Okay, I know I asked this before, but I'm kind of running out of options here.

I've been trying quite a few alcoholic drinks as of late and I'm still having issues finding one that I like.

Bacardi and coke didn't cut it, I still could smell and taste the alcohol in the drink with barely 1/8th of the glass actually containing the rum.

Beer is a no go, just don't care for it.

I don't like the taste of alcohol, in fact, it seems I can taste even the smallest amount in my drink.

Does anyone have some suggestions, or should I just give up and just be content with the fact that I hate alcoholic beverages?

Here's my favorite drink:
1 part scotch
1 part ice cube

But really, for the least alcoholic tasting beverage just take that Crystal Light lemonade mix shit, and mix a lot of that with vodka and water.

Either that or you can take the less manly route and go with wine coolers or fruit lambics. Those don't taste like alcohol at all. Fruit lambics can get really expensive though....

I don't know, I wonder if I'm like my dad and have a mild allergy to alcohol, it always makes me feel kind of sick drinking anything that has alcohol in it.

Is it an acquired taste or something? I just can't seem to bring myself to enjoy the taste of it being mixed in a drink let alone drinking it straight.

Have you ever tried wine?

Any type of juice and vodka, particularly orange and cranberry, or maybe even red bull.

Washington apples are good, thats whiskey, cranberry juice, an d apple pucker

I dont know many more. I drink beer and vodka for the most part

White wine and that's it, still didn't like it. I've been trying, I really have, the bitterness and after taste just doesn't seem to jive with me.

I'll keep experimenting, there's got to be a drink out there that I'll like. I'd like to have something to chat over in the event I go to a bar or some place with some folks from work or what have you. If all else fails, I guess I can just be the DD

I cant imagine not liking alcohol.

Its a startling though

I didn't mind the taste of alcohol at first. I swear I could chug hard liquor.

Then I drank too much and I hated it for years. I had to drink beer through a straw to be able to down it at one point.

Now I love it.

Rum. Rum is a beautiful thing, even if it does hurt me on occasion.

Rum and coke is hard to go wring with, just about 2-3 shots per can is all you need for it to taste about right.

That, or vodka and a lot of sodas mix fairly well, or vodka/orange juice.

Mrs. Terry of Hat

Vodka and orange juice. Or cranberry juice. Or any juice, really. Soooo good.

Also, orange pop and vanilla rum. Tastes like a creamsicle, it's delicious.

I'm generally a wine drinker, but if I want a mixed drink that's what I go for!

I've heard Birthday Cake shots are delicious, supposedly they do taste just like chocolate cake.

what would be a decent cheapish beer? lol god help me I don't become an alcoholic,but lots of days with stress I feel like a need a couple drinks........

is heineken crap? Heard dark beer tastes better than the pale aluminum most beer seems to be >__>

Guest

It all depends on what you like

Your best bet for good cheap beer is a local brewery.

If you want to drink the real cheap shit like, Bud, Coors Miller stuff like that, then they are all the same for the most part.

What do you consider expensive?

Saranac is a good, fairly inexpensive(~$12 for a 12 pack) craft beer. I recommend their Adirondack Trail Mix so you can try out different kinds.

I'd pay a good price if it was good and worth it

I have no idea whats available in Texas

Start with something like a pale ale. Try to find something local.

Worth it is pretty subjective. It's best that you first find out what styles of beer you like rather than jump in on the pricey stuff that you might not even like.

I mean some stuff is like $8 for an 11 ounce bottle, but an inexperienced beer drinker may not even like it.

Some good microbreweries that should be available nationwide are Founders, Bells, and Rogue. They've got plenty of different styles, but some can get pretty expensive.

Rouge is available nation wide?

Yeah I'm pretty sure, they're fairly big. I've even seen it in bars that have tiny selections of craft beers.

EDIT: Here's a list of where it's available, Texas is included. http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/distribution/589/

Shit, looks like Founders and Bells aren't as widely available as I thought. Although I think Bells is expanding.

They don't make it close to Texas as far as I know...

Chocolate Cake Shots:

That's all you need to know. They're fun, They're interesting, They are strong. They don't taste like alcohol. Women love them. Then they will love you.

It's not a "hang out at home getting drunk" drink. It's a "be a hit at the party" drink.
Learn it. Love it.

Hah! I do love me some tequila every once and awhile. But generally, I'm a wine person Razz

I second Rouge...their Pumpkin Patch Ale is awesome.

Gin and Gin. its like Gin and Tonic but with Gin instead of Tonic.

You might be using really shitty alcohol if you can still taste the vodka in mixed drinks. *Typically, if it comes in a plastic bottle I'd steer clear. The really cheap stuff tastes like chlorine where as the high end stuff tastes like nothing.

Try out a Whiskey Sour, I use rye whiskey but you can also use bourbon. Get some frozen lemonade concentrate and some fresh lemon. 1oz whiskey, 2oz frozen concentrate, 1/4 to 1/2 lemon sqeezed. You could add a bit of water if it's too sweet or tart but god damn it's a good summer drink.

Spiced rum and ginger ale is good.

Beer is a whole other story, like everyone has said, find one you like and then go from there. I didn't start liking beer till I was 17 when I was working outside, painting my dads pergola. It was hot as hell and I was out there all day. He brought be an amstel light with ice in it after I was done. It was the best thing I had ever tasted and the rest is history.

Rouge beer is usually good, but I got the bacon one a few months back on a whim... tasted fucking awful.

Wines come in all different tastes. If you don't like white wines, try for a red, or a rose.

Stay away from wine. It's for whiners, little girls and men that just had their ears ripped off.

Smirnoff ice and mikes hard lemonade barely tastes like alcohol at all, and is still like 6%. But thats what 15 year old girls drink....

You could also try making jello shots...

Well Mike's Hard Lemonade targets their advertising at men now, so you could probably pull it off while still being manly. Just grow a beard first to be safe.

If the bitterness of white wine gets to you, try a Moscato. Or Gewurztraminer, both are sweet so they shouldn't be bitter at all.

As soon as I learn what I drank last night, drink that. Woke up at a friends house about 20 minutes ago. Just got home. Have no idea how I got there, but my car was there.
