My first trip to STJ is coming up, so I can't say what my favorite is yet ... however I am going to attempt to try all of the above, then let you know. :lol:

I am such a sissy. :(
We think we are women of steel -- though Gromit had 8 to my 6 :) -- because the 3rd lady with us took one sip and slid it across the table and said "you guys can have that" too strong for her.

Jay - great slide show to perk me up from a grey PA afternoon!

I especially liked the guy who "swam" his cigs in ziploc bag. As a reformed smoker, that is something I would have done!

My vote has to go to Woody's BBC. Man is that ever good!

Second would have to be a cold, cold Carib by the pool at the villa!

Can't wait!

I do love a Cuba Libre at The Beach Bar. Dark and Stormy's are great too. It's nice to sit there on a quiet day and watch the ferrys come and go.

For breakfast, a Guiness Foreign Extra Stout while the sun comes up from my villa deck.

Cheers, RickG

We share the same plan. In the interests of fairness, of course. :)

I absolutely LOVE the bushwackers at the Beach Bar! That is our drink of choice in the Virgins.

I third the QM pub. Although I am very biased and it won't be fair until I have tried all of the bars 8)

Like that huge drinky menu at Morgan's Mango too.

Had the Mojito at La Tapa a little too much mint for me. Must try again to make sure :roll:
When will I see St John again?

Where is Ivan's using Soggy Dollar as a reference point? Is it on that side of the island?
