Christine's favourite drinks....??

Wow, I don't know. It seems like she would always be drinking wine, red and white, but no name stands out in my memory.

But speaking of her favorite things, I watched The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel this weekend and Maggie Smith was obsessed with hobnobs. She tried to take them to India and she couldn't get them past airport security and it made me think of Christine and laugh.

Thanks for the help, since then all I've come up with is Blue Nun but I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting :/

She loved Pouilly Fuisse for a bit. It's an excellent white wine.

Oh yes, Ken did mention that:

“They had made a lot of money off of ‘Rumors’ and they were now superstars and there was a decadence factor. They all had their own personal stash of whatever their favorite drugs were and we had lobster brought in every night for dinner and built our own million-dollar studio to record. Christine had to have her Pouilly-Fuissé wine or the session would end and she’d be furious.”

Then when California won a wine contest over the French wines, Ken joked, "I guess Chris will have to start drinking something other than Pouilly Fuissé.”

Blue Nun, Pouilly Fuisse, and Dom Perignon come to mind. I also recall some references to gin and tonic, either in Ken or Carol Ann's book.

Fwiw, I got hobnobs into Italy this past week

Yes, I did get gin and tonic from Carol's book.

Ann also refers to Vodka Tonics on Christine (and John's) side of the stage being replenished as needed
