I am not much of a drinker – but I tend to be wund up a bit tight sometimes and will sometimes have one (sometimes two but normally 1) strong drink to mellow/numb me out a bit.
When I lived in Dallas, I used to have a “Hurricane†which is a strong mixed drink w/ about 3 or 4 different alchols in it – one of those would mellow/numb me out.
Now back in Miami, I tried to order a “Hurricane†but they didn't know what it was so I opt for a “Long Islandâ€.
So – from those that are long time experienced drinkers LOL – what is your favorite drink to give you a good buzz in the SC?

im into rum when im at the sc so anything mixed with that will do
Jack and coke works for me
Used to be all about Jack and Coke, still am to an extent. Either that or some decent scotch on the rocks (e.g. Black Label).
During afternoon visits I usually have a Bailey's on the rocks. At night I have a Maker's Mark with a splash.
H2O
These wack ass clubs in Virginia prohibit the sale of hard liquor in strip clubs-so my only options are beer and wine.
My favorite strip club drink is Heineken, but if I was somewhere that allowed liquor purchases, it would be Jack Daniels.
I'm with mjx01 H20
Alcohol is NOT needed & NEVER used to relax & enjoy myself.
I take it pretty easy. Just a Coors Light or Corona. Sometimes I'll get a cranberry vodka.
ALutard only drinks to forget he is a pedotard. Chris Hansen is comming for you
Sometimes a beer, preferably a Yuengling. Rum in coke is my most frequent choice. Scotch if they have something decent.
Beer, Miller Lite preferably.
Usually beer.
Absinth and formaldihyde
No alcohol at my regular spot but usually have a bottle of jack in the car, sometimes drink straight sometimes mix something myself. Otherwise either beer or long islands if the place can mix drinks halfway decently.
Coffee. Like my dancers, I like it light & sweet.
On the occasions I drink at the club I usually go with a rum & coke or scotch on the rocks. Brandy works well too.
Beer by the bucket
Slow Comfortable Screw Up Against The Wall.
Ice cold grain alcohol or warm water depending on my mood.
Depends on my plans for the visit. If I just stop by during work, a beer works for me, usually Miller Lite or a Yuengling. If I plan to stay a bit, have a nice cigar, Jack does it for me.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but a Long Island is a girly drink.
The problem with strip club drinks around here (Detroit) is the bartenders usually don't know how to mix a drink, and the bars don't stock good beer. I often just ask for a Budweiser. It's the "King of Beers" and everyone stocks it, and the dogwater taste doesn't bother me too much when there are naked girls around. Other times I'll get Maker's Mark neat. It's the best bourbon that you can count on most clubs having in stock. Most clubs will have several decent scotches, which you can drink neat or on the rocks.
If you want to branch out, I'd recommend a highball of some kind. Since they have only two ingredients and are mixed in the glass, they are nearly impossible for a bad bartender to screw up. Jack & Coke, rum & Coke, bourbon & Coke, bourbon & soda, scotch & soda, Seven & 7, etc. Whiskey sour is usually safe, although I don't care for them.
Blue Moon. Not really a "strip club" drink, but is my favorite beer.
Ermita,
You're giving drink advice and mention Jack and that other word in the same sentence??? BLASPHEMY!!!
Water
Beer. I'm in the ANYTHING BUT BUDWEISER camp generally, but I'm with Eminita Nights in that most Detroit Strip clubs aren't stocked with the micro-brews I prefer.
If I'm near the tip rail and there are lots of black lights I'll sometimes order a gin and tonic because tonic water glows under black light and I've actually had strippers comment about it- SERIOUSLY. Which leads me to believe its a relative minority of guys that drink them, but an edge is an edge... for some reason, its usually nerdy goth chicks that notice it, so anytime I want a lap dance from an Abby from NCIS wannabe I might toss one down....
I've sailed as a merchant seaman on the Great Lakes for several seasons and spent many watches on the Detroit River as lookout. One of my favorite spots is just below Belle Isle, where the Hiram Walker Distillery stands on the Canadian side. I love the smell of the Rye mash over the water if the wind is from that shore- if you smell it, you can taste it. If you taste it you can vaguely picture the warmth on the back of your throat- but its never quite the same as HAVING a shot. So, I picked up an affinity for CANADIAN CLUB. Keep your Scotch and Bourbon, make mine Canadian. (to be fair, if I'd been working barges on the rivers in Kentucky I'd probably have an affinity for Bourbon now, or if I was running a cargo ship into Edinburgh Scotland I may have picked up an appreciation for scotch- but it wasn't meant to be).
Clubber, you are absolutely right. I never drink that combination myself but I've heard it's popular. Besides which in most places if you order Coke, I think you actually get some generic cola.
Hugh, I don't usually drink Canadian straight, but I should. I do often order it in an old-fashioned or manhattan.
A pitcher pitcher of Lemon Drop for any ladies that sit with me to partake in and beer for myself when im there for the ling haul. If im only there for an hour or two I stick with beer. Landshark, Bluemoin, Heineken, or shock top.
Actually I like to order it on the rocks EN. Them I can tell this joke:
A baby harp seal saunters into a bar. The bartender asks the seal "What would you like?" The seal looks up and says "Anything but a Canadian Club on the Rocks!"
(Okay, I guess I'm one sick bastard for that!)
Jack on the rocks.
Ermita,
OK, you're back on my good side. :)
Ermita,
Although I have been known to mix Jack and Tennessee Honey.
Most of the bartenders don't know how to make a good drink. I almost always go for something simple, makers on the rocks, gin and tonic, or a scotch will do me. I learned my lesson long ago that if it can be screwed up it will; anything containing more than two ingredients I avoid.
A few clubs I know will make legitimate cocktails but I would not count on most clubs to do it well.
I do not consider a Long Island to be a girly drink when it is so strong and would traditionally cause most girls to get extremely buzzed, especially spinners.
Jack by the tap
