I love sarsparilla and found a Bundaberg Sarsparilla that is really very good.

Comes in a small brown stubby.

That is one of the best going for sure.

Their fizzy stuff bests their rum imho

"Primordial oozes" !!!!!

What an outrageous way to describe the scholarly discourse that this thread is renowned for.

I'm sure @Redleg will impose a stern penalty on you Goffy

The only ooze I know played over 250 games for us on a half back flank and is now one of our coaches.

I don't even know what primordial is, so no fine on this occasion.

Hate to admit this in public, but my favourite rum is Malibu, that of the coconut variety.

Do you do it with milk? Guilty pleasure!

A very popular version Mr Leg.

If it tantilises the tastebuds knock yourself out.

Fav cocktail on hols or summer months is ye old Pina Colada and Island Tea goes down pretty well.

I have yet to indulge in straight Malibu but it's no doubt been in a cocktail or two over the years as a mixer.

TRA is suggesting to add milk 🤔

What else is popular here?  Or are you we talking straight on the rocks?

*Apologies to Uncle in advance 😄

There is absolutely nothing better than a glass of frangellico , a strong short black coffee and some vanilla ice cream. 
 

or maybe just the frangellico !

Philistines , Mongols, barbarians at the front door ..... what is this thread coming to?

I have tried endlessly to add some refinement to this thread but , apparently, I have failed miserably.

I'll say it again. The only libation for a refined gentleman is .... of course Shiraz.

Follow Uncle Bitter's advice - you won't go wrong!

A good single malt scotch is without doubt better than any cheap, coconut sugar drink, even better than the young grape juice that some here quaff down

I rarely visit this thread, but honestly, enough's enough! Toughen up chaps, for god's sake! This ain't no '80's disco

Certainly keen on a dram of whisky or a gin and tonic!  Recently have been drinking apple cider when the companionship are not keen on spirits

Every Friday night currently starts with sparkling wine, given it is served to me free and is less disgusting then the cheap wines on offer

Yep, Philipines galore. Hey, my brother, have you heard of Nebbiolo and Sangiovese and the dreaded fey Pinot Noir? And, what the f is wrong with the Noble Cab Sav????

As some will know, I try to stay away from this thread but again find myself inextricably drawn back into it's web. The first confronting thing I read is mention of BBO followed by the highlighted question/statement. Dare I keep reading I ask myself. I don't know how to unassociate the two but I curse my vivid imagination.

Stuart Broad would have to be the uncoolest cricketer ever.

Stokes and Bairstow have both definitely head-butted someone in a pub at least once.

Jimmy Anderson will be 41 next month. He’s been playing Test match cricket for 20 years. How on earth does his back hold up?

 When will Travis Head 86 that awful moustache?

 I wish we had this level of commentary in footy. Kumar and Tubby are chef’s kiss.

Never mind me, just thinking aloud. 🙃
