    Cooking With Liquor

    I wasn't aware there was such a thing as cooking without liquor. Just kidding of course but it is true that I use wine in most of my meals. Red wine for red meat and white wine for white meat. Beer is also an option with BBQ stuff and Cognac is very good for some sweets as is Rum.

    Booze .... On A Plane?

    I have witnessed a guy getting on a flight tipsy and getting wasted on the flight. He was a Hungarian idiot and I actually knew him from my work. He was bothering the whole plane and it was terrible, even more when the flight ended up being not so pleasant and the turbulent period was quite...

    Pálinka?

    I drank Palinka while I was working with Hungarians on Malta and they brought to celebrate something. It was around Christmas I think. It is basically a fruit based brandy which is called Rakija in Serbia, where I'm from. I was used to drink Rakija and when I tried their Palinka I felt nothing...

    What Is Your Regular Drink?

    I like to try out stuff but beer is always a good choice. Especially dark one. I love the fact that I don't have to think too much about this. Sometimes I do and I take some cocktail or whiskey, maybe wine or some cider but it is usually beer. It happened several times that I wasn't satisfied...

    Favorite Non-alcoholic Beverages

    I never really thought about this seriously. I like water of course but I think the question was more about drinks that are made of other things like cocktails or punches. I like the root beer or a ginger beer. I made it once and I used a recipe from Jamie Oliver's book. It was great actually...

    Do You Drink With People Or Alone?

    Depending on the mood I do both. Although I have to say that I haven't drink for some time now. It's funny though. I used to drink beer regularly and now it's a slow period for me. I have to get back to my old habits. I just lost track of the time, it's been a while. I have to ask my girls of...

    What Are You Watching?

    I was watching Warehouse 13 and I loved it. Right now I am continuing the trend and I'm watching Eureka which is a similar show. I do not remember I felt so bad after a show ended since I watched Fringe. Warehouse is a warm and interesting show and you can learn a lot actually. Just be careful...

    Beers And Pubs

    I think that every drink has it's place and crowd. I drink beer when I am happy, when I want to go and have fun and I'm in good spirit. ON the other hand, when I am moody, sad or just feeling blue I like to drink wine or some stronger spirit like whiskey. In bars, with friends, I usually take beer.

    Beer Garden Events

    I have been to a Beer Fest. That was the actual name hence the capital letters. It was great until midnight. After midnight they told me I was having a great time. :) Beer garden sounds very nice and I would like to have that experience one time. It was never organized in Serbia or to be more...

    Ice Cold Beer In Under A Minute

    My preferred method is getting a 12 pack in a rack or something like that and put it in a near by stream that is ice cold anyway. This means we are somewhere in the nature which is a practice that we really love here in Serbia...

    If You Could Have A Beer With Anyone...

    A lot of people come to my mind. I would like to have a beer with my grandfather who died when I was 4 years old and it's like I kind of missed out on a relationship that people have with their grandparents. I would also like to have one with Jim Morrison and some other great people that are not...

    Best Beer For Burgers?

    I kind of like all beers with burgers except dark beer. Have no idea why but it's like that. As for the brands I have no favourite for this and to be honest I have been on a vegetarian diet for more than two years and it's only beer for me these days. :) Nevertheless, I am a good cook, actually...

    Cool Beer Cooler

    These are classy indeed. I would like to make them a bit more to my taste or to fit my house. I had a small cooler or just a small fridge but it was so nice. It's too bad I had to sell it. It was a leftover from my previous business. I got it from a distributor of a famous Serbian energy drink...

    Drinking Instead Of Eating

    Okay, this is just senseless although I like beer I also like cooking but even if I didn't I wouldn't be able to drink instead of eating. :) I would faint or something. What I do is I drink while eating or after my meal. It really is soothing for my biorhythm.

    Are Cigars Less Damaging Than Cigarettes?

    They should be less damaging and not because of the nicotine amount but because they do not have additives in them while cigarettes have a lot of them along with a high percentage of tar but I think I have read somewhere that the tar produced in cigars is more harmful than that one produced in...

    Where Do You Rank Jim Beam?

    I am not very picky so Jim Beam is actually good stuff for me if you consider the fact that I do not really have money to buy the real good stuff like 15 years old Old Pulteney. Okay, I have money to buy it but I really think it is too much and in Serbia we have better stuff than whisky but I...

    When Did You First Start Drinking?

    I think it was on the prom night when I was 15. I drank some wine after it because on the party they only gave us sodas and some fruit juices. Anyway, we got some money and bought some booze, red wine to be precise. Nothing fancy but enough to roam around the city stopping the traffic in process.

    What Other Liquor Do You Prefer Besides Whisky And Beer?

    I really like wine and I even make my own because I have a vineyard. We usually take white type of grape Chardonnay or some other and make white wine and we make rakija (Serbian brandy) from the rest. Both are very good but rakija is just for the tough drinkers. It is a very strong spirit.

    Is Cider Grouped With Beers?

    One of the most important differences between the two is in ingredients. While beer is made from malted barley, cider is produced from apple juice or pear juice as I have seen lately. Cider, which is made from apple juice can be alcoholic as well as non-alcoholic. On the other hand, beer...

    What Is The Alcohol Content Of Your Favorite Beer?

    Beer in Serbia range from 4.5 to 7 % of alcohol share. I like something in the middle and that is around 5.5 %. The best beer with that percentage is Zajecarsko and Jelen is somewhere around it. I also like Amstel and of course my favourite beer Pilsner Urquel but I really do not know about...
