Poll question: If you have "hard" liquor in your home, where do you keep it? |
|
I mean the scotch, tequila, rum, vodka, gin, etc.
???

5. I considered excluding vodka from this poll, because |
|
I know many people keep it in the freezer, and probably most of those voting would have stuff other than vodka. :shrug:

9. unless you like it on ice, no, I don't think so |

Mrs. V. is quite fond of Macallan's scotch. She'd smack me if I suggested we put it in the fridge or she drink it over ice.
Me, I think it tastes like turpentine. Probably burns hotter than turpentine...
Mine is tequila. Lately, neat. Easier to use as cough medicine that way. You can't be running to slice a lime when you're hacking up a lung.

7. but no, apparently you keep polar bear puppies in your hands |
|
how do you drink?
how can you expect to be a responsible polar bear puppy when you're drinking?
and how can you drink with polar bear puppies :hic: cubs in your hands?

8. Vodka in the freezer, the rest on a top shelf in one of the kitchen cabinets |
|
Not really a special cabinet - just the one where I had space the first time I had a bottle that had to go somewhere...

We keep our hard liquor in an ordinary kitchen cupboard!
It's very convenient to my husband's bar sink......:shrug:
And it's out of my way when I'm cooking!
It really works for us.....

28. My bottle of Captain Morgan sits right next to me. |
|
Seriously. It's just sitting by my feet next to my computer chair. It's always there. I'll go through a fifth in two weeks just casually drinking it. Sometimes I'll drink most of it in a night, those are amusing. No special place, certainly not hidden.

30. The hard liquor is in a cupboard... |
|
the wine in racks...although our kids are getting a little older it's probably time to invest in a locked cabinet. Not that I don't trust them, I'd just rather be safe than sorry. We have an assortment of "puckers" that are just too much like Kool-Aid.

32. I'm in the booze business - my house is full of the stuff |
|
I have a room downstairs that stays at a very consistent temp of around 50 to 55 degrees - perfect for storing wine so that's my wine cellar. I have a cabinet down there where I keep extra bottles of booze - the open bottles are upstairs sitting on the floor near my refrigerator - except for the vodka and tequila in the freezer.
And no, I'm not a drunk - I hardly ever drink (which is why I have about 125 bottles of wine - people keep giving them to me).

The rest in the cupboard above the fridge. Probably because that's where my parents kept it.

35. We've got this antique piece of furniture (not sure what to call it)... |
|
it looks like a nightstand or end table, but it folds out into a bar. I think it's from the Prohibiton era. Anyway, we keep all our booze on top of it.

don't drink much hard liquor. wine is in the wine rack, in the kitchen. i think there is a fifth of vodka in there. beer is in the beer fridge, which is upstairs, the grow-up lair.

|
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 02:40 PM by Rabrrrrrr
so the overflow goes in the pantry.
My dedicated cabinet is just the shelves above the stove, and only holds maybe 15-20 bottles.
The wine, of course, is in the wine rack.

44. Prior to this thread, I'd never heard of putting vodka in a freezer. |
|
Am I odd because I like my Grey Goose neat and warm?
And my alcohol is in a locking cabinet in my kitchen. With three kidlets in my home, one of whom is a curious pre-teen with a bad habit of caving to her friends peer pressure, the lock seemed like a good idea.

It's the best spot for storing wine, so we have a few cases in there.
The liquor stays in the kitchen cabinet, for fast, easy, and frequent access!

No connection there; I don't put liquor in coffee. Heck, I don't even drink coffee--but sometimes I keep a bottle of Kahlua or Amaretto for putting in milk.

It works because it keeps it all somewhere I can find it. Especially if I've had a couple and want one more. No, that's a joke. We don't do much hard-liquor drinking, but some friends do, so we keep it around. ;-)
