Dangerous Gin
I've been trying a few different brands lately. Just had a glass of Plymouth on ice. It's like sipping ice water.

This thread must have really caught on. We're having a tonic shortage here. I went to two stores & I bought the last available bottle today which was the store brand. The only thing left was diet tonic - ugh, gag.

I used to drink when I was a youngster and out of respect for my wife June I quit many years ago. She worried about me and was afraid I might become like her father. Her father was a drunk that beat her mother on a regular basis. Her father got so bad that it all finally all ended in a terrible disaster. June's youngest brother, Jimmy, was only 12 years old when he shot and killed their father with his shotgun while he was beating on their mother unmercifully early one morning when he came home drunk. It ruined her little brother's life but saved their mother and probably their older brother who had been getting beat on at times himself. No matter how much June and her 2 other brothers and 2 sisters tried to console him he was never the same after that. It was a terrible mess. Jimmy had all he could take and felt like somebody had to save his mom and everyone else so he did it himself.
Before June died she ask me to promise her I'd never drink and so far it's been nearly a year and I'm still keeping my promise.

I've attempted to savor a sip. Just couldn't aquire a taste for it. I don't know if it was the smell or the taste. Decided if I wanted a taste I could just chew on a pine tree twig.

That's almost worse!
I always thought it tasted like juniper berries, not pine.
