Sooooo....what sorts of beverages would all y'all like to sip as we enjoy our yummy cigars? Since this the Cigar Sampling Salon falls on Cinco de Mayo, there's talk of whipping up some Mountain Margaritas! I'm thinking I'll bring some Patron or other premium sipping tequila, along with some port. Should be very nice with the cubanos! Oh...and some coconut rum would be nice, too! Name your favorite potion!

In the spirit of cigar smoking, I think I will have a 'Cuba Libre' 
Rum (Mount Gay Extra Old, but Mount Gay Eclipse will suffice)
Coke
Juice of 1 fresh lime

Cuba libre sounds refreshing! I like to take coconut rum and mix it with tequila and fresh lime, shake it in the martini shaker with plenty of ice! That is killer and so tasty!

I am sure it will have tequila in it! Maybe all I need is a shot glass, salt and lemons.

And remember...don't inhale!!! Let me know how it goes! Clover

just registered.... I'll have to bring a few of the cubans from the humidor. If I can get enough to share I will but the travels overseas have been limited lately and they were expensive in Scotland last week... Don't ever try and buy cigars in the UK, the taxes and exchange rate are murder!
See you on the porch.

thanks guys! been gone for a while and with lots going on at work no time to learn more about making a site...
oh and I saw lots of MINI's in Scotland. I think I anoyed the crap out of my friend who I took with me. Every time I saw one.."oooh look a MINI'....
I am surprised to say I saw a lot of MC's a few MC1's but a small handfull of MCS. With all the rage in Europe being fast little cars I do not understand why the MCS would not be a logical choice for so many.
Anyway.
