Ice Fishing Beverage Recommendations

MikeP624

Going ice fishing this weekend.  Need to bring some beverages.  There will be plenty or whiskey and beer.  But i need something you can drink straight that is not whiskey.  Any suggestions?

Well, you already said beer.....  )

fireball whiskey is a good one ice fishing to sip on

fishlessman

i bring canned guinness and a guinness glass
peach tree schnapps, fireball cinamon whiskey (add tobasco),    dr mcgillicuddy's menthomint is probably one of the biggest ice fishing drinks to sip on

fishlessman

a dufflebag full of different shots to dig and search thru works well too, lemon liquor, cognac, the dr, sambucca (white and black), etc

Chubbs

Bring a pint of peppermint schnapps. Easy to drink, will keep you warm, and high octane

not me but margaritas

You mean you can't drink whiskey straight? That's certainly news to my liver!

i discovered islay scotch on the last trip, i kinda like the smokey peat taste but no one else did which made it even better

I have been told by the others going that there will be ample booze.  Anyone got a good Cigar recommendation?

If you have electricity and can make coffee (or fire and a French press or a good thermos), you could do Irish coffees.

fishlessman

usually the booze is the given, what grill arrangement and what to bring for food is the dilemma. chilis, stews, meatballs, even pulled pork is good if theres a big burner, on a grill sausages tips, even a pork loin

Plus one on the Pepermint Schnapps. I drank a whole 1/5th when I was a teenager. It's still kind of hard to eat peppermint candy, funny how stuff like that works. Another good one is the Root Beer Schnapps

Franjelico ... Never heard of it? Look it up. It is good. Although I prefer the beer.

Tatuaje Coronu...kinda expensive Oliva Master Blend. Liga Pescara. Good luck fishing.

You guys are weird, tequila is the way to go!

Tie a fishing line to the bottle and let it float on the water for a few minutes

and drink it.

But what do I know, I just stayed at a Holiday inn!

Grand Marnier shots always brought the temp up a couple degrees.
