111 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) I am going sea kayaking for a week in Alaska this summer and have to pack relatively low volume, but still need to have ample booze. Any suggestions for mixers/drink combos which pack down smallish and that a couple girls might like? (giggity giggity!) (wife is one of them... ) (nothin' too girlie though! I still gotta drink it too) Also planning on bringing along some box/bagged wine. I am not much of a connesure of box wine, so any suggestions on some good kinds or what to avoid would be welcome. I know a few of you are experts on the topic! Edited March 25, 2009 by 111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frikadeller Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 freeze dried beer... packs down small, and rehydrates easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyHarry Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 There are three choices: bourbon, irish whiskey, or scotch. I prefer bourbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olyclimber Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm telling you that there people that will tell you to drink Jim Bean Black. That stuff is paint thinner. I can say that if you get caught in the wind and big waves to break out the licker and drink it all then. That way you won't lose it if you capsize. Also: STAY WITH THE BOAT.

Mal_Con Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Black Box wine is one of the best boxes, for hard Wild Turkey, RumpleMintz and 151 rum do the job. Yukon Jack goes down easy especially with chocolate or coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Apparently they don't like the taste of paint thinner. It is an acquired taste...much like the taste of freedom and liberty and truth and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
111 Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 yukon w/ chocolate?!?! thats crazy talk! (say I wanted to try it... how would I go about preparing chocolate for the drink???) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 All girls like wine coolers. So get those, you'll get some every night. Guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frikadeller Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 freeze dried beer... packs down small, and rehydrates easily. There's your million dollar idea if you can make it work! It will probably taste like shit, just like those freeze dried bags o' food backpackers insist on buying and somehow eating. I don't think that I have the patience to try to develop it either, I would just get bore and drink the beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
111 Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 wine coolers are out. not enough alcohol/too much volume. I guess hot toddies would work w/ peppermint schnopps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 yukon does keep with the Alaskan theme, but keep in mind that stuff is also used to clear grease off of engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frikadeller Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 All girls like wine coolers. So get those, you'll get some every night. Guaranteed. Just don't tell them that it's actually just flavored beer. Here is my favorite to get those high school girls "in the mood"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have multi use possibilities. You can use them as pee bottles. You never mistake it for your nalgene. Or you could summon rescue by scratching a note on a candy bar wrapper, and insert it in bottle and corks and send it down river. Or you could shoot them for some after drinks fun.
