5 drinks to get to know me

tagged by @glorious-spoon and @faejilly ! thanks!!

1. vodka soda, wedge of lime. the classic, dependable, tasty, and the least likely to leave me with a hangover. (fun fact, I started specifying a wedge of lime rather than just "with lime" because when I lived in amsterdam, they would serve it with lime cordial, which I detest. I've mostly kicked the habit of asking for it like that, but every once in a while it comes roaring back)

2. champagne. the best part about being a grownup is realizing that champagne is not just for special occasions. it's for whenever I want it.  (yes prosecco is delicious and an amazing bargain but champagne is my love)

3. coffee (hot) with half & half. my love and beloved, the reason I get out of bed every day. it's not just about the caffeine, it’s about sitting on couch by myself in silence with a delicious hot beverage while I read tumblr like the morning paper

4. dirty martini with blue cheese olives. it's a drink and a meal and a forever friend. I prefer it served on the rocks. keeps it cold and less potential for me to spill it all over myself

5. cosmopolitan - don't let the sugary premade mixes fool you, a real cosmo is tart and strong and delicious and just a tiny bit sweet. pale pink or gtfo. for this drink, I'm willing to risk knocking over a coupe glass like the hot mess I am.

(honorable mention for green tea lattes and chai lattes, which i go feral for but i cannot bring myself to down a huge cup of whole milk on the reg. and they just aren't the same with any other milk option)
