My drink selection is based off these things:
- Weather.
- The mood I'm in.
- The vibe of the setting or group I'm with ( this means a lot.)
When it comes to warm weather, my GO TO wine is a full body, full oak, buttery Chardonnay.
If I'm in a fancy setting I usually aim for a Dirty Martini (straight up,) or an Espresso Martini (*Warning* if you are caffeine sensitive don't order them too late OR ask for decaf.) Espresso Martinis double as a great dessert cocktail if you're not in the mood for something heavy, but still LIVE for something sweet.
I also love a well-made classic vodka soda, but tend to dress it up in the summer with fruit or herbs.
And yes, i love a cold beer on a hot day at a baseball game, and always try to sample new ones from the tap.
Happy sipping!
