Okay, I feel like this is appropriate and I can finally honestly talk about alcohol.
What's your favorite drink? Or do you drink at all?
Quite honestly, I love just drinkin my rum straight. Captain Morgan silver spiced is my choice. Mmm. I love me some rum! I'm not much for mixing my liquor, but vanilla or coconut rum taste really good in cream soda.

I'm 27 and don't drink much (never really liked the taste of alcohol. Will choke down a glass of wine at a party if need be. Hate most beers), but one drink that I do like is pumpkin ale! The cinnamon and nutmeg and pumpkin tastes make it more than tolerable, which is good for me! Unfortunately, it's a seasonal thing, so I don't get it very often!

With all respect to the Cap'n, I like a nice vodka tonic or vodka and soda, though I feel like an old man when I ask for vodka and soda. If the bank account is supportive I'll go for a Brandy Alexander. I'll have to try this coconut rum and cream soda business. (Also, love the name Zombunnie!)

I just turned 21 last week so this is still exciting for me....
I adore rum! I don't like soda so mixed drinks really aren't my thing...but rum. Oh, rum. It is delicious!

My favorite drink is a Manhattan. I especially like Manhattans on the rocks, but I like them in a martini glass as well. I know that's pretty hardcore and old peopley, but I think they're delicious.

I'm a master of the Irish Car Bomb, but that's not very sippable and it's not really appropriate usually. I'll become an alcoholic off one of three drinks -- bailey's and coffee (amazing), orange rum and red bull (makes me happy), or Port (wine, only better). But a Guinness or a Mike's Lemonade is just faster and easier, which is more important for november.

I am a huge fan of rum. I also like hard cider, and lately I've taken to making homemade Irish Cream. Insanely good.
I will also drink just about anything, alcoholic or not, with coffee in it.

I've only drank all of three times: I had wine on my (21st) birthday, I had some sort of fruity rum drink at a bar with my friend (coconut rum mixed with... idk, orange/pineapple juice? something like that), and then I had a lot to drink on my other friend's 21st birthday (and that ended with me throwing up in a restaurant bathroom, so I am not eager to repeat that experience). Seeing as I've never had the same thing twice (with the exception of my friend's birthday, when we each had half of a six pack of "bitch beers"), I can't say that I really have a "favorite." The rum drink wasn't bad, really. And one of the drinks I had with my friend (I think the waiter said it was a Miami Haze? idk, we just had him bring us stuff because we had no idea what we were ordering) was pretty good, too.
I kind of want to try the rum and cream soda thing someone mentioned - sounds like it'd be right up my alley. I love cream soda. :D

I had something called a Black Pearl Rum Runner that was absolutely amazing. I also like frozen margaritas and such. Drink lots of "bitch beers" when I am just drinking socially. Just depends on my mood. Also, White Russians, Amaretto Sours, and Black Cherry Sours. Fuzzy Navels are good, too.
I can't really pick a favorite... Ah well.
Oh, and vodka is my vice.

The Captain is one of my favourites, personally. Although I've had to slow down with it a little lately thanks to some heart issues (by no fault of the Capt. I swear). Straight or with Coke, I can handle either.
That said, Pure Blonde usually makes it way into my fridge more than once.

Absinthe. Hands down best drink ever. And don't believe the myths. I've had a few of the legal American version and some of the "real" European kind and there's no difference. You don't hallucinate and you don't freak out and kill people. But you do get a pretty fantastic, lucid drunkeness. Really is a great drink for writers.
For more mainstream drinks, I dig me some Jack and Coke. I like whiskey in general. I like vodka. I like beer when I'm in the mood for it. I like almost everything.
What I do not like is rum. Rum drinks are too sweet for me. Maybe its because rum is made of sugar cane. I think it's gross. And so many rum drinks you can't even taste the alcohol. When I'm drinking an alcoholic beverage, I don't want them to hide it and make it seem like I'm drinking kiddie fruit punch. I need to feel it on my tongue.
I also can't handle jagerbombs. But just because I don't take caffine well. I can't have anything stronger then a Coke, caffine-wise before I start shaking and feeling like my skin is going to crawl off. A cup of coffee and I can't hold anything my hands are shaking so hard. Energy drinks, I just tremble. My best freind's boyfreind wanted to buy me a drink for my birthday and he got us a pair of jagerbombs and I didn't know what they were made out of (this bar served them mixed because people kept breaking the glasses). I didn't even feel the alcohol but I was twitching like junkie all night. Terrible.

Bailey's IN a hot chocolate? Oh my dieties, how come I've only discovered this now!! I love baileys, it's finally cold enough outside to drink it. In the summer I love Malibu and Lemonade or any spirit and lemonade really. My Nano drinks of choice will be white wine, usually Pinot Grigio, and Baileys over ice.

I'll drink anything and everything! But number one is definitely whiskey. Then rum, tequila, gin, wine and beer. Vodka... not so much. But I was only 17 when I tried it, so who knows?
I actually spent 90% of this summer in a drunken stupor... Not very proud of this, but at least I got it out of my system.
