Making vodka go down easier.

I had forgotten until just now how much I dislike vodka.

Sadly I now have several litres of it and need to get through them by Sunday night. Is there a trick to making it go down easier, avoiding the obvious "put it in something else like coke or juice" approach, since I'm already in my trackie bottoms and don't really want to have to get dressed to go to the shop again.

Anyone have any ideas?

Why do you HAVE to?

Well, the obvious is to mix it. With anything you have, try every kind of squash/juice etc you have and see what tastes nice :P
Or hold your nose while drinking it?

Or just deal with it, stuff like vodka seems (to me) to taste less **** once you have started getting drunk.

Because I have a very strict timetable of getting wasted beyond belief to keep to this weekend so I won't have time to contemplate the ****ing week I've had.

I guess you're right, once I get past the initial "dear God why!!" phase, I probably won't notice anymore. Cheers.

Well, it is vodka, so i'm sure even flat coke mixed in would taste better, so trying everything & anything might help.

Or, if you have lots of time, make them in to jelly shots ;D

Don't breathe as you take the shot and then follow it with something very, very sweet. When I didn't have time to pre-drink, I would down vodka shots and chase with undiluted squash.

It's not the best and it's pretty grim, either way - but it's the easiest way to take vodka shots, I find. At least until you're drunk enough to not notice the varnish-y taste anymore.

Plus I have a major sweet-tooth...
it's nice with tea, you have to wait for the tea to cool down quite a bit first, otherwise the alcohol will evaporate and you'll just have horrible tea.

Alternatively, you could man up and get it down you.

Make sure it's cool as possible first, mix with whatevers around.

If you do skittles it'll need straining & you'll only want one colour. Gummy sweets are good to dissolve in it... Or saturated sugar solution? :biggrin:
three choices:

a) get yo' bum moving, in yo' trackies, and buy yo'self some lemonade
b) man up, down it

my favourite option:

c) don't drink it.

This idea intrigues me. Once I get a bit more down me I shall look into it.

That's another vote for MtFU, looking like we're going to have a winner.

I'm suspicious of this plan, if I'm honest.

Alcoholic tea. The Britishness inherent in this plan appeals to me. Milk or no milk?
