COED Vault: 9 Essential Summer Dude-Drinks

June 26, 2008 - 8:30 am By COED Staff

Ah, summer–a time to enjoy the outdoors, soak in some sun, check out chicks and drink till you can’t even find your car keys, let alone use them. (That’s what we call responsible.) Trouble is, sex on the beach and tequila sunrises sound summery, but any dude who drinks them should be beaten with a bar stool.

So to avoid any incidental injury this summer, stick to COED’s refreshing list of 9 Essential Summer Dude Drinks. If there’s even a splash of pink in these cocktails, you can kick our asses.

    micheladas rock, but it’s hard to find anyone who knows how to make it right – there is not much worse than a bad michelada.

    We’ve got a bar in town that makes great caipirinhas, mojitos and michelada’s, but I agree with the above commenter. Mojitos aren’t very manly.

    And the Bull Shot sounds awful. Beef broth and vodka? Awful.

    I’d say that perhaps one or two of these drinks aren’t for limp wristed men. I wouldn’t drink any of them in public, but if you removed the garnish, a Tom Collins might not get you beat up. Maybe. You might as well order a Pink Squirrell or Sex on the Beach if you order a Tennessee Tea.

    Tennessee Tea needs to be removed and replaced with Long Island Iced Tea…

    1 part vodka
    1 part tequila
    1 part rum
    1 part gin
    1 part triple sec
    1 1/2 parts sweet and sour mix
    1 splash Coca-Cola®

    Skip the sweet and sour mix for a real kick in the nutsack. (The Coke is just for flavor, very little if you’ve never made this drink before)

    It may be a list of drinks for dudettes or pantie waisted primpers, I guess it depends on your definition of “dude”.

    Most of those drinks seriously deserver an umbrella or a skewer of fruit salad.

    I do enjoy a Manhattan every now and then, but I’ve gotta say… I don’t think there’s a more stereotypical old lady drink than a Manhattan. Manhattans, while not screaming girly, don’t exactly scream manly either, as far as I’m concerned. Why ruin your whiskey with sweet fortified wine?

    Manhattan? Really? Don’t the hags on Sex and the City drink those? Admit it, you just took 9 random drinks made with whiskey on here, didn’t you? You could’ve ended up with just about anything doing that. I submit that this list is garbage.
    9 Dude drinks
    Beer
    Whiskey, straight
    Vodka, straight
    Tequila, straight
    Bodyshots of ANY kind
    Jaeger, straight
    Jaegerbombs
    Margaritas
    The leftovers in the barrag at the end of the night. (Only really tough/drunk guys can handle this.)

    Irish Car Bomb… how was -that- left off?

    sorry dude, the only manly way to drink jag is straight, red bull is gay, and it makes the jag gay by contact.

    how can no one name the White Russian? easily the best drink for a “dude” other than a nice tasty Busch Light.

    Traditionally daquiris and mojitos are the kinds of drinks Hemmingway threw back in Cuba. Nothing girly about that. It’s the bastardized versions with flavored liquors that have made these drinks unmanly. Men are allowed to like things with complex flavors; we’re not all Budweiser-swilling rednecks.

    Finally, I concur with Ivan: Red Bull sucks. No one over 21 should be caught dead drinking Jaegerbombs in public.

    Turkey Tea – **for turkeys**

    In a highball glass:

    Add one part Nestea Lemon:
    (1/2 can of lemon Nestea (Blue can))

    and 1 part Wild Turkey (about 4 ounces)

    add ice and drink the hell out of them thangs!!

    Hint: adding more Turkey, the wilder it becomes

    This list can’t be serious…dude drinks? Come on.

    1. Beer
    2. Whiskey

    Vodka is for women and the gheys.

    Need to add an Arnie Palmer

    half lemonade/ half ice tea and a couple shots of canadian whiskey

    How about a 7 & 7?
    One part 7 up, one part Seagram’s 7.
    Or any whiskey with ginger ale. And by “any whiskey” I mean Jameson.

    Drink Guinness this summer. It couldn’t be more simple.
