What's in your glass?

[quiet guy]

A glass of Shiraz but will have a whiskey later to help to numb a nagging toothache

 

[Saul Goodman]

Absolut, from the freezer.

Zubrowka and Appletiser.

 

[Dead Cat Bounce]

Once I've finished the cup of coffee I'm going to open a bottle of Aldi's Freeman's Bay from New Zealand.

A friend recomended it and at £5.99 it looks like a bargain.

My schedule is currently a bit out of whack, and I am roasting a chicken - probably no longer counts as tea at this point mind you.

EDIT: This was supposed to be in the what are you having for tea thread, I did briefly think that everyone seemed to be having liquid sustenance - I was clearly in the wrong thread. I have been drinking beer, which may account for some of this thread confusion.

Red wine - it would have been my old fella’s birthday today so have to toast him with his favourite tipple

 

[Rebelda]

Chapel down sparkling wine. English champagne, essentially. I deserve it

 

[kalidarkone]

Amaretto, posh dark rum, apple juice and ice.
It's delicious

Polishing off a cheap bottle of white while watching MoD.
It's ok.

Apparently it's almost Christmas....hick!

[petee]

an inexpensive but quite tasty zinfandel with dinner.

My nephew bought me this for Christmas.

It's not bad gin, if a bit pricey. Don't think gin is good for cats, mind.

He got me a bottle of Hendricks, too.

Hendricks is nice with sliced cucumber.

What does it actually taste of? They sell it in a shop nearby, but have never tried it.

 

[Plumdaff]

Bought a fancier than usual Kremstal Grüner Veltliner to have with Christmas dinner. It's delicious.

 

[Winot]

Lovely bit of 2000 vintage port. First drink of the day, with Christmas cake.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

Does a large glass of Hennessy Cognac over the Christmas pudding count?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

A rather nice white wine, then name of which I can't remember.

Somewhere between sherry and cough medicine. The first glass/swig from the bottle always makes you pull a funny face, but you get a taste for it quickly.
