You wouldn't be caught dead drinking a cosmo, but all your friends will be drinking these at your funeral.
11. Irish Car Bomb
Why is it manly?: What's manlier than going mano-a-beero with a pint of the world's thickest stout mixed with a shot of whiskey? Knowing that if you don't chug it fast enough, you'll be downing chunks of curdled Bailey's cream.
Recipe:
3/4 pint Guinness stout
1/2 shot Bailey's Irish cream
1/2 shot Jameson Irish whiskey
10. Kentucky Tea
Why is it manly:? You can get shot in the face by an Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms federal agent just for making this cocktail.
Recipe:
1 mason jar halfway full of moonshine
Fill the jar with branch water
9. Rusty Nail
Why is it manly?: I can't put my finger on exactly why, but there's something oddly macho about asking your girlfriend if she would like to sip on your Rusty Nail. Recipe:
¾ oz. scotch
¼ oz. Drambuie
8. Snake Bite
Why is it manly?: Anytime a drink is compared to a snake sinking its fangs into you and depositing venom in your bloodstream, chances are, it's probably pretty stiff. Basically it's straight up Yukon Jack, which has been known to make balls hairy. The only reason there's a dash of lime juice is so you won't get scurvy.
Recipe:
2 oz Yukon Jack liqueur
1 dash Lime juice
7. Jagerade
Why is it manly?: To be honest, I don't know if this is manly or just gross. Either way, a man can never get enough electrolytes.
Recipe: 8 oz chilled Gatorade energy drink
4 oz Jagermeister herbal liqueur
6. Gin and Juice
Why is it manly?: Snoop Dogg likes to drink this when there are bitches in his living room gettin' it on until six o'clock in the morning, so that has to be worth something. Gin and juice was also the morning cocktail of soldiers and officers in WWII. That's right, this is what you drank right before you killed a bunch of Nazis. You can't say that about Malibu and pineapple.
Recipe: 2 1/2 ounces Gin.
1 oz. orange juice.
Equal parts mind on your money and money on your mind
5. Nuclear Waste
Why is it manly?: This is the only thing Keith Richards drinks now. According to the man himself, ""Whiskey wasn't agreeing with me anymore. The old body couldn't take it. Brandy is a killer, and wine is best with food, so somehow I settled on this. Plenty of ice. Lovely." If it's good enough for Mr. Richards, it's good enough for this list.
Recipe:
2 oz. premium vodka
1 oz. Sunkist or any orange soda Plenty of ice
4. Tequila Sunrise
Why is it manly?:First off, it's a breakfast cocktail. And secondly, "2 measures tequila" is short for, "as much tequila as your glass will hold." It may look a little fruity but it's about as tropical as a back alley in Tijuana.
Recipe:
2 measures Tequila Orange juice
2 dashes Grenadine
3. The Original Sazerac
What makes it manly?: This cocktail takes the classic New Orleans recipe and adds—what else—a nice, healthy addition of Absinthe. Because if huffing rye whiskey doesn't make you a man, mixing it with mythical psychadelic liquor that tastes like cough syrup will make sure everyone knows you have a penis.
Recipe:
1 tsp Sugar
1-1/2 oz Rye whiskey
1 Dash Herbsaint, Pernod or Absinthe (to coat the glass)
2 dashes Peychaud bitters
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 Lemon peel twist
2. Martini
Why is it manly?: Well, it's pretty much straight alcohol, with just enough vermouth to remind you that you're not drinking disinfectant. Plus, James Bond drinks it, and he bangs lots of chicks and beats the crap out of dudes with names that describe a hideous disfigurement they have that also provides them with some sort of physical superiority.
Recipe:
2 1/2 oz Gin
1 1/2 tsp Dry Vermouth
1 Olive
1. Manhattan:
Why is it manly: You may say "it's got a cherry, nothing with a cherry is manly." Well, nibble on this: It's notorious for being the favorite drink of the Italian Mafia, who are notorious for killing people. I'm not saying killing somebody makes you a man, but it's probably not the best idea to call someone who just threw someone off a bridge a "cherry drinking pansy."
Sorry folks, you've just been Bamboozled!!! ..........
There's only one manly drink in the world. #1. Moonshine, a.k.a.Corn Liquor, a.k.a.White Lightnin', a.k.a. Poison. If you ain't had some, you ain't ..... well....had a mna's drink (Made By Real Men, For Real Men)
I think this might be one of the few people that understand the phrase "tounge in cheek".
Seriously.... to all you morons who thought this was a serious list, you should go out and try drinking a few Irish Car Bombs then top it off with a Cement Mixer and see how Manly you feel ;).
I mean my god, who would honestly use the fact that a few Mafia guys liked a drink to make it "manly"?
Lord, I'm a woman and those aren't the most manly drinks. Maybe manly if you're wearing Dockers and a Corona visor. In which fact, you're a boring, prefabbed shell of a "man", a term I use loosely. You're only drinking these stupid shots and drinks to impress your equally douchey, fraternizing friends. You're the kinda "man" we make fun of in our bars as soon as you darken the doorway. You, and the other 10 dudes you're hanging out with, all wearing different pastel colored Polo's. You look like an Easter basket, and you're drunk. Great.
A man should know his beer, know a bit about wine and enjoy one or more of the following: whiskey, scotch, bourbon. The brown liquors. He musn't drink these with mixers, if anything- on the rocks. Vodka and gin are lovely but please drink them in proper martinis or on the rocks, maybe with a splash and a dash of bitters. Non flavored vodkas unless we're speaking of the essence of citrus or juniper berries.
And hear hear to the Guinness comments. It may be a lovely beer, but it's by no means the figurehead of stouts. Mmm, Highlands Black Mocha Stout. Mmm, North Coast Old Rasputin.
While I'll agree with you for the most part- nothing beats a great neat scotch or a martini. I have to disagree with you on the stouts. Guinness in it's own right is a figurehead of a dry stout- I like Murphy's more though- it's a better dry stout. Old Rasputin is a great Imperial Stout, and Highlands Mocha is a good example of a American Stout, but I would take Cadillac Mountain Stout over it. But even though they are all stouts comparing these sub-styles are liking comparing apples, oranges, and bananas. Plus most stout these days don't hold a candle to their ancestors which usually had 7-9% a/v. They were known as stout porters then shortened to stouts.
So even though I like your examples and your name drops- but lumping them together is like lumping red wine into one style.
Yeah, I totally agree with you on every point you made! I bartend in a college town and the amount of frats boys in pastel polos that ordered sex on the beach last night made me sick! I mean, it's frickin' friday night, we have a half off scotch special, learn how to drink.
Great advice from someone who has no idea of what they are talking about.
Claiming someone should like whiskey, scotch, or bourbon is downright redundant. Scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey, but thanks for showing you have no knowledge of your booze.
"A man should know his beer" ??? WTF - beer is about the LEAST manly drink out there - and I hope to hell you are not referring to AMERICAN beer - comparable to a glass of water. Actually, even American liquor is widely considered tame - unless you make it (or obtain it) illegally.
I'm a dude and I've gotta say that AT has got this right. All you guys who are blasting her for what she said are just feeling insecure about themselves now that they've gotten called out by a chick.
All these drinks are pretty girly. Irish car bomb with Bailey's in it? Please. At least do it some justice and drop a full shot of whiskey into there if you MUST ruin a good Guiness. Also AT is absolutely correct that Guiness is hardly the best stout out there, nor is it the thickest as the writers of this article seem to think. Try a Samuel Smith's oatmeal stout and tell me that Guiness is the thickest beer you've ever had. Hell, there are porters that are thicker than Guiness. Don't get me wrong, great beer, I really enjoy it on occasion, but come on, at least know your shit before talking about it.
Also, to whoever said that a guy drinking JD and Coke knows his whiskey? Right, JD is pretty close to the bottom of the barrel as far as mid-shelf whiskeys go. The only reason it gets so much recognition is because it has a good ad campaign. If it was really good you wouldn't need to mask its taste with a soft drink.
Are you sure you're not gay? I drink most of my whiskey neat... have been a whiskey drinker for 20 years. So I can safely say my palate for the drink is connosuier. JD is a mid-priced whiskey, but it is an excellent whiskey for it's price point. This is something that fails to register with you because you're exactly the type of person to follow some trend rather than your palate.
Again, another presumptuous jerkoff thinking he/she knows more about alcohol than the next guy. Did it ever occur to you someone drinking a Jack and Coke might like the taste of it?
yeah, i'm back again...Billius, i really wish you didn't hate yourself so much... if you are an american(which i am) making all these comments, i hate you. if not, i still hate you. time to bring back the pride. i say again, AT sucks. imports suck. as a matter of fact, you suck. shame on anyone reading this who thinks the beer they drink makes them any more special than the pile of shit they really are. be proud of who you are. i like drinking natural light with my friends and just fucking around. to AT and Billius i say this, go waste your money on shit while i enjoy my life drinking what you call "piss water" and having a good time. AT and Billius,make sure your close match before you leave the house...your wouldn't want to look like faggots now would you.
love, matt.
MATT, YOU SUCK DICK(FOR A LIVING). SOMEONE SHOULD PEROSNALLY COME STOMP YOU FOR LOVING NATURAL LIGHT. THATS NOT AMERICAN, THAT MEANS YOU ARE A SORRY ASS FUCKER WHO CANT AFFORD DECENT ALCOHOL.
"Piss water" sounds about right when talking about Natty Ice. If you're such an all American why don't you try some real GOOD American beers that are made by local breweries rather than big conglomerates who mass produce swill and don't really care about their craft?
Here's a good starter list of solid American breweries for you if you wanna be a real American beer drinker:
Dale's
Dogfish Head
Anchor Brewing
Wachusett
Stone
North Coast Brewing Company (AT actually mentioned one of their brews in her post, so much for her only being a fan of imports)
For more info you can peruse http://beeradvocate.com/ at your leisure. You might learn something and could start to work on that anger problem of yours. I know I'd be angry if I were drinking Natty Ice all the time...
Dale's isn't a brewery (though it's certainly a great pale ale) - It's made by Oskar Blues. They have other great varieties including Old Chub and Yella Summer Pils.
Hook and Ladder is a great craft brew for their somewhat limited variety. They also give back money to local firefighter burns centers. (I ran into one of their sales reps giving out samples at my local distributor)
Good God, woman. There's nothing more irritating than a presumptuous bitch that thinks she's got 9/10 of anything right. I doubt any man in a club drinking a Jack and Coke needs to learn how to drink whiskey.
Scotch and Bourbon are whiskeys. I agree with you in principle - the classic manly drink is bourbon on the rocks before you make your first million, and scotch on the rocks afterwards. But saying that someone should drink either bourbon, scotch, or whiskey is like saying someone should drive either a BMW, a Mercedez, or a car.
of course it takes a woman to tell a man how to act. AT, you sound like a real bore. i feel sorry for your friends. you know what makes a real man, doing what he wants and not caring about anyone else. and p.s...imported beer sucks.
My choice would be the Negroni, basically a Martini, but with added Campari and a slice of orange.
Original Negroni Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 oz gin
- 1 oz Campari
- 3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
Combine all ingredients in an ice filled shaker. Shake until well chilled and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a burnt orange. To make a burnt orange, cut about a 1 1/2 inch by 1 inch peel off a ripe navel orange. Be sure to get just the skin and as little of the pith as possible. Holding the orange peel between thumb and index fingers with skin facing out, hold a lit match over the glass and with the orange peel about an inch away from the flame squeeze the peel quickly and firmly between your fingers. When done correctly, a burst of flame will come from the oils being released from the peel leaving an aroma and adding a note of orange to the cocktail. Simply drop the twist in the drink.
Ok so the dude drinks white russians and it really should be on the list just for that. He's The Dude for fucks sake.
After that whatever happened to a good old fashioned Whiskey Sour. It's whiskey, it's sour, it comes in a real glass not some poncey cocktail glass and 99.9% of women won't touch it. And it's still a classic.
I'm pretty sure that his dudeness could care less whether anyone thinks his drink of choice is manly or not. He just really, really likes half and half.
This list is weak, I will only agree with the car bomb, the rusty nail, moonshine and the gin and juice, the rest of that crap sucks. When I was bartending, real men drank things with 2 ingridients, scotch and X, rum and X, whiskey and X, if ur not drinking that then have a beer and a shot and shut it.
manhattans are great. I've never met a girl who would dare touch one, even with that cherry tempting them. I wish they weren't served in that fruity glass though-- it definitely does tarnish its manability.
"irish car bomb" - that's not a cocktail. maybe in america it is but in ireland( at least in dublin) a carbomb is just dropping a shot of anything into your pint( of guinness) and downing it.
The #1 manly drink is brought to you by Krayzie Bone from Bone Thugs'N'Harmony.

And I quote: "Gimme some Gin; gimme some Hen. Nah, just gimme'm both and I'll mix'm on in. Who wanna take a lil' sip of this Syn? Let me get'cha twisted man."
...Baby couldn’t handle his drinkies… So sad. Maybe if you invested in a pair of testicles instead of opting for the cock enhancement surgery, you wouldn’t have had such a pathetic life...
I'd like to see you in about 10 years, "anonymous". The kind of drinking you do will rot your brain in no time flat... But then I'm sure you've already had those moments where you promised God that you'd never drink again if he'd just make it all go away.
I don't think I've ever had a single drink on this list - my old man (when he drank a cocktail) drank whiskey cocktails in a rocks glass. I remember the first time I went to the bar with the old guy, he ordered two of the usual, and I've been drinking the same thing at the same bar ever since.
Bourbon, bitters, and a twist of lime - seem to recall it was an awfully popular cocktail among the war vets who all worked up at the refinery on 12 hour shifts while the wives stayed home and took care of the house.
Manly? I dunno, but some of those guys are in their 70s and 80s now, and still nobody fucks with them in their bar.
Findlandia is vodka, last time I checked. Vodka is 60 percent ethanol, so you could be drinking petroleum and not know the difference. Stay in school genius, maybe you'll replace some of the brain cells you've lost.

Hey bartenders, I have a deal for you: Stop making my martini's dirty (unless I ask), and I promise not to order 4 Mojitos at 11pm on Saturday night!
February 14th, 2009 at 10:28 am
Thanks!!! Someone realizes that ordering mojitos in bulk in a packed bar is a sure fire way to piss the bartender off! Take a lesson from this guy.

...Baby couldn’t handle his drinkies… So sad. Maybe if you invested in a pair of testicles instead of opting for the cock enhancement surgery, you wouldn’t have had such a pathetic life...
I'd like to see you in about 10 years, "anonymous". The kind of drinking you do will rot your brain in no time flat... But then I'm sure you've already had those moments where you promised God that you'd never drink again if he'd just make it all go away.
See you at the meetings.

some of the list is suspect, but i totally agree with the top 2 drinks.
and anyone who rips on a manhattan needs to go back and sit at the kiddie table and play 'go fish' and finish their zima.

I don't think I've ever had a single drink on this list - my old man (when he drank a cocktail) drank whiskey cocktails in a rocks glass. I remember the first time I went to the bar with the old guy, he ordered two of the usual, and I've been drinking the same thing at the same bar ever since.
Bourbon, bitters, and a twist of lime - seem to recall it was an awfully popular cocktail among the war vets who all worked up at the refinery on 12 hour shifts while the wives stayed home and took care of the house.
Manly? I dunno, but some of those guys are in their 70s and 80s now, and still nobody fucks with them in their bar.

"Vodka is for sorority girls."
Excuse *me* Palooka, but I drink shots of Finlandia, straight outta the freezer.
Fie on ya!

Findlandia is vodka, last time I checked. Vodka is 60 percent ethanol, so you could be drinking petroleum and not know the difference. Stay in school genius, maybe you'll replace some of the brain cells you've lost.
