just turned 21 and about to head to the liquor store for my first adult purchase. I'm torn between Bailey's and any kind of vodka. On the one hand I'd love some creamy mixed drink with chocolate for a special birthday treat. On the other had I want to get blitzed out of my mind before the sun goes down. I drink vodka all the time but have never touched bailey's Can anyone describe it to me?

Regular baileys tastes a bit like chocolate milk with a slight alcohol twinge. I hate drinking it straight, let alone getting drunk on it because it tends to curdle in your stomach.

>> No.6616444

>>6616356
Like caramel, but thinner. Basically think of caramel flavoured milk with a strong alcohol taste, but not overpowering.

I really like it but I'm biased. I used to drink it with my mom when I was young and the nostalgia always makes it tricky to gauge.

Do not get Bailey's, you can have one glass of it and after that the rest of the bottle is the second worst shit you've ever drank.

I don't think that's it, there's some inherent quality of disgustiveness(?) in it that starts kicking in harder and harder with every sip you take. I've tried some other cream liqueurs too and they don't have it.

Just get a big handle of Popov's vodka and drink it until you puke. There is no difference in the tastes of cheap and expensive vodka and anyone who says otherwise is a fucking twat trying to impress someone or seem cultured.

I'll mix it with something. I've got chocolate milk powder and some 2% lying around.

I read it tastes like rubbing alcohol. Then again so does SKYY. I guess you're right.

that does look good. What's the price compared to bailey's? Smallest for Bailey's is 20 bucks for 750 ml

Cheap vodka is going to be hella cheaper than baileys in terms of abv%.

>>6616527
>There is no difference in the tastes of cheap and expensive vodka
Now that's not exactly correct. When it comes to vodka and it's close relatives, it's true that even though price doesn't equal quality, even things that have more or less the same price can have noticeable differences in how "clean" the taste is.
There's not much point in buying expensive vodka, but I can tell from experience that if it's complete topkek quality you can taste it through no matter how much you water it down.

Seconding this, Amarula is amazing. It's the same price as Bailey's, atleast where I live, but it's like a hundred times better. Like it's so good you don't even want to waste it by mixing it with anything, for the same price as Bailey's which you practically have to mix with stuff.

This definitely, then from there if it's one of his first times getting drunk and he may or may not be big on alcohol in the future (it'll teach him a lesson he'll never forget if he does abuse it though, not good for you at all and no real benefit to the poison) then just slurp down some average beer after as you get drunker and pair it with lots of tasty junk comfort food and you'll be all good for the night. Gets to a point where your so drunk that unless you find something absolutely disgusting you'll be able to drink it if it'll get you just that slightly more drunk.

>> No.6621512

Carolan's, an off-brand of Bailey's, is better in my opinion. Doesn't have the sickly sort of sweetness that plague's Bailey's in my opinion. A nice simple cocktail is equal parts Carolan's and some Irish whiskey (I like Seagram's) poured over ice and stirred.

>> No.6621666

Carolans or Amarula OP, Baileys is overpriced and disgusting.

For Vodka, anything cheap + mixxer will do.

also good bourbon like Evan Williams white label, or scotch like highland queen 12.

If you just want to get fucked up, mixing something into cheap vodka is almost a waste of the mixer. I'd rather just slam the shot of vodka for the authentic deathwater experience, and chase it with the juice or soda or water or whatever.

You can drink whatever you want, just because I don't like it means stop drinking it. I thought it was self explanatory that I like scotch more then beer.
