I don't mind coke, but it has to be Coke coke and full fat, diet Lemonade is the only diet drink I can't taste the pretend sugar. Actually the Irn Bru isn't bad but I don't use it as a mixer.
If on rum and if available I will buy the caffeine free coke but it's not great, just doesn't wake me up.

It's a fairly new thing for me, last 4 or 5 years.
Not touched it since a night in my late teens when I nicked the bottle of Gordon's from my parents drinks cabinet and drank it with OJ.
I preferred sweeter drinks like Rum but my taste has changed as I have aged, I prefer bitter an G&T fits that bill perfectly.

Maybe that's why I like being on here ;)

I still like a rum but too much coke on a session makes me wake up earlier than my hangover needs me to be
I drank white rum as a young man, but it makes me very belligerent and aggressive.
Luckily by the time that I got to that stage wet paper bags were in no danger.
I don't touch it now.

Currently have a bottle of Brecon Botanicals on the go, very nice it is too. Quite fragrant and all that, goes especially well with the Mediterranean tonic we thought we'd try rather than the normal or slimline. On sale at Tesco £19 for 70cl

Oh dear, none of this left. We both struggled yesterday after a heavy night Saturday. Still a bit bleugh! now

I think Gin is disgusting.Elephant dung could only improve the taste.

It should really be 'T&G' as you put the bigger ingredient first, unless I'm missing something. I think Billy Joel got it right unlike his marriage choice.
