Do Real Men Drink Pink?
AskMen.com highlights 10 Manly Drinks and gives the recipies for them. Go figure--Zima's not on the list!
This article brought up a question in my mind, and I thought I'd ask your opinion. I've seen an increasing number of men drinking cosmos. Every time I see a man sipping a cosmo, I think, "Real men don't drink pink." Am I totally off base with this? For some reason, it just looks odd to me.

You must frequent a lot of gay bars...
Says: Shillelagh at April 11, 2005 08:50 AMI'm going to have to try these out. I haven't even heard of most of them.
As for your Cosmo question, no you're not off base. Unless you're in Key West where the fruity drinks will knock you on you ass. Then it's okay.
Says: Brian D. at April 11, 2005 09:34 AMI have served many a man a cosmo, and there are three types of men that order them:
1. Gay men
2. Euro/metrosexual men
3. Gay men in denial
I think the whole metrosexual thing is somewhat intertwined with group 3, so maybe there are just two drinks.
In the article, however, the guy hit the (rusty)nail mostly on the head, but I did question some of his recipes. The old fashioned, for example, was taught to me to have the fruit muddled with the sugar and bitters...just nitpicking, I guess, but an important difference in the taste and texture of the cocktail.
Likewise, I read his Martini recipe to mean that he prefers it stirred rather than shaken. Amateur.
Says: ren at April 11, 2005 10:19 AMCosmos are definitely a chick's drink along with champagne cocktails, wine spritzers and anything with fruit or an umbrella sticking out of it.
