A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions


Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.

Depends on the Gin, I quite like Drumshanbo neat. And Gin and Tonic is my go to drink.

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'll add Gin and Tonic. I've tried a lot, anywhere from homemade with supposedly good gin, and at expensive bars. It's just a shit drink.

It is greatly improved with lemon instead of lime, but the garnish is unlikely to change your mind by itself.

Don't drink anymore but loved me some neat gin in my time. The more juniper the better. St. George's Terroir and Never Never Triple Juniper were my poisons of choice.

Tastes exactly like I would imagine tree sap would taste.

[–] kersploosh@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

More for me. I sip it straight.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

You and me both

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Is it supposed to taste like Pinesol? Because that's all I could taste the first and last time I drank it straight.

[–] BurgerBaron@quokk.au 1 points 1 month ago

Gin is the only hard liquor I like strangely enough. I think because it's "dry" and doesn't coat my mouth like rum or vodka, both of which I find absolutely disgusting without exception.
