You can't figure out what you and your friends like to drink so ATOT is supposed to know?
Rum is always a solid choice, lots of things you can do with it.
I'd suggest getting vanilla and/or coconut rum and mixing it with Dr. Pepper.
He said, "strictly adults."
He said he was looking for something different. If I was going, I'd drink beer and/or Jack & Cokes all weekend.
When I drink, that is my main mixture, but something like rum and coke.
My wife does not drink too much, so I am going to ask her about some of the suggestions posted here.
Whiskey-based honey liqueurs are the big new thing. Jack Daniels has Tennessee Honey, Wild Turkey has American Honey, Seagram's 7 has Dark Honey, Bushmill's has a honey whiskey... It's gotten a little out of hand. I will say, I had a bottle of the Wild Turkey American Honey, and it's really easy drinking, although super syrupy. You basically feel like you're drinking a thin honey. That's the only time I can recall finishing a fifth of anything on my own... and I wasn't even hung over the next day, which was a huge shock given how sugary it was. But again, it's basically just like drinking honey, which is fine in certain circumstances, but I think would be a horribly unpleasant experience on a nice day at the beach, so you probably should pass on that.
How about a couple bottles of chardonay or cabernet? Any wine drinkers in the group?
please note the qualifier, "if there will be chicks..."What are you twelve? Adults don't drink that shit.
Best bet is to probably not bring ANY drinks.
Seems like a good idea at first, until people get drunk/act stupid and suffer the next day/that night.
I agree with you about a fine liquor (and the two you mentioned are delicious), but part of the point of drinking at the beach is to feel refreshed. There's a lot of sand and salt and it can make you thirsty very quickly, especially if you're doing anything active. If you're drinking straight rum or tequila to quench your thirst, you're doing it wrong. You need a selection of drinks that you can drink a fair amount of without getting completely plastered. That's the beauty of mixed drinks; they're cold and refreshing in addition to having a nice alcohol kick.Personally I can't stand mixed cocktail sweet drinks. If I wre planning a drinking weekend, I'd get a good rum like flor de cana 7 year or higher. Or a good tequila like milagro anejo. Good liquor is meant to be drunk with ice only. When you get cheap liquor, then soda etc... etc... is needed to mask the flavor.
