    Is that a champagne cognac? Does that mean it's like a fizzy brandy? I used to love a Hennesey back in the day before Brandygate

    I do like a proper Martini made with Belvedere vodka. Also don't mind a Mohito.

    Cocktails I can do... Like a White Russian, Strawberry Daiquiri isn't bad either, woo woo.

    That's what I drink through the day on holiday cos beer just gives me a headache lying in the sun.

    It is a champagne cognac, it's about the best I can afford, but no it's not fizzy
    I'm not an expert but I think it just means it's better than standard brandy/cognac.

    Grolsch!! Happy memories!!

    Once hooked with an american woman who's stupid hubby was off playing golf up at St Andrews. We knocked off bottle after bottle of Grolsch.

    OK, before you pour your next Creme de menthe, you should probably watch this, Bri.

    Stella is my standard lager and Moretti for when I'm feeling fancy.

    Not a cider drinker but I quite like the one Stella make, get through a few in the summer.

    Speaking of summer you can't beat a few strawberry daiquiris made with fresh fruit or an ice cold mojito when you're sweating your tits off on holiday.

    Really though I'm all about drinking spirits neat, whiskey and rum especially.

    To summarise:

    1. Whiskey
    2. Rum
    3. Stella

    That went over my head mate. I don't really like Crème de menthe. I like Gins, Bourbons and strong polish larger.

    Ha I never knew until I got the bill, we'd just arrived from the airport and I ordered lunch and just said to bring me a bottle of beer without looking at the drinks menu.

    Was just a tease about the Creme de menthe thing mate...it's the Girly man skit from Sat Night Live. Just gutter humor. It's used all the time over here. Meant to be in good fun.
