    HINT: Theoretically, try mixing it with coke and ice.

    My 21 year old friend doesnt like carbonated drinks, or fruit drinks for that matter. THat leaves him little to drink. He will try some irish cream next, he has heard that is good. He could only have about 1.5 shots of the captain morgan, as it was the 100 proof version, very strong, bad tasting. I don't think that affected him to much though

    OK then, I suggest shot's of Bacardi 151 or Everclear 190 proof if "they" are feeling particularly macho. 151 and a beer chaser was my drink of choice when I was "their" age.

    Dairy and alcohol have proven to be a bad combination when drunken in copious amounts, good luck... if "they"go that route.

    Look at it this way, the bar has been set so low that the next drink has to surpass it.

    my company's founders are from the midwest and have a strong affinity toward Malört. Every new employee has to take shots as part of the onboarding process.

    Hmm, maybe that little amount did affect me. I seem very awake and am saying some weird stuff. Maybe not the best idea to start with 50% alcohol and be on a Wednesday. Oh well, class isn't until 10:50 tomorrow. But that is only 9 hours away.

    And I am still not very tired yet. And still seem to be talking a lot, but now people went to sleep, so I guess I am just talking here. Idk why. Idk, there is no way I can still be drunk I drank it like 2 hours ago. But then again, my actions speak differently.

    I have a bottle of Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold here (vanilla rum). I don't drink, but I've used it multiple times to flambé apple crepes. It tastes quite well that way. I think other variations of Captain Morgan might taste different.

    Welcome to college. When drinking alcohol, please avoid driving and/or purchasing stereo equipment.

    Plenty of booze in the world that might be a better jumping off point. Hard Cider maybe? Lots of liquors that mix super well in coffee. I remember back when my dad would give me coffee with a shot of Amaretto, and my friend's father would give us beer mixed with ginger ale...

    Avoid the blends, go for single malt and always keep a glass of water on the side to flush away the aftertaste if you do not like the liquor.

    Learn to smell and taste first. Get to know what works well with what and then start mixing.

    You will have more fun instead of puking in the corner...

    In general, if you have to hide the taste of a liquor by mixing, then you shouldn't drink it. If you want to get drunk, or prevent people from pressuring you to get drunk, Everclear is the most efficient.

    Perhaps we should start a new thread for our younger members on how to actually enjoy alcohol without endangering themselves. A bit like a newbie advice thread for audio.

    If you don't like it, don't do it, unless it is eating vegetables. Only manchildren don't eat veggies. Other than that, find something you like and enjoy it in moderation while watching your friends act like idiots.

    Wow, comment on drinking here gets much more replys than an audio comment. @Gaspasser don't worry, would never drink and drive. I could see myself buying something though...
    @ButtUglyJeff Yes, I would have though there would be a better option, but this is what we had on hand. It didn't smell bad. Tasted bad and burned though... I don't like apples/cider or coffee, so that's not the way to go

    @Deep Funk the captain morgan didn't smell bad on its own. Like vanilla. But tasted strong.
    @fraggler that sounds like a good idea, somone make that guide
    @Kunlun I eat potatoes. That uh... counts as a vegetable, kinda. SO far I have just been drinking nothing and watching my friends act like idiots. But ill join in a bit If i can find something that isn't terrible.

    What beverages do you normally enjoy? Almost anything has a cocktail variant. Even RedBull.......

    I started a thread. Spent too much time and barely scratched the surface of what could be shared. Will return to it later once I get some real work done.

    @spwath; Rum and Black.

    It used to be a bit of a girlie drink back in the day when my generation was too young to be doing what we were doing, but wtf: it is is delicious and it isn't fizzy. Oh, That's rum and blackcurrant juice, in case the terminology is different over there.

    I've been off alcohol for thirteen years now. but, so far as rum goes, *Pusser's* was the thing.
