I bought a bottle of Absolut as my first liquor to try for my 21st birthday and I still haven't cracked it open and tried it. What's Veeky Forums's opinion, and what should I try afterward? Note that I am serious, I've never drank any alcohol before.
(I'll probably try some while I'm reading.)
Levi Flores
mix in so much crystal light you can't taste the alcohol, then drink it like it's crystal light.
Juan Hughes
I don't have any right now, but I can buy some tomorrow. I can't be fucked to go to the store this late at night
Parker Davis
First time ever? Do a shot.
Kayden Clark
I really want to, but it smells like fruity rubbing alcohol and I'm having trouble getting over that
Brody Price
I never did it myself, but girls in college used to do it with plastic jug vodka and they would go to the hospital. one chick in my dorm building died from it. it's pretty hardcore.
or you can just drink it straight or mix it with some seltzer (the glass bottle kind) and a wedge of lemon, which is more like how a regular person might drink it.
Mason White
DO IT FAGGOT
Logan Williams
get a strong flavored juice drink or soda to drink immediately after doing the shot. after two or three you'll be fine.
Ryder Wilson
Best bet..screwdriver...oj and vodka Can't beat the classics Cranberry juice is nice Honestly vodka literally just.makes things alcoholic Gatorade Kool said Etc
Josiah Anderson
Alright, I'll go get myself a coke as a chaser for now and I'll see if that helps
Angel Young
fuck these plebs op, just throw it in with some cranberry juice and you're set
Ayden Ross
It goes pretty good with dr pepper or orange juice. Ever nicer if you have ice in.
Anthony Sanders
Fucking hell, it tastes like rubbing alcohol and fire, but... it's kinda pleasantly fruity somehow
Grayson Edwards
I wouldn't describe it as particularly "smooth..." it burns all the way down and sits in your chest. Is there any vodka that's not quite as harsh as that?
Adam Campbell
maybe the flavored smirnoff for women?
if you don't want to drink it straight then mix it to dilute it a bit. it won't be as harsh.
Adam Fisher
I like a good rum more than vodka. Mount Gay Eclipse or Appleton Estate V/X or their more expensive ones.
William James
I'll keep that in mind
Jace Young
You waited until you're 21 so you're clearly a massive faggot. almost beyond measure I'd recommend mixing 1 part vodka with 9 parts Coca Cola. Then suck another mans dick
Kevin Gonzalez
You can mix vodka with literally any-fucking-thing. Lemonade, soda, tonic, slushies... The list goes on.
Go fucking nuts, man.
Jonathan Ross
just do what said and mix a few shots of vodka into a massive gallon of a fruit drink.
Vodka gets masked so easily you'll just get schlocked without the taste that you can't fucking handle for some reason.
Dylan Harris
I am gay, thank you so much for your myriad compliments :*)
Logan Rodriguez
I didn't mean gay as in gay. I meant gay as in man up and drink some vodka. It's nice chilled in the freezer
Leo Perez
I have a Russian friend who insists that the best way to chase a shot of vodka is to take a bite out of a picke. I dunno if that's authentic or if he's just bullshitting, but it IS damn tasty.
Liam Cooper
PICKLE dammit
Jason Kelly
take a shot bitch, you'll really want a glass of soda or water to chase it with though
Tyler Diaz
I did, friendo and chased it with some coke. Then had another. Nice warm feeling
Henry Jenkins
You dun goofed. It's mixing vodka.
Belvedere is the best vodka
Blake Lee
That's what I read but after trying it it's not so bad neat. I'll try Belvedere next time though
Benjamin Parker
You should try some aquavit If you can get your hand on it.

There's dirt cheap vodka, which will taste like a hospital even when heavily diluted. Mix this with orange or cranberry juice or any juice/soda you like and get hammered on the cheap. It's not worth it to attempt a nice cocktail with this.
There decent vodka, like Absolut, which can be used in countless mixed drinks or taken in shots straight out of the freezer. I recommend making a Moscow Mule, which is easy, refreshing, tasty and has a nice kick of ginger to it.
Then there's ridiculously expensive vodka, which you should take a bunch of selfies with for instagram and snapchat. It will come in a really pretty or unique bottle, and will go down a tiny bit smoother than something you could have bought for 1/4 the price.
Angel Anderson
Shut vodka. Get Russian Standard or Tito's.
Josiah Adams
it's shit, just down it
Nolan Cox
White Russian, you fag.one to one Kahlua and vodka in a glass with ice. Fill the rest with whole milk.
Enjoy.
Jose Gomez
Here's a tip.
SPA Cactus/lemon completely negates the Vodka taste. Enjoy and try not to drink yourself to death. Also avoid eating TOO much before drinking if you want to enjoy yourself.
Carson Hernandez
>Note that I am serious, I've never drank any alcohol before. Never had a beer? Never went to a party?
David James
OP go get new Amsterdam gin instead, it's almost flavorless and goes down like water, no burning. It's my favorite get drunk quick liquor even if it's shit and cheap compared to other good gin
Aiden Clark
Vodka is fucking disgusting, just like most alcoholic drinks Try gintonic instead
Justin Mitchell
No m8 Will try
Carson Miller
It's disgusting. It tastes really foul to me. Guess it's meant to be mixed.
Nathaniel Ortiz
Most people seem to say that it's really bitter or something like that, but I didn't get anything like that when I drank it. It was vaguely fruity, had a really bad burn.
Dominic Cruz
Vodka was my first lic too, but I'm not a big fan really. People swear they can tell the difference between ketel one, grey goose, and absolut but really vodka is just tasteless potato rot. I used to say I liked whiskey the best but desu, that was before I found gin. Gin has a bitter mature flavor and it's not too hard to drink, even shots. Get it extra dry if you try it. (Also, vodka is the more popular favorite of the female sex, if that means anything to you~)
Grayson Cooper
Probably going to go for gin next based on recommendations so far
Idgaf if women prefer vodka, I'm not looking for women
James Evans
Absolut is like the coors lite of vodka, it's everywhere and tastes like absolut shit, the majority of places that use it is for vodka redbull or similar.
This guy is in the right direction. Ive tried a gin and pineapple juice drink and actually fairly enjoyed it. It's easy and tastes not much like alcohol
