Anyone else not like liquor?


I have tried for years, and I still enjoy a mixed drink occasionally but I truly can’t stand the taste of liquor and I’m not sure how anyone does. It sounds good, I see pics of margaritas and martinis but it’s just never enjoyable. I do like bloody Mary’s, however.

I don't touch liquor. It's too strong and it's expensive. I always thought it was silly to see someone pay money for a thimble's worth of a drink anyway.

reply

Well it’s the same amount of alcohol as a beer or glass of wine, just a smaller quantity but yes it looks silly. I just can’t stand the taste, I’d rather have a beer and enjoy it.

reply

Yeah, even if the taste is good, it goes away quickly. When I'm at a party and do a shot, afterwards I'm like 'now what?'. I look and feel stupid without a drink in my hand... So I always have a beer ready to wash it down.

reply

I don't drink at all. I used to a little to "take the edge off", but I don't it makes you stupid and it's bad for your health. I do holistic things instead.

Like vaporize cannabis?

reply

LOL. No, that will kill you quick! I'd recommend Kava Kava as a good alternative to everything!

reply

How would cannabis, in any form, “kill” you quick? 🤔Vaporizing is one of the healthiest ways of consuming it.

reply

You never heard of vaping illness? Vapers are dropping dead because the oil has toxins that destroy the lungs.

reply

lol, oh man. That article was about people using home made equipment and experimental concoctions. The anti-vaping crowd has been very bad for nicotine addicts. Zero evidence that the water vapor causes trouble with others yet the 2nd hand smoke crusaders are all over it too.

I’m not talking about vaping oil I’m talking about vaporizing flower old school style

Straight edge, all the way for me. Life unimpaired is REAL life and it's wonderful!

Caffeine?

reply

Sure. :)

The only thing I really don't like is gin - tastes like perfume to me. I don't drink scotch either, but everything else is great - especially bourbon and tequila.

reply

Not wild about much of it. Tequila being the worst 🤮. I do enjoy drinks mixed with vodka or rum now and then.

I'm very fond of the stuff myself. If you have any you don't want, I'll gladly take it off your hands.

But keep the Bloody Mary mix. I tried one, a long time ago. I couldn't finish it. I just had to give it back to the bartender and ask him to dump it.

reply

Used to love it. Drank quite a bit in high school and many years beyond. Lost my love of the buzz though. Too many regrets from the valleys of judgement impairment. More good times than regrets but I prefer the control.

reply

Right there with ya.

reply

I suggest you try a shot of every liquor ever made until you find the one you like.

reply

I’ve had plenty, they all have a strong alcohol taste, obviously to different degrees.

reply

i don't like it
