My favourite drink is Pernod, which everyone else shuns. I've never actually been to France. It was the first proper drink I had. I was 13, and this one drink made me drunk. It was quite amusing really.
The only drink I've actually had abroad in that sense was Jägermeister, which I remember drinking in Austria (not quite its homeland, but close enough). I only drink it rarely, and it used to be even more rare, because I reserved it for special occasions like jiggering to other countries (which I don't do on a regular basis, and not sure that I even want to).
And when they say "don't mix your drinks, it'll get you ruined" all I hear is "mix your drinks, it'll get you ruined! Faster!"
Also, Kopparberg is ok, though not wonderful. But it's hard to find a decent cider. We all know what utter piss Strongbow and Blackthorn are, but it seems not to be so widely known that Magners is almost worthless.
