Best mixed drink is a proper Manhattan made with Straight Rye whiskey. If you can't find Rye, use Canadian which usually is mostly Rye anyway. If you use Bourbon or Scotch, it ain't a proper Manhattan and it just ain't right.

Though I prefer it on the rocks with the cherry in it:

Don't need the black tie and diamond cufflinks, of course.

 

If you're a gin man (or woman) try a Gin and Tonic or Martini with this:

Jameson Special Reserve 12yo whiskey - try that one!
:love:

But with Ginger Ale? Oh well to each his own. I like it in coffee and in a little tumbler with one ice cube.

Got a bottle of the 12 year as a house warming gift.

 

Oddly enough, I prefer the standard Jameson.

Whiskey and soda or whiskey and ginger ale are the mixers I drink most of the time. I quite like a vodka and tonic or gin and tonic - Hendrick's ftw - if the weather's warm.

 

I might on occaision have a Manhattan or a Mojito (:facepalm:), but I normally avoid cocktails.

Oh yeah, forgot gin+tonic.

Mixing whiskey/rum with cola/7up is pretty dumb, imo - tastes like {censored} (only exception is apple juice).

 

As for whiskey, Jameson is pretty good neat, Ballantines I didn't enjoy that much, JD was good with apple juice. Dunno about other stuff, never had a chance to try it.
