I guess I should have said my Hemingway rule....Any drink liked by Hemingway is automatically excluded from any girly drink lists.

Ah, I see.

But we can all agree that the OP wears a skirt and squats to pee, right?

Lemon Drop

1 ounce Vodka (Citrus-flavored)
1 ounce Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Sugar



It practically comes with a vagina.

never heard of it as a drink. Here if you order a lemon drop you will get absolut citron with a lemon half dipped in sugar on the side. Take shot. Suck lemon.

Maybe it is a regional thing, but I've never seen one served the way you describe.

Maybe it is a regional thing but I've never heard of it the way originally described either. Adding the lemon juice does make it kinda girly. I've always just had it as chilled vodka with a lemon slice with sugar. I always considered it one of the more manly shots (or at least one of the shots most likely to get you fvcked up quickly) because it's basically straight vodka.

If you want to get fvcked up in a hurry just man-up and shoot 151 or something.

the drink itself, as stated, isn't girly. saying the name however, esp ordering out loud at a bar, is grounds for man status revoking. It's close to a mint julep (except for the less manly spirit), which as we all know isn't girly (the bourbon factor).

men drink rye whiskey and rubbing alcohol.

girls drink wine coolers and think martinis should contain vodka and some sort of ridiculous fruit flavoring.

There's a fine line between wanting to get fvcked up quickly and wanting to end up on the floor drooling all over myself or starting a fight w everyone I see. Trust me, I've crossed the line on many occasions.

Here's what I've always thought:

Less girly
Straight liquor
Liquor w/some dilutor
Liquor w/some sweet dilutor
Liquor w/some sweet, fruit-flavored dilutor
Liquor w/some sweet, fruit-flavored dilutor and actual fruit or an umbrella
More girly

yeah...

if you did a shot of vodka by itself it'd be manly. if you did it then raced for a sugar-coated lemon then you must have gotten some sand in your vagina.

You did not just insult vodka. :frown:

/lays bloody axe on table, a la Ukranian guy in Italian Job

Right?

I understand that you've been lied to for many years, and it's not entirely your fault. But really, don't drink clear liqour. Try something that doesn't come in an assortment of fruit flavors. It's good for you.

The healing can begin.

What does drinking vodka have to do with fruit flavors? You can mix crap in any alcohol :roll:


I was referring to the fact that you can buy it already flavored. But you're right, it loses because it is clear and inferior, the citron is just a further weakening of a broken product.


you knocking gin too? fvcking balls (or lack there-of). you calling ray charles less of a man for drinking gin and coffee every morning? for shame....

It is acceptable to consume margaritas under appropriate conditions.

1) In the SW US or Mexico on a warm day

2) At the beach

3) When all you have left is crappy tequila and you don't want to end up with your head in a toliet for the next 3 hours because you decided to do shots

In case you were unaware; a real martini has nothing to do with vodka. It is gin poured into a glass previously laced with dry vermouth. So, it's straight gin. With olives and olive juice (if you like 'em dirty).

add to the list of girliness: anything containing redbull.

It really is a shame that gin is little more than excess Pine-sol production with the color removed.

If I'm at a bar, I drink Jack and Coke usually. I sometimes order a Tom Collins, and occasionally a Tequilla Mockingbird (just because I like the name.) I'm the only guy I've ever heard of who orders Tequilla Mockingbirds, but I don't care.


If I'm at home, it's scotch neat.
