Hey GrayViners!
Isn’t it funny how life hands us all sorts of reasons to celebrate? Some are the big, unforgettable ones—like a brand-new grandbaby, a long-awaited family visit, or finally ticking off that big project on your list. But if you ask me, the small wins deserve just as much fanfare. Think about those everyday triumphs: getting that stubborn jar lid to finally pop open, remembering where you left your glasses (on the third try!), or spotting a picture-perfect sunset right before dinner.
No matter how big or small the victory, a little “cheers” makes it even sweeter. And it doesn’t have to be fancy—a cup of tea on the porch, a splash of soda with extra ice, or maybe something a little stronger if that’s your style.
So here’s my question for you: What’s your favorite drink to celebrate a little win—big or small?
I’ll go first: for me, it’s a smooth single malt whiskey—just a small pour, enough to savor the moment and smile.
Now it’s your turn! Share your go-to celebratory sip in the forum so we can all raise our glasses (or mugs!) to your everyday victories.
Let’s see what everyone’s toasting with tonight!
Cheers!

A nice rich wine really does feel like a proper celebration. Do you have a favorite type you usually go for—like a shiraz, cabernet, or maybe something a bit lighter?
A Dirty Grey Goose Martini with 3 olives definitely says celebration in style. Do you usually make it yourself at home, or is it more of a treat you enjoy when you’re out?
Iced tea without the sweetness is a great choice, especially for celebrating those everyday wins. It’s lovely that you’ve found new favorites since you had to move away from alcohol. Do you still enjoy making fun little twists with your drinks at home, like you used to with the cocktails?
