@JerryJustice: Grand Marnier by itself in a shot glass or in a warm snifter, no ice, no nothing. I've heard both "neat" and "straight" used interchangeably to describe this.

better in a snifter...the shape of the snifter adds to the taste . and anything unmixed out of the bottle )jack daniels, bushmills etc) is neat or straight the terms are synonymous (it might go well with BBQ) 4951

@donnatella: Neat is a very specific term, but straight is ambiguous. Neat means single spirit, not chilled, no ice, no water.  Straight could mean this, or it could mean a dressed tequila shot, or chilled Jaeger shot.So in your case, both terms work. 4951

@ProblemAgain: Preferable in a WARM snifter. It brings out the flavor.

The simplest way to describe is this...A drink served neat is completely unadulterated.  No ice, nothing added.  A drink that is served straight up can have a combination of alcohols/mixer and then served without any ice after you shake or stir it.  Sometimes it can be chilled and strained, sometimes just combined and poured into a glass but without ice.  They key is that it is served without ice.  "Straight" or  "Up" would generally be any cocktail that is chilled, shaken, stirred and strained.  This would apply to most things going into a martini glass, for example.  I hope you won the debate.  4951
