my fiance. It's sort of... not quite right. Slightly upset stomach, slight dizziness, that sort of thing. "Mild nausea" would be a the medical term, I guess. Not exactly sick, just oogy.

MGL: Have you ever had Reed's Ginger Brew? It's awesome stuff. Makes a nice Moscow Mule, too.

bmarkey: Is "oogy" maybe a Northwest lingo? I've heard it among my friends up here, although I can't remember who at the moment, and I know I must have said it myself.

[slides one of mgl's ginger ales down the bar to bmarkey]

posted by chewatadistance 06 March | 20:24

matildaben: Might be NW in origin at that. I don't recall ever hearing it before I moved here.

chew: Thanks, but Perrier w/lime it what does it for me.

Deuchars India Pale Ale.

porpoise: I've only had one mojito. It had lots of crunchy ice and real mint leaves. It was beyond yummy.

posted by deborah 07 March | 15:39

Manhattan (Maker's) straight up please.

I might switch to Stoli martinis, dirty a little later.
