suegha Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Time, darling. And lots of water. He's right! The only effective cure for hangover is rehydration. You can have some fruit juice as well for sustainence. Don't do the 'curer' method, as adding more alcohol will only make it worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayo Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 (edited) Last night I drank Don Quixote 151 (powerful stuff, brit, you know the flavour), mixed with Don Quixote Gold, Don Q Silver, (an ounce of each), in a glass, touch of lime juice, Sugar rimmed glass, and a few crushed mint leaves. (a variation of a Cuban Mojito). Took so bloody long to make, I switched to beer and drugs after that. Edited June 4, 2006 by kayo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering what today has been like, probably the first of many. Josh, why is a scottish name brand going around with spanish writing? Can´t they just call it the Big Slosh or something? Anyway, save me a shot. I should be there by the time it is about 30 years old. (Does that make it a Bigger Slosh?) Regards, your friendly english bartender in Guatemala.

TRIPxCORE Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I am not a lush like the rest of you! One can usually find me drinking Diet Mountain Dew, which isn't available in Thailand. When I go to LOS, I really miss it! Since I dont drink, it's always soda for me and the variety in Thailand is very poor. Why can't they get more kinds of soda there?

I'm unsure why they use spanish writing, I can tell you that I've been enjoying this particular single malt for quite some time now (its extremely smooth). I know that one of their 15yr old malts is called "Solera Reserve" ... So maybe its a theme. I've found the page that will explain all: http://uk.glenfiddich.com/shop/prod_gran_reserve_21.html It is a fantastic drop and I'm quite happy to share with anyone else who enjoys a good selection of single malts.

Why can't they get more kinds of soda there? if yer talkin' about club soda I've found Chang and Singha to be acceptable...they even stay fizzy when left open overnight...(formaldahyde?) as for other fizzy drinks, yeah...the choice is limited, no diet anything. Although the Suphan tescos has A&W root beer and Dr Pepper which is a treat...they also both go OK with Sang Som... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autonomous_unit Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Tutsiwarrior, haven't you seen either of Coke Light or Pepsi Max in your stores? They are widely available around BKK, and both are "diet", I would say. I prefer the Pepsi Max... it has a much stronger flavor than a western Diet Pepsi, such that it almost tastes like a regular cola. As for amber liquids, I already reported on my wheat beer obsession in the silly minimart thread. I am not sure I could take much distilled spirits here in the tropics, assuming I wasn't mixing it with Gatorade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaipwriter Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Whilst currently sunning myself on holiday in the Uk i am mostly slurping cans of 500ml Stella Artios. Only one more week of this horrible brew then back to Issan and Leo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr auto...beware comparing the lush display at BKK supermarkets with the meager offering at the smaller provincial outlets... no, no diet drinks on offer that I can see at the Suphan tescos an' I'm diabetic an' worry about my healt'...can't even get diet coke at the KFC at the food court upstairs one despairs when one retires to de slow life ob de provinces then to find their blood sugar goin' up by the minute due to the reduced facilities... sheeeesh... (although, I have to admit that I haven't been to the Suphan tescos in two years due to recent commitments in Bahrain and VN...could be that there is presently a gentler and more wholesome arrangement on offer these days...)

I find that quite unusual that you haven't seen any diet soda in LOS. I know you're in the provinces, but everytime I accompany my wife home to Udon, the local Tops there even has diet Coke for sale. They are sold in single cans only, no bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doan know what it is but when I come down to BKK after some months in Suphan ah's like a dyin' man lookin' for oxigen...my only sustenance in Suphan is being kept like royalty by the family when between jobs... when on return from amphur Suphan with a load ob groceries from tescos we stop just outside where we live on the highway and get some khao man gai and beer and I look over the featureless rice paddy aspect and wonder 'what's so special about this place and <deleted> am I doin' here?' it's just cause it's home...

kayo Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'm not really drinking Zacapa Rum At this moment, but if I were to be drinking right now I would be drinking Zacapa Rum, because Zacapa Rum is an Incredible Rum From Zacapa Guatemala. No, Rather I am posting this zacapa post on this drinking thread with all together far too much use of the word Zacapa in order to attempt to change the google advertising on this page from two horribly well know beverages to that of rums, liquours, spirits, and maybe one or two of zacapa rum.

Old Croc Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 (edited) Warning: If you are a wine buff you may not wish to know the following. The other day at my usual Friday lunch with mates, where we like to indulge a little, we were joined by a very rich acquaintance who insisted on picking up the bill and providing the wines. The five of us consumed 2 magnums (1.5 litres ea) of 1998 Penfolds 707 Cab Sav and two bottles of 2002 Mosswood Cab Sav. I've since checked the retail price of the wines and they would be valued between $A1100 and $A1200 in total. A very pleasant lunch, and I went home without spending a cent on the day.
