Spirits Within

So it's time for my yearly tribute to our long departed forum dedicated to the movie Spirits Within. So tell me, what spirits do you like within, where do you imbibe them and what was your first experience with spirits (alcoholic or transcendental).

Myself I've become quite a fan of Whiskeys in the last few years (I used to drink kids alcohol :( ), I'll switch to a bourbon like Jack Daniels if I'm drinking socially though rather then wasting a single malt!

My first experience with spirits was in an ancient forest high up in the mountains near a cosmic canyon, I'd been training for years to defeat an ultimate weapon and eventually after many years of it it running away I was able to pin it down over the ocean with the help of some friends. The spirits seemed to leak some horrible green ethereal liquid that seemed to stain the carpet. Yeah, they totally weren't worth the effort. Next time I'll probably just go to the northern peninsula and fight through the caves to see them, or maybe in the sewers of Deling City...

I like the clever way you've done this! I should do a tribute myself. :D

As everyone sort of knows by now, I don't drink any spirits within me. Probably for the best.

The first time I drank we had one-hundred proof peppermint schnapps in my friend's basement. We watched The Matrix Reloaded and mostly everything else was a blur. Then I woke up super early and had to go wait tables with a hangover. Bad day.

I drink beer and irish whiskey. Jameson, specifically. With ginger ale and a hint of lime.

My go-to-drink is Jameson and coke or Jameson and ginger ale.

I used to be a big vodka guy though. So I still have a soft spot for pretty much anything with vodka in it.

I won't drink tequila willingly. You have to get me drunkhammeredwasted to start drinking it, and then the night will never end well.

A good rye ... NOT canadian club cause that trout is sick.

I used to be very big on tequila in the form of margheritas because of a cocktail bar that did amazing strawberry margheritas and tangerina ones called tangeritas.

Straight up, Sambucca.

A Jameson's and Coke isn't bad either.

But tbh I drink like once in a blue moon these days.

cheap beer.

Creepy thing about this thread: I had the main song from Spirits Within stuck in my head for a few minutes for no apparent reason today. GET OUT OF MY HEAD :stare:

Okay, topic! Anything that's a pretty colour and tasty! Some TASTE BAD (like rum and orange juice, gross) :quina:

I could drink vodka and tonics all day every day.

In the blue forest a black shadow came to me and said, "Drink and be happy." And I drank from the black bottle whose scent was of raspberries, and I took the clear bottle, whose scent was of poison, and I drank. And the shadows grew up to the tops of the trees, and the ground was much lower and much higher. And we ran from the sounds of a man's voice, and we came to a stream. Now the stream was a river, and the waters were boiling, and the shadow he leaped from the hill. He scrambled up, in the black autumn leaves, and he turned and looked in my eyes, and I saw the pale sclera, and the white gleam of his teeth when he smiled. And he turn and ran, and the shadows crept down from the trees around me, and the waters came up from their bed, and I leaped from the side of the hill. When I woke I was wet, and I was cold, and my shirt smelled of raspberries and poison. And I found my way home, through the window left open, and I fell in a heap on the bed. Come morning I swore off raspberries forever, and wished in vain I were dead.
Razzmataz and Vodka: probably not the smartest first-time experience with alcohol.

I could drink rum&coke all night long, but I could drink this trout for breakfast (and sometimes I do):

Okay, it's not "spirits," but it raises mine. *ba-dum tsh*

Sake. :quina:

Vodka first. Rum second. Bourbon third.

A Gibson made with Belvedere = :heart:

At home I usually favour red wine, G&T or Rum and Coke. When I go out, beer is the standard, but mojitos and other fancy drinks are common as well.

Surprised how many people mentioned Jameson. I much prefer Johnny Walker when it comes to cheap whisky. Although when I do go for whisky I usually go for something fancier and smoky. Lagavulin is a favourite (and Ron Swanson Approved™).

Anything with gin in it.

Anything with vodka in it.

Some things with rum in it.

Some things with tequila in it.

Long Island Iced Tea.

I don't drink nearly as much since I started getting free bottles of gin and vodka because I would be the world's biggest alcoholic.
