Single Malt Scotch. No mixing required, not even an ice cube. Preferably it should be at least 18 years old.
Speaking of which I got to have a wonderful 1971 Glenmorangie this week.
Easy Bake. Flop-a-palooza. Woosh. Pop. I don't skulk.

Hmm. I'm a vodka girl: either vodka cran, vodka tonic or gimlet. Anyway it goes, it all comes with extra lime for me.
I would have made an excellent sailor! Except for being seasick.

well, I favor a touch of water.

However, drinks made with egg whites are cool.
There's a place in Boston that does full raw egg "flips" which are pretty badass. [link]
I still stand by my Sazerac cocktail recommendation. Classy, classic, simple, badass, mysterious.

I like a touch of water too, it really opens up the flavor for me. But never an ice cube. You can't control the amount of water and it makes it too cold to really appreciate all the nuances. Bad, bad, bad.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think I posted a link to Natter a while ago on how to make a vodka/Skittle infusion. The same blog had a post on making glasses out of gumi bears to drink your skittle vodka from.

oh, absolutely. But, the likelihood of the bartender knowing how to make it, even if s/he has all of the ingredients? Slim to none. Gimlets you can be pretty sure of. As a woman, you run the risk of them adding too much Rose's (which is not as good as fresh lime and simple syrup, but more likely to be found), but that can be fixed.

Scotch is wasted on me. I've tried. I don't taste anything. I'm sure it's me, but it was so sad. Relatives with 12-year-old Whatthefuck they poured just for me, and I'm like"Yeah, that was cold and wet, okay." Like explaining making out to Rain Man.

Gimlets you can be pretty sure of.
Ah, if only. I've averaged about 1 in 3 vodka gimlet orders coming close--the others have been some sort of unholy vodka with a squirt of lime concoctions.

Yeah, I recently ordered a Periodista and was thwarted due to insufficient ingredients.
I need to go to bars that specialize in classic cocktails, single malt whiskey, micro brewed beer, and, um, port wine.
Basically, I should live at the Eastern Standard Kitchen.
