Drinking Signs

[pa2themd 0]

I thought you may enjoy this one!!!! They are so true!

ARIES
Drinking style:
Impulsive Aries people like to party and sometimes don't know when to
Call it a night. Their competitive streak makes them prone to closing-time
shot contests. They're sloppy, fun drunks, and they get mighty flirty after
a couple tipples. Getting Aries people drunk is a good way to get what
you want out of them, should other methods fail. Aries can become
bellicose when blotto, but they will assume that whatever happened should
be
forgiven (if not forgotten) by sunrise. They can be counted on to do
the same for you so long as you haven't gone and done anything really
horrible to them last night, you sneaky Gemini.

Trademark cocktails:
Aries, born under the hot-stuff planet Mars, is the ruler of spicy
food and red things, and for balance, astrologers recommend they eat
tomatoes, onions, olives and greens. That's right, Aries, you were born
under the sign of the bloody Mary. Aries also rules grapefruit, and they've
been known to kick back a salty dog and a sea breeze or two. For extreme
hotcha, try a concoction with cinnamon liqueur in it.


Drinking buddies:
Marlon Brando, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Al Gore,
Thomas Jefferson, Elton John, Eric McCormack, Rosie O'Donnell, Sarah
Jessica Parker, Reese Witherspoon.


TAURUS
Drinking style:
Taurus prefers to drink at a leisurely pace, aiming for a mellow glow
rather than a full-on zonk. Since a truly intoxicated Taurus is a
one-person stampede, the kind of bull-in-a-china-shop inebriate who
spills red wine on white carpets and tells fart jokes to employers, the
preference for wining and dining (or Bud and buddies) to body shots
and barfing is quite fortunate for the rest of us. This is not to say that
the Bull is by any means a teetotaler - god, no. A squiffy Taurus will
get, er, gregarious (full of loudmouth soup, some would say) and is
extremely amusing to drag to a karaoke bar when intoxicated.


Trademark cocktails:
Early-to-bed Taureans need a picker-upper. Try a Red Bull and vodka.
They also have a leviathan sweet tooth and are fond of drinks with names
that sound like dessert (50-50 bar, mudslide). Sweetly caffeinated drinks,
like Irish coffee or white Russians, are ideal. More macho Taureans will go
for something unpretentious, like a Jack and Coke or whiskey sour.


Drinking buddies:
Cate Blanchett, Tony Blair, Pierce Brosnan, Cher, Penelope Cruz,
William Randolph Hearst, Jerry Seinfeld, Barbara Striesand, Uma Thurman,
Renee Zellweger.


GEMINI
Drinking style:
Geminis can drink without changing their behavior much, they're so
naturally chatty and short-attention-spanned that it's just hard to
tell sometimes. They can amaze you by conversing with finesse and
allusion,then doing something to belie an extremely advanced state of
intoxication, like puking in your shoe. Geminis possess the magic ability
to
flirts uccessfully (and uninfuriatingly, which is very tricky) with several
people at once. They like to order different cocktails every round,
repetition is boring, and may create a theme (like yellow drinks:
beer, sauvignon blanc and limoncello) for their own amusement.


Trademark cocktails:
Easily bored Geminis need some stimulation in their drinks - those
with two parts, like a black and tan (or just a double), are particularly
appealing. Otherwise, they'll drink all over the map, ordering
frou-frou drinks to add to their collection of cocktail monkeys or going
for
whiskey rocks because they're feeling rather noir. Gemini rules the herb
anise make some home-infused anise vodka as a gift.


Drinking buddies:
George Bush Sr., Johnny Depp, Rupert Everett, Boy George, Allen
Ginsberg,Angelina Jolie, John Kennedy, Ian McKellen, Kylie Minogue,
Morrissey.

CANCER
Drinking style:
Cancer is a comfort drinker and an extra wine with dinner or an
after-work beer or six can be extra comforting, can't it, Cancer darling?
Like fellow water signs Scorpio and Pisces, Crabs must guard against
lushery.
Cancers are brilliant at ferreting out secret parties and insinuating
themselves on VIP lists - and, in true Hollywood style, Cancers are never
really drunk; instead, they get "tired and emotional" (read: weepy when
lubricated). But there's nothing better than swapping stories (and
spit)over a few bottles of inky red wine with your favourite Cancer. Even
your second-favorite Cancer will do.


Trademark cocktails:
Ruled by the moon, Cancers are intrigued by the idea of moonshine -
any brown booze, from a bourbon press to a whiskey and soda to
grandpappy's special brew in a mason jar, will do. They also like
comfortingly warm and sweet drinks, like hot toddies and hot buttered rums.
The sign also rules the flavour vanilla, and you'd be adored if you served
up a vanilla vodka and soda.


Drinking buddies:
Pamela Anderson, George W. Bush, Bill Cosby, Tom Cruise, Harrison
Ford,Sean Hayes, Lil' Kim, George Michael, Princess Diana, Prince William.


LEO
Drinking style:
Leo likes to drink and dance, they're often fabulous dancers, and
usually pretty good drinkers as well, losing their commanding dignity and
turning kittenish. Of course, they're quite aware they're darling - Leos
will be Leos, after all. They generally know their limit, probably because
they loathe losing self-control. When they get over-refreshed, expect
flirting to ensue and perhaps not with the one what brung them. But Leo's
not the type to break rules even when drunk, so just try to ignore it and
expect a sheepish (and hung over) Lion to make it up to you the next day.



Trademark cocktails:
Leos like flashy drinks, be they complicated tropical concoctions
festooned with umbrellas, like a Bahama mama or the more common
strawberry daiquiri or mai tai. Indeed, they often have a taste for the
fruity, try a screwdriver, or add an extra cherry to the next Manhattan.
Their sense of drama lends itself to a kir royale, of course.


Drinking buddies:
Ben Affleck, Gillian Anderson, Bill Clinton, Monica Lewinsky, Jennifer
Lopez, Madonna, Debra Messing, Kevin Spacey, Martha Stewart, Andy
Warhol, Dieba.


VIRGO
Drinking style:
Cerebral Virgos are compelled to impose order onto their bender. Their
famously fussy quest for purity could lead to drinking less than other
signs, sure, but it could also lead to drinking booze neat, to sucking
down organic wine or just to brand loyalty. They rarely get fully
shellacked, but, oh, when they do! Virgo's controlled by the
intellect, but there's an unbridled beast lurking within, and they let it
loose when walloped. It's dead sexy (and surprisingly unsloppy). As one
Virgo friend used to declare "I'm going to drink myself into a low level of
intelligence tonight." A toast to the subgenius IQ!


Trademark cocktails:
Many Virgos prefer clear, simple, untreacly drinks like vodka tonic or
a real margarita, though you'll find 'em drinking anything, from
unflinchingly downing Cuervo straight to smirkingly ordering a dirty
virgin. They also tend to like bitter, low-alk guzzles like Campari
and soda. They rarely change their drink once they've found it, however.


Drinking buddies:
Cameron Diaz, Hugh Grant, Christopher Isherwood, Michael Jackson,
Freddie Mercury, Carrie-Anne Moss, Dorothy Parker, Ryan Philippe, Keanu
Reeves, Lily Tomlin.


LIBRA
Drinking style:
"I'm jusht a social drinker" slurs Libra "it's jusht that I'm so damn
social?" Libra loves nothing more than to party, mingle and relate to
everyone. Whether dipped in favor of Good Libra (with Insta-Friend
device set to "on") or heavier on the Evil Libra side (they are little
instigators when bored), the Scales can really work a room. Charming
as they are, Libras are notoriously lacking in self-control, however,
which can get them into all sorts of trouble, including wearing their
wobbly boots waaaay too early in the evening, flirting with their best
friend's beau or even blacking out the night's events entirely. Oops!


Trademark cocktails:
Aesthetic Libras like pretty, pouffy drinks like a pink lady or a
brandy Alexander. That's their influence of Venus, their ruling planet,
which also gives them a horror of crudely named potions like Sex on the
Beach. They're fine with "normal" guzzles like apple martinis, but every
Libra secretly just wants Champagne, and lots of it.


Drinking buddies:
Jimmy Carter, Simon Cowell, Ani DiFranco, Janeane Garofalo, Hugh
Jackman, Martina Navratilova, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sting, Oscar Wilde,
Catherine
Zeta-Jones.


SCORPIO
Drinking style:
Don't ever tell Scorpios they've had enough, for they'll smirk at you
and quietly but intentionally keep tippling till they're hog-whimpering
drunk, out of 100-proof spite. Scorpios like to drink, and screw you if you
have a problem with that. Most of them see the sauce as something to savor
in itself, and not as a personality-altering tool, though if depressed,
self-loathing Scorps seek total obliteration. But generally, they're
fascinating drinking pals, brilliant conversationalists and dizzying
flirts. They also remember everything, especially what you did when
you were blitzed. Only drink with a Scorpio who likes you.


Trademark cocktails:
Just as a Scorpio can look you in the eye and smile while secretly
plotting your demise, so does the brandy-laced stinger's sweet taste
hide a potent amount of alcohol. If you want to get literal, serve them a
scorpion, they may not love tropical drinks, but it shows you're
paying attention. Scorpio rules watermelon, so break out the blender and
fix
a pitcher of watermelon margaritas to seduce 'em, though red wine will
do the trick just as well.


Drinking buddies:
Truman Capote, Hillary Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jodie Foster, Bill
Gates, k.d. lang, Megan Mullally, Demi Moore, Sylvia Plath, RuPaul.


SAGITTARIUS
In vino veritas, and, for Sagittarius, in booze blurtiness: When
buttered, they'll spill all your secrets and many of their own.
Tactlessness
aside, Sagittarius is just plain fun to drink with. This is a sign of
serious partying (what else would you expect from the sign of Sinatra,
Keith
Richards, the Bush twins and Anna Nicole Smith?) They're the people
who chat up everyone in the room, then persuade the entire crowd to travel
somewhere else, like a nightclub, or a playground, or Cancun.
Good-natured hijinks are sure to ensue (including a high possibility of
loopy groping;
Spontaneous Sag is a brilliant booty call).


Trademark cocktails:
A travel-loving sign, Sagittarius might be intrigued by drinks like
Moscow mules, Singapore slings, perhaps even a Long Island iced tea (not a
bad option, given how much Sag can put away and still stay vertical).
Party monsters that they are, they're attracted to shots, like the
ever-popular lemon drop. Sag rules pears, and could use a nice pear cider
right about now, come to think of it.


Drinking buddies:
The Bush twins, Margaret Cho, Noel Coward, Betty Ford, Lucy Liu, Brad
Pitt, Keith Richards, Frank Sinatra, Anna Nicole Smith, Britney
Spears.


CAPRICORN
Drinking style:
Capricorn is usually described as practical, steadfast, money-hungry
and status-thirsty, no wonder they get left off the astrological
cocktail-party list. But this is the sign of David Bowie and Annie
Lennox, not to mention Elvis. Capricorn is the true rock star: independent,
powerful and seriously charismatic, not too eager to please. And if
they make money being themselves, who are you to quibble? But just like
most rock stars, they're either totally on or totally off, and they
generally need a little social lubricant to loosen up and enjoy the after
party, especially if they can hook up with a cute groupie.


Trademark cocktails:
Old-fashioned Cap would probably like an old-fashioned just fine, or a
dry martini, or a gin and tonic, or a gimlet, or any other no-nonsense
quaff. They prefer drinks that taste like alcohol and generally hate drinks
with more than three ingredients. However, they like the flavor of
cranberry and will order a cosmo if they can handle the wait for it to get
mixed.


Drinking buddies:
Orlando Bloom, David Bowie, James Dean, Marlene Dietrich, Martin
Luther King Jr., Jude Law, Annie Lennox, Marilyn Manson, Richard Nixon,
Elvis Presley.


AQUARIUS
Drinking style:
Aquarius and drinking don't go together that well (except for water,
that is). They have an innate tendency toward know-it-allism, and if they
get an idea while sizzled, they're more stubborn than a stain or a stone.
If they're throwing a party or organizing an outing, however, they're too
preoccupied with their duties to get combative, and they make
perfectly charming drunks in that case. Fortunately, they're usually
capital
drink-nursers. They also make the best designated drivers (if you can
get them before they start raising their wrist): Aquarius is fascinated by
drunk people and capable of holding interesting conversations with
soused strangers while sober.


Trademark cocktails:
Aquarius is likely to order stuff most people have never heard of a
capirinha, Satan's whiskers, a negroni, an Arthur Tompkins. They like
to stump the bartender. This sign rules the color electric blue and would
be pleased by any tipple featuring blue curacao. They also rule the olive
tree, so pour the juice into that dirty martini.

Drinking buddies:
Jennifer Aniston, Ellen DeGeneres, Dr. Dre, Matt Groening, Ashton
Kutcher, Ronald Reagan, Christina Ricci, Justin Timberlake, Oprah Winfrey,
Elijah Wood.


PISCES
Drinking style:
If you're a Pisces, you've probably already heard that you share a
sign, and an addictive personality, with Liz Taylor, Liza Minelli and Kurt
Cobain. Not only do Pisces like to lose themselves in the dreamy,
out-there feeling that only Brutal Fruit can give, but they build up
a mighty tolerance fast. Who needs an expensive date like that? On the
other
hand, they're fabulously enchanting partners, whether in conversation or in
crime. With the right Pisces, you can start out sharing a pitcher of
margaritas and wind up in bed together for days. The phrase "addictive
personality" can be read two ways, you know.


Trademark Cocktails:
Pisces rules fresh mint, and they do love a mojito or three, though a
julep will do just as well. They also like punches, like sangria or
the oh-so-aptly named fish house punch. (Pretty much anything will satisfy
a Pisces in a pinch, though "drinking like a fish" is an idiom pulled
out of the zodiac, not the deep blue sea.) Pisces is a chocoholic and loves
crème de cacao (and spiked cocoa).


Drinking buddies:
Drew Barrymore, Chastity Bono, Chelsea Clinton, Kurt Cobain, Edward
Gorey, Queen Latifah, Liza Minelli, Anais Nin, Sharon Stone, Liz Taylor.

Blue Caracao (sp?) is a blue liquor that they often mix in cocktails if mixed with orange juice turns kinda green!!
