Ever since a really, really bad experience drinking dark rum & cokes (I had no idea they were doubles) when I about 18, my body can only handle 2 drinks. I can't finish a third. I rarely try. I get sick to my stomach before the 3rd is finished. I'm another one that loves margaritas and good wine (not at the same time mind you) and good liqueurs. I'll have one, sipped and savored, maybe a second one, but then water or soda after that. And my face really flushes red while I'm drinking that second one, too.

I drink maybe once every couple weeks, if that. My DH drinks only 2 or 3 times a year, and has only one or two glasses. So some of the bottles in our cabinet are well aged. They last a long time in this house (I think the oldest might be the bottle of gin I brought from my apt when we got married 30 years ago - I don't think it has been opened yet).
