what to drink to seem sophisticated

[Vehn]

I love vodka tonic but everyone calls me a girl when I get one.. whatever.

[testaaja]

Vodka, on the rocks.

[DWarrior]

It probably won't matter as long as you take out a wad of hundreds to pay for it.

[jaymajik]

Cognac and ginger ale FTW

[Rootabager]

As a bartender, I personally consider jack/rum/whatever and coke to be girly. Or at least college freshman type amateur-drinker drinks.

Thank you. Jack and Coke/Rum and Coke is for rednecks or amateur drinkers.

As for the OP, if you really think women are concerned with what you're drinking then chances are you aren't very successful with them. Just be yourself, go with what you like. Beer is fine, Gin or Vodka and Tonic is fine, scotch and water is fine, just don't get cute and order something like a Cosmo or Appletini.

A decent beer is fine... mixed drinks are for girly-men. Sam Adams or Heineken or Amstel Light or something quality IMO. The only acceptable mixed drink is a James Bond style martini and unless you're supercool you can't pull that one off.

A james bond martini should not be considered a mixed drink.

The amount of vermouth is so small you could not pick it up with a chemistry set [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

That said. Pure abseinth will get you laid trust me

Drink whatever - even a fruit flavour 'girly' cocktail will often have girls your with asking to try it.

Drink whatever you want and like - girls really wont judge you on what it is unless its something REALLY gay, like a semen and coke or soemthing.

Fwiw, tried my first White Russian at our local last time was out, quite liked it though a milk based drink with ice was a little odd.

To suggest vod and coke etc is girly is pretty retarded.

Also, you cant go wrong with beer at any point.

Btw, when im with friends drinking whilst watching films etc #9night in basically) we drink wine often - yet when i was at one of the classyer clubs round here a year ago i ordered a bottle of wine (same brand to what we often get) and they thought it was pretty gay.

Often the rules of what is and isnt acceptable is really stupid and subjective. Also, i once ordered Gin and Lemonade (which is one of my fave drinks) back home and the barmaid thought that was a little girly.

Cliffnotes, who [censored] cares what others think, drink what you like. If in doubt, experiment - nothing is more fun than ordering a few different things over a night and trying them out to see what you like
