I had this rather interesting conversation with one of my good pal on msn just awhile ago. The topic which is my main topic today is, “Wine or liquor?” Similarly, Wee Kiat and I had this convo a week ago I think. He’s a WINE person, according to his self-declaration. LOL.
Honestly, I can’t decide which is my preferred because I love liquor as well as wine at the same time. I’m not a heavy drinker but I admit I do drink “heavily” sometimes when I chill out at frens’ parties & gigs. I take shots and the maximum I can take in depends on the alcohol level. My current take has to be Peach Margarita.
It’s not as heavy as Long Island Tea or Vodka Martini which really makes me feel “high” after 2 glasses each. Not a great experience that was.

“Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermentation of grape juice.[1] The natural chemical balance of grapes is such that they can ferment without the addition of sugars, acids, enzymes or other nutrients.[2] Wine is produced by fermenting crushed grapes using various types of yeast which consume the sugars found in the grapes and convert them into alcohol.” – Wiki
“A distilled beverage, spirit or liquor, is a drinkable liquid containing ethyl alcohol (ethanol) that is produced by means of distilling fermented grain, fruit, or vegetables – excluding fermented beverages such as beer and wine.[1] The term spirit generally refers to a distilled beverage that contains no added sugar and has at least 35% alcohol by volume[citation needed].” – Wiki
Seems like both are similar except that liquor has at least 35% of alcohol. OOH, and yes, I tried Whisky for my birthday last year and that was also not a good experience because I almost got knocked out, but thanks to my cousin who sent me home that I was safe that night. HAHA. My Dad’s a wine drinker whereas my Mum’s more towards the liquor side. So I end up being a mixture of both i guess? LOL. There’s like a collection of wine and liquor at my house so whenever there’s special occasion my family will bring out at least two bottles for celebration. I think it’s quite fun cause to me, drinking helps to release stress and allows me to just forget everything for one night. At least one night, haha.
Alright, pardon me, even if you don’t drink,‘Wine or Liquor” ?

Pardon my ignorance but aren’t you all below the legal age for drinking? It’s against the law, you know …
