What's your cocktail of choice? Turns out your taste-buds reveal secrets about who you are.
Are you a cosmo type of girl who just loves that cran & vodka collaboration, or do you reach for a cold one when you’re craving a healthy buzz? Well, according to Yahoo!, you are what you drink—kind of. Let me explain. Turns out your drink of choice has something to say about the person you are—and so does the food you eat. Here’s the scoop, so get ready to cheers…
Martini drinking men apparently are after winning your heart, often succeeding in impressing you. But if they go for the vodka on the rocks, Yahoo! says they’re too self-conscious to actually order a martini.
When it comes to beer, girls ordering a Bud Light know how to hang with the guys, while guys tend to be easy going, making themselves at home at a sports bar. (No surprise there!)
White wine lovers scream woman. Yep, it’s a girly drink of choice, somewhat insinuating you’re a little uptight, but can crack with a light buzz.
And here’s a shocker, apparently whiskey sippers are downright hot, regardless of gender. And if you can stomach jager, turns out you secretly wish you were still a college kid kicking it with your buddies.
Appletini fans are often parents who ditched the kids for the night looking for a little fun. Margaritas on the rocks mean you’re ready to rock and have a good time out. And truth be told, if you just love those Long Islands, you might want to choose another drink of choice. That’s because Yahoo! suggest that means you may have a drinking problem.
But of course you’ll need some food to soak up all that booze. Here’s what you need to know when it comes to date night dining.
Well-done burger boys and girls say you’re a child at heart—that mama still does your laundry. On the flip side, if your guy likes his burgers rare, he’s definitely a manly man, especially if he adds bacon to the mix.
And while you may be head over heels about animals, soy-product-loving vegetarians and vegans frankly scream high maintenance. Sorry if that’s a buzz-kill.
Moving on. Burritos equal you don’t want to have sex tonight and Indian food means you don’t want to kiss. Hmmm, I wonder why…
However, Italian stallions are looking for love. Yep, this means you’re into romance and an evening full of corny pleasure.
And men who prepare home-cooked meals know how to take care of himself. Better yet—they’re willing to put forth TLC into the woman he likes. While some of these “concepts” are a bit bogus, I must say I agree with a priceless dinner at home.
Moral of the story: eat wisely, drink with caution, and learn to cook.
