alcoholic beverages
Sunday, December 30th, 2007 06:29 pmI've determined that I seem to like liqueurs, aka cordials, in general. Some are easier to drink than others, probably due to lower levels of alcohol in them, but so far all the ones I've tried have tasted good or at least ok. Whereas wines taste like vinegar to me, and vodka (or was it gin?) tastes interesting but not like something that ought to be ingested, and rum and whiskey don't taste good, etc.
Liqueurs I've tasted so far, and the main flavor of each:
Tia Maria - coffee
Galliano - orange
Godiva (original) - chocolate
Chambord - black raspberry
Disaronno - apricot kernel (like almond)
Jaegermeister - herbs
Frangelico - hazelnut
I also have Midori (melon) and Tuaca (vanilla/citrus) which I have not tried yet. Mind you, I still can only drink a little bit of these at a time, but at least now I can say that there are some alcohols I like.

Tuesday, December 27th, 2005 04:33 pmYesterday did turn out to feel xmasy after all. I even discovered an alcohol that I can drink with an "mmm, this tastes good" reaction as opposed to "ew, vile, blech!"... Galliano liqueur. It's one of Forestfen's gifts though, so I shan't be drinking it up. My dad did send me some money as a gift; perhaps I'll use it to buy some other liqueurs just to see how they taste... Maybe I'll even be able to get myself drunk one of these days, and experience what that is like. heheheh.
