vodka thread

[GunGator]

Vodka is good, but I hate flavors. Everything I drink is beer or just straight...okay that sounds really bad haha.

I used to be big on Gin and soda water, then over did it during the 2007 UF-UK game. Switched to Absolut vodka and soda, now just drink whiskey, lost my taste for clear liquor.

Love Grey Goose but usually end up buying Svedka. It's not bad for the price.

I'm telling ya folks if you haven't tried Tito's - you are missing out on a great Vodka for a great price!

Have to agree with SPG on this one, have always liked the Goose, Belvedere, Kettle One, but Tito's is better, made in the USA and priced right!

It's Great to be a Florida Gator!

Oh god Skol! The alcohol distributors would give that rot gut to us for free when we had a restaurant.

Yes...I would drink it rather than our top shelf stuff to save money...

As I mentioned, I like Tito's. But I do remember feeling on top of the world many many years ago when I would go out on a Saturday night wearing an old pair of blue jeans with a half pint of Skol in one pocket and a $10 bill in the other pocket. You just knew it was going to be a great night. I would give up the fancy martinis etc. to go back to those days.

Put the gin in your bloody. You'll never go back. Seriously.

I'm a big Firefly fan. Either on the rocks or with a splash of water...

Got wicked drunk off cheap ass Burnetts back in college. Left for the weekend, came back two days later and I could smell it through the freezer door. Nope. Bourbon man these days.

Just and aside, but if you like Vodka that well, you might try Gin for a change up. If so, Bombay Sapphire is outstanding.

Most don't know it but Gin & Vodka are actually like 99% identical in makeup...only difference is gin uses juniper berries.

You must be new at this.

That's so funny that you mention Skol. We have been hitting that recently because it is so damned cheap. I was worried about a hangover the first time I had it, but alas I felt just fine in the am. So for a mere $12.85 (that's after tax) I can enjoy a 1.75 for the same price as a 12pk of beer that would normally just get me a begining buzz and ready to start real drinking. Plus, I have found since I have gotten older that I can't drink beer and eat. I can maybe munch some on chips and salsa but if I eat anything, anything of substance I am done drinking beer. I just feel so bloated and just can't even do it. I love my beer, but booze is it for me.

[anstro76]

^^^ yeah i like booze with my food too
