St. Euphrosynos Taverna and Ouzeri 44 (5)

[inconsequential]

Well, we all know beer is popular here but what are some favorite cocktails? Recipes welcome! I love a good vodka martini. I prefer a 2:1 with a dry vermouth and dirty with a lot of olives.

This is what Taverna used to be - anything went in here [ well more or less ] From discussions about gardening to barbecue type food and of course

BEER​

Ah, I'm a lightweight when it comes to alcohol.

I somewhat enjoy strawberry or peach flavored wine coolers and frozen drinks?

And I once had a beer from a microbrewery in Napa that was very tasty. A dessert wine at a winery I toured there too, but I can't afford $100-$200 a bottle!


(Maybe it's not that I don't like alcohol but that I don't like CHEAP alcohol - but I still think I'm just a lightweight, lol.)

Kamikaze. simple and crazy good. just lime juice, triple sec, and vodka, in a 1 to 1 to 1 ratio.

Vodka - the one drink I do NOT appreciate

My wife doesn't like the taste of most alcoholic drinks but I stumbled across one she likes. A full shot of gin, a splash of maraschino cherry juice and one can of ginger ale. Garnish with a few cherries and it is yummy.

I also like Smirnoff Ice green apple bite. I wish someone made a soda that tasted that good. Wow, that stuff is delicious.

Where were you, when my friend & I were 17, and trying to mix a pitcher of them without a recipe... By the time we got the proportions right, it no longer mattered

Someone did recommend a wine here on CF, and I made a note in my computer.

I seem to recall either chocolate or coffee flavor being involved.

But shipping costs are rather prohibitive, so I will need to wait to try it until I visit California lol, unless someone local here ever wants to order any.

Just organise me a crate of good Belgian beer please

I'll be happy with Abbey ale from a certain Brewery in the US I visited this summer

Which might that be? (not the Spencer Abbey in MA by chance?)

Go the distance.

Ommegang Brewery - wonderful beers and a really good eatery on site too

Ommegang, in Cooperstown, NY. I have forgotten which one she preferred, but so farm they;re ALL good!


ETA.. OOPS, she snuck in, while I was typing & answered herself!

 

[~Anastasia~]

LOL next thing you know, we'll be organizing a network to purchase and ship beverages to one another from our own locales.

 

[Anhelyna]

All the beer are good - but I really preferred Abbey Ale - very very scrummy

Hmmm, It seems there is a gap in my beer-drinking experience that needs to be filled....

I'm partial to the Ommegang Three Philosophers Ale, myself

haha, that was the first thing I made at my first Pascha, in moderation of course.

I will have a rum and dr pepper.

I just stopped in myself.

Can anyone get my cat down off the rafters? She's afraid of all the thunder today and hid herself up there.
