My apologies for being a 22 year old generation z'er (younger than millennials) and that we largely don't drink alcohol because of how much it tastes like piss. I can't find any alcoholic beverage that tastes like soda like Sprite or coca cola or mountain dew, even Mike and Mike's fruity tasting beer and fruity alcohol tastes like piss.

Are people just slaves to their shit taste in parchments that they let themselves go drunk over it? What is the point of alcohol and why isn't there an alcoholic drinks that has alcohol but tastes like a sweet refreshing soda?

the best way to mask alcohol is cold
keep your spirits in the freezer
keep your mixers in the freezer until they're slush
blend ice

the other way is sour
use lime/lemon juice

the third way is sweet
make a simple sugar syrup, by simmering equal parts water & sugar for 10 mins

Mix chilled spirit with a mixer, sugar syrup, and lime

All of these.
When I was young I liked super-sweet drinks like midori sours, moscato, wine coolers, etc. Nowadays I still like sweet drinks, but I enjoy dry wine, weissbier and IPAs, somewhat dry cider, and actual cocktails. It's fine to enjoy sweet things, but after a while those 200 calorie cans of sodas will stop being refreshing and start being disgustingly syrupy to you. When that happens, you'll want to switch in mid-sweet beverages like lambrusco or proper tiki drinks (not the awful ones dripping with syrups, real ones like mai tais that balance the sweetness out with tangy juices and spicy rum).

When you're a child, you drink alcohol that tastes like soda because you can't stand the taste of alcoholic beverages. When you get older, you drink beverages that focus on the unique aged or fermented flavor of the alcohol. It's the difference between hamburger and steak.

How has no one mentioned scotch yet.

I'll admit I was like you got most of my life until I found scotch. Not in the way that I wanted everything to taste sweet (cuz I'm not retarded) but in that all alchol tasted bad to me.

I spent my youth drinking bourbon and most other spirits waiting for them to taste good. Like you watch movie and tv and watch manly men kick back the brown and actually enjoy it and I thought that would happen for me, it never did. I drank begrudgingly and to get drunk, never truly liking any alcohol.

But then I found scotch and it changed everything for me. I found something that I could definitively say tasted fucking delicious on my tongue. I drink it neat, I'll swish it around my mouth because it tastes so fucking good, it's the only thing I've ever found that I can wake up, hungover as shit, and still have a belt of because it doesn't make me gag in the least.

Bourbon is shit and tastes like sugar and corn, vodka is shit, rum is really shit, gin is an acquired taste, tequila is good but you have to work for it. But scotch, scotch may as well be honey on the tongue. It's one of the best things in life, it's one of my favorite things about waking up in the morning, it's one of my reasons for living just behind anal sex and just ahead of steak.

It's God tier, and you should try it.

Alcohol tastes bad, but with the right balance of flavours, an alcoholic drink can be nice.

Lager is the best drink in the world, but you can only appreciate it after you have acquired a taste for it. Most people acquire the taste through peer-pressure, but once you have it, it's a great thing. Vodka and tonic and sparkling white wine are also really delicious because the bitterness counteracts the alcohol flavour so you end up with a very refreshing drink.

A lot of people kid themselves into believing that the addictive property of alcohol doesn't play any role. "I just like the flavour!" and "You can drink without wanting to get drunk you know!" are both true, but people who say such things are usually in deep denial about their own addiction. Getting drunk feels great; it gives you control of your mood. You can make yourself feel happy regardless of what happened earlier. That is 90% of why people drink alcohol.

Yeah no there can be no best drink in the world because that would excuse things such as taste and preference. unlike sports or computers there cant be a best drink/food or music because someone else is going to like somethings taste or sound more another person and they are objectively right when they say that they like something more. Sports and computers can be measured and put on a scale, you cant do this with food, drink and music among other things and still be right because despite what everyone says if you think a burger cooked at Mac Donald's more than one at a nice restaurant then your right to say that the one from maccas is better.
