Poll question: Alcohol question for the Lounge:
Edited on Sat Aug-30-08 10:01 PM by KC2
I've given my body a 48 hour break from what I call my old age medicine so I can drink alcohol. But I craved orange juice earlier tonight, so I drank two big glasses of it. Hang on... I'll get to my question.

Here it is: Which of the following drinks would be least likely to upset my stomach, after all that orange juice?

Oh, and before you say it, I know... maybe I should have had something in my orange juice. But I didn't have any champagne and I hate Vodka!

Yeah... I'm bored and my husband hasn't come home yet. Oh, so that means I probably shouldn't drink all of his beer!

1. Campari and orange juice on the rocks
tastes just like grapefruit juice... and good for the digestion.

or just Campari on the rocks with soda and a twist.

12. Well, orange juice doesn't do that to me-- thankfully
But it can upset my stomach if I don't watch it.

I love the stuff, though!!

13. Too late...

Already settled for Single Malt Scotch Whiskey (maybe not the wisest choice, eh?). My husband seems to have hidden the fine liquor from me this trip! lol

14. the acidity of the wine on top of the OJ would be a stomach bomb...
...for me. Your mileage may vary, of course.

19. After all the OJ, I don't think your next choice matters
all that acid will be rough on most people's stomachs.
