I'm a big fan of Guinness and often drink it at home but I always wish it was creamier. So last night I had a brainwave. I went to the shop and bought a 6 pack and a carton of fresh cream. I put a big teaspoon of cream into my pint glass before adding the Guinness. It was gorgeous!! It tasted like the Guinness in Ireland (i don't live there....obviously).

It curdled a little and turned a weird maroon colour but it was really gorgeous.

Another of my favourite drinks is rum and ginger ale. One night recently I came home drunk and there was no booze in the gaf except for crabbies ginger ale beer and a bottle of rum so I thought...f*ck it...why not,,,,and mixed them together. I call it 'Crum'. I can't say it tasted great but i can say that I nearly puked on the tube the next day thinking about it.

So what about you? Any recommendations or suggestions?

a jager bomb, but you're dropping the jager shot into a double vodka and red bull.
Vodka and milk
Vodka and water

I drank vodka, wine and milk mixed together one night in uni.

Would not recommend.

I used to suck a hard sweet and drink vodka straight. Couldn't stomach it now, hall's soothers were the best!

Was out a few weeks ago and someone put a shot of sambuca in his Guinness. That can't be nice...

Did you know Champagne and Absinthe was the first champagne cocktail?
</Michael Caine voice>

Try it - it is awesome; you can layer the absinthe on top of the champagne. Be careful though..I remember walking into a bar in Prague undecided what drink to have, at the bar was an empty wheelchair and a guy on the ground. Plus his two friends laughing hysterically.
I said I'm not sure what I'm having,
Barman says have what he had, 3 shots of absinthe in 10 minutes.
What happened I asked.
Guy forgot he couldn't walk, says he.

Cava and mixed fruit kopparberg is doing the job right now but may be a different story in the morn;)

Brandy and chocolate milk yo.

That's the cheap version of a Brandy Alexander, I suppose. Which is very nice, though not typically drank in public by blokes who are a bit insecure about their sexuality.

A friend of mine likes a drink called B & B, a mix of Brandy & Bénédictine* which is available pre-bottled. I don't like it. I did like brandy & Cointreau ... and it turns out that's almost also a proper cocktail too (the Sidecar).

I need my own bar, so I can experiment with cocktails. I actually mixed brandy and Irish whisky a few months ago, as a test. Only a tiny amount. The whole was less than the sum of its parts, I have to say ...

* If you don't know what Bénédictine is, well, Jägermeister is like Bénédictine Lite. Try chugging shots of that stuff, both your hair and your poo will turn olive green, and you'll smell like a medieval apothecary for a fortnight. Assuming it stays down for more than a minute, that is.

Tequila and sambuca. JD, Captain Morgans and coke. Remember fcuk from that night drinking those two concoctions.

That sounds utterly vile. Sure fire vomit producer.

Quick tip acquired from living in the Southwest; Jose Cuervo tequila is utter muck, which is why people get sick on it so much.

Jose Cuervo is 51% agave and then grain alcohol. The gold is just coloured not aged.

So a bit like making a whiskey and then cutting it with cheap poitin - Look for a tequila made from 100% agave. Silver, then Reposado, Anejo, then extra Anejo make up the ageing grades.

But look for 100% Agave - worth it to make up the difference.

And the worm thing is a myth.

Combinations of lots of different spirits never ends well. A shot with half vodka and half sambuca isn't bad. Theres is a name for it but I can't remember it now.

Skol 1080 and Carlsberg Special Brew (central heating for tramps) mixed in a pint glass makes...

The Afterbirth.

So called because they don't mix and you end up with a horrid cloudy mix with big lumps forming in it.

Great for playing catch up when you go out late though.

"“We took the lager and froze the water out of it,” says Mike.

“This gave us a syrupy drink which was put into tankers and reconstituted at the other end with specially treated water before being sold to the public.

“The project was kept heavily secret within the group and I never heard of any other breweries doing it.”

A sideline of this reconstituted drink was the alcoholic syrup, which could also be drunk in its neat form.

The result was Skol Special Strength 1080, which Mike says was like ‘rocket fuel’.

“1040 would be four per cent strength so Skol 1080 was a very strong beer. A small glass of it was the equivalent of four or five pints.”"

This reminds me of on a night out I mixed Bucky and Absinthe to make " Bucksinthe ".

Rocket Fuel. Ingredients: 1 bottle of buckfast, 1 bottle of cheap energy drink, 1 naggin of vodka.

Every time you take a swig of the bucky top it up with energy drink until all the energy drink is gone, then do the same with the vodka, and then finish the bottle.

Gin, west coast cooler, dash of lime in a pint glass with ice and a straw. Roll on summer!

aoshea83

1 shot of Bailey's Irish Cream + 1 shot of lime cordial in two seperate shot glasses

- First put the lime shot in your mouth and then followed by the baileys, mix it in your mouth, gargle and swallow. . .

It's called the 'Women's Revenge'

Double southern comfort with a bottle of Blue WKD on top in a pint glass, lovely stuff. Also had bailys, coco liqueur and mint liqueur mixed for me before, tasted like a mint aero.

Vodka and milk, delish man.

Red wine and Coca Cola, when I was young and stupid.

Nothing stupid about it, quite popular in Czech republic as the red wine didn't used be all the great - coke makes it drinkable. It's quite nice. Just don't you dare do it with anything reasonable.

Great summer drink is a bottle of Fino or Manzanilla sherry and litre of Sprite/7up over lots of ice in a jug. Mix 2:1 Sprite:Sherry You can drink it all day, very refreshing for a summer BBQ.

The Spanish call it Rebujito (REB-OH-HEAT-TOE)

Oh yeah, and ran out of beer at a mates house last week so he got the poitin out. Only mixer available was this rancidly disgusting pineappleade drink called SMAK(looked like it was sourced from an Afghanistani poundshop). I wouldn't recommend it, Poitin and smak is a combo not to be messed with..
