You'll have to develop your own taste. If you don't care what women think then buy whatever you want. If you care, stay away from drinks that "look fruity," margaritas & daquiris in public, which contain light colored liquor & fruit juice and are dressed in tall, feminine looking bar glasses with cherries, limes and a STRAW. When in private, you can drink what you want! Your only use for a straw is to finish mixing a poorly made drink that a bartender made. NEVER drink liquor out of a straw and all of your drinks should be undressed(maybe tequila shots are an exception).

Here are the various common types of liquor:

  • Whiskey(or Bourbon) - Cheap brown liquor, generally disgusting tasting(to me), some are ok though
  • Cognac - Refined whiskey, generally smooth tasting
  • Rum - Dark like whiskey, but generally flavored
  • Gin - stong, twisted taste, hard to explain.... sorta like a strong peppermint taste
  • Vodka - Clear and distilled, literally like water
  • Tequila - Spanish version of vodka, much stronger (drink with caution)
Any mixed drink you do get, always use house liquor.... for example if you buy a Screwdriver (Vodka and OJ), you can order it with the "house vodka" or you can order it with a more expensive vodka.... like Grey Goose. It's always cheaper with the house liquor regardless.

The exotic drinks that women generally buy have about 2-4 different types of liquor and 1-2 types of juice.

Men generally buy the combo drinks: Crown/Henessee & Coke, Captain Morgan & Dr. Pepper.... if your not a heavy drinker or if you don't know if you'll like a drink, then order a "short!" Most bartenders will give you the short anyways unless you specify. The "short" is a 8 ounce wide cup or glass. You can order these drinks in a "tall" or "double" glass also. It costs more (like 7-10 depending on location/area). If you're comfortable with a drink, order the double! It'll save you frustration when it disappears quickly and another long wait in line at the bar.

Beer is an acquired taste, but if you're already drink, you won't be able to tell much difference. Beer comes in bottles(cheapest), mugs or pitchers(moderate) or buckets (in the south or other country places). Buckets are just simply 6-8 individual bottle of beer in a medium size metal ice bucket. A whole table can share that. Pitchers and mugs are for the professional beer drinker whi can handle more that a couple of beers in a night.

These are the basics to ordering drinks. I have more info if you need it.

your stars are but dust on my shoes
I only fukk with tequila, figures tho cause I'm mexican.

If you ever feel like drinking tequila, that herradura silver is like water.

if you feel like sipping on something rather than taking shots, mix tequila with squirt, you'll be straight. even add a slice of lime in there and it'll taste even better.:banderas:

out here we have a store that sells ziplock bags with all sorts of drinks in it, so that when you mix em they taste like a specific flavor. my favorite is one called watermelon jolly rancher, has a small bottle of seagrams, bottle of the pink mike hards lemonade, and two other small bottles. sipping on that mix will have you straight, but never too fukked up.



I need to chill on the alcohol though.:mjcry:

Casually getting hammered - tequila soda to maintain hydration

Rapidly getting hammered - shots of bourbon easily

Rapidly getting hammered at a bar alone - dry martini because it's basically a shot you drink more casually

Already hammered - red stripe great easy drinking beer

Was hammered last night - michelada mexican beer based bloody mary for breakfast

Still hungover at dinner - IPA

Night cap - hennessey

Long island-terrible from most standard bars so make sure you go to a craft one
Whiskey/coke
red wine- merlot, red blend and cabernet
mimosas or screwdrivers- homemade

don't go to shyly bars for your first drink. start the night somewhere nice with a rep for good cocktails. get the quality stuff

end the night with the lower stuff if you're trying to get wrecked

be responsible. get uBER or lyft beforehand, don't over do it (4 drinks max), avoid a hangover and match each drink with a glass of water. hangovers are the worst shyt ever.
