We have had beer, whiskey, wine (maybe?), and mixes of all of those. I am curious, as of today what is your favorite adult drink?
I go through phases myself but currently I am not drinking much but when I do its usually an unfiltered wheat beer.

Vermouth on the rocks with a twist?
No, if it's not cheap wine then 90% gin and tonic. New Amsterdam is working pretty well.

I must break my response into two parts, beer and bourbon.
For beer, I prefer Pale Ales with IPAs a close second. I have a lot of favorites in those two categories. A stout once in a while during cooler months.
I like several bourbons, my favorite remains Blanton's.
Not drinking much at all these days but:
Laphroaig Quarter Cask
Any Super Hoppy Imperial West Coast IPA
Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout
Iron Horse Irish Death
Dry Italian Red Wines

Good bourbon, good anejo tequila, good dry red or white wine, IPAs, pale ales, gin&tonic. I don't really cycle through them. I stay current with them all.Originally Posted by breakingtime91

Long island iced tea, though I stay away from them in general due to the alcohol content. I have a high tolerance, but that's a lot of alcohol.
A Mexican restaurant in my small home town has the best margaritas I've ever had. I once asked them what their secret ingredient was: Everclear. It was then that I realized the food was terrible, and no customer there didn't have a margarita.
My SO and I recently discovered Texas Silver Star Whiskey. Without exaggeration, it is the best accessibly-priced whiskey I've ever had. I met one of the owners at a promotion and he signed the bottle for me.
Otherwise, the older I get, the more I appreciate a good cup of cold water.

Scotch (dalmore), Bourbon (four roses single barrel), Old Fashioned's (bulleit rye), and Highballs (hibiki).

I'll occasionally make Vodka Martinis, mostly as a reason to eat garlic-jalapeno stuffed olives I like from Costco.
Recently discovered this excellent Vodka.
I've not found the Gold or Platinum, but the regular stuff is great.
ETA: Summer drink recommendation...
Dirty Martini with chunks of watermelon.
Don't mock it until you've tried it.
You Southerners that like to put a little salt on your melon will appreciate this for sure.

A shot of Fireball. It takes me a whole evening to finish it and I do that about twice a year

Gin and tonic. A decent gin- Plymouth is a favorite, but I'll also gladly accept any of good quality.
Schweppes Tonic Water, of course. Plus the juice of half a lime, with a generous amount of oil from the peel.
Perfect drink for a hot tropical afternoon.
