Default Popular Cocktails of TV

Wonder what kind of cocktails the Froggies are drinking in TV? And at which joints the best are available? Would the first choice be a Dry Martini or Manhattan? Am I bringing northern tastes to the south? Would it be Mohito, Mint Julep, or Sangria? A cool Gin Tonic or Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary from 10 a.m? A Marguarita or Daiquiri? I wouldn't mind a Planter's Punch or Pina Colada under a grass schack. It's always 5 o'clock in TV.

One of our Sunday morning golfers brings a Bloody Mary in a thermos. He always plays better after 3 holes.

Not all the froggies drink alcoholic beverages. You can drink whatever your heart fancies! Whatever you fancy, enjoy!

Probably would be easier to list the ONES NOT being drunk in TV. Myself I've found TGIF to be very relaxing, great AC, good prices & selection and the foods pretty darn good. For outside I'd have to say Red Sauce or Cody's. This is just my opinion!

I think this was a message about cocktails, not food
As for me, I've gotten tired of G&T's and Margaritas by Labor Day, back to Scotch & Soda or an icy dry martini.

Manhattans (Bourban), Chardonay (because it's hot here), Cabernet and Craft beer in that order.
Glad to hear there are Villagers who appreciate a cocktail(s) every night.
Just be sensible before driving.

Some of those weird happy hour combinations at the square aren't bad after the third or fourth sip. My preferences are single malt scotches, Guinness, or almost any Belgium beer.

Craft beers? Where are you buying them or which places serve them? Thanks.
