Cheap/Preferred Liquor Thread

[Anger]

Alright. So we've got a beer thread going. Figured we should have a liquor thread going as well. Beer is alot more varied than liquor, so this thread should have alot more cohesion i'm hoping.

Post your favorite "i wanna get tanked for cheap" liquors and your favorite "i dont mind spending more for quality" liquors or, alternatively, mixed drinks/coctails! Bonus points if you include the recipe for your coctail!

LETS GET TANKED FOR CHEAP:

Yeah, I'm a cheap date. Can you tell i'm from Wisconsin? There are of course others, but this is just to get things rolling!

[azeth]

the new jack daniels honey whiskey is surprisingly not bad for cheap disgusting whiskey.

[Peatree]

No such thing as a good cheap whisky. Get wax on the bottle, at a minimum, or go home.

[azeth]

so you drink maker's mark, you're saying? ^

Wax on bottle and still fairly cheap!

At a minimum no less.

Damnit, Azeth beat me to it.

Decent whiskey with no wax:

Since it's already been posted, I usually don't drink hard alcohol due to me usually drinking the whole bottle in one sitting but I almost always go for Makers. Shit is bomb as fuck.

I love gin, don't meet a lot of gin drinkers but this is a decently cheap gin and look at the fancy bottle!

uuuuugh Gin. christmas in a bottle.

[Ektar]

freshman year of college I rlyrly wanted to get drunk and all we had was the end of a bottle of gin. I ripped 7 shots in rapid succession and it was gross.

The sight of gin makes me unhappy.
The smell of gin revolts me.
The taste of gin makes me dry heave.

I do like gin and tonics though..

[deakolt]

Best Mixed Drank For Getting Fucking Smashed:

Vodka (prefer at least Grey Goose although it works with shitty vodka) + Tang Powder + Water.

approximately 50-80% vodka, rest water, add tang powder to taste.

This drink can be made to taste like slightly bitter orange juice. And it has the kick of 151 shots with the smoothness of a brass monkey.

We have dubbed it Orange Drank. watch out if you try this at home kids. it is a real creeper

My favorite is Hendrick's gin and any decent tonic.

Protip: Swap out the lime wedge for a cucumber slice.

Man, I really don't see the appeal. I know alot of people that drink Gin + Tonics but meh. Gotta go with Ektar on this one, Gin just makes me wish to vomit.

[quellren]

....just makes me wish to vomit.

I feel the same way about Tequila.
To each, their own.

[Shannacore]

Dark n' Stormys are super delicious.

* 2 ounces dark rum
* 3 ounces ginger beer
* 1/2 ounce lime juice

[Knuckle]

The only straight up liqour I truly appreciate is Hendricks Gin. Everything else needs to be mixed or taken as a shot. That said, Hendricks gin with a few thin slices of cucumber(yes cucumber), and a splash of tonic, on the rocks is the ultimate drink for just kicking back.

Bourbon: Eagle Rare 10yr is the best thing you can get under $35/bottle imo. Any of the buffalo trace antiquities collections (George T Stagg, William larue weller, etc) are all amazing if you want to spend some cash, as is pappy van winkle 15yr if you can find it.

Single malt: Aberlour a'bunadh is my favorite here. I like speyside malts with relatively low peatiness. Preferably something finished in sherry barrels. I also have a thing for Glenlivet Nadurra because it tastes so clean. I've never found a good cheap scotch. The cheapest thing i'll drink here is macallan 10 or 12.

Blended: Crown XR if you're dropping dough. Fourty Creek is good for the cheap stuff

Irish: Bushmills black is my favorite of the "cheaper" irish whiskies that i've tried, but I tend to pick another beverage if i have the choice.

Bombay Sapphire is my favorite gin. I've not really had other gins I found tolerable for a gin and tonic.

I am probably also the only person my age that even drinks gin and tonic, but owell.

[hedbonker]

Grab a bottle of Mots or any other 100% apple juice (100% with NO PRESERVATIVES). Get a little pack of regular yeast and a cup of sugar. Dump some of the juice to make room for the extra stuff. Pour in the sugar and the yeast. Replace the cap and shake real well.

Now loosen up the cap a bit. Store in a dark, warm place for a 3 to 4 days.

Enjoy!

Buddy finally brought this in from his parent's liquor store, really hard to find.

Tonight we'll be drinking this with 100% grape juice for some Pb&J flavor.

edit: also, nut licker.

imho ditch the grape juice, i see projectile vomiting in your future. if you're a smoker, pb&j vodka shots and a grape swisher blunt sounds yum. peach optimo + green monster is pretty good too.

[Deadmantis]

Luksusowa Potato Vodka straight outta Poland, pretty smooth and mixes well with most anything. 1.75L is under 25 bucks. :)
Looking for Tang powder to make some of that "Orange Drank"...

[azeth]

So the grape juice & pb vodka combo was actually good, though with that specific vodka brand i suggest going 50/50 on the mix b/c the vodka is really smooth and youll need more peanut butter flavor for a nice balance.

no offense but flavored blunts to me mask the taste of great weed..

they are awesome if your blowing the backyard boogie tho... makes it taste like someting other than schwag

[JenJen]

red wine and coke in a plastic bag with a straw, on the side of the road in the summer time = heavenly.

Sounds like Capri Sun for big kids. I wanna try it!
Reminds me of Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Danny Devito drinking box wine out of a diet coke can :D

I'm jelly, will try to keep an eye out for it.

This is something I'm sure some of you had but it really is delicious. Take Capri Sun fruit punch flavor and pour it into a cup, add malibu.

seriously? he threw up a picture of pb vodka. why would you use a sweet for that? doesn't fit the theme at all. way to take things way out of context :rolleyes:

and we vape most of the time anyway. becomes a pain in the ass with more than 3 people hitting the bag though. fav blunt? vanilla flavor garcia y vega

[Bardalicious]

Correction:

Irish Whiskey Liqueur

The main focus is on the sweet butterscotch notes. It's pretty delicious though and drinks fucking smooth for 100 proof.

Lauders Scotch... cheap n' easy

Didn't have any Tang drink mix handy but I did find some packets of Wyler's Grapeade. So I made some Grape Drank. It is also a creeper. I drank a king sized cup after work then fell asleep in my computer chair, woke up about an hour later and stumbled around the house for awhile. Good stuff...

I don't remember what these were, but they were mad tasty. Flavored vodka and something else.

I've been on a pretty big margarita kick lately. Has been my drink of choice when I'm out lately. Sooo taaasttyyy.


I bought a cocktail book recently. There's like, 400-something drinks in it. I look forward to trying new things~

[nalkin]

Holy mother, you actually buy drinks at sporting events? Aren't those like 5 dollars a pop?

That was like, $8, lol. First major league baseball game, + we were there to see the boyfriends favorite team. We were okay with being a little frivolous.

[Shannacore]

Plus I got a kool Rockies cup, that's worth $8 rite?????

Can't believe no one mentioned the Mad Dog...

Ya I actually like these. Sorta girly but a nice changeup when rum&coke (my go to drink) has gotten stale.


Anyway since this thread is about GETTING RIPPED 4 CHEAP:

I'm going to kind of cheat here, but the best way would be to drink your own brew. My brother-in-law does this and brews all kinds of crazy stuff.


My college dorm life was dominated by Miller High Life, and those gigantic plastic jugs of california red wine. Can't imagine lowering my standards to either of those now, but it did the trick. Lot of JD too. $2 long islands at the bar.

For a time, I was drinking Steel Reserves (that's malt liquor bros) when I wanted the fastest dirtiest drunk you can get. God forbid I drink that kind of shit now. I also tried 4loko once.


I don't really drink cheaply (or as much) now. I think the bottle of sake I got at the azn market last weekend is the "cheapest" stuff I've bought in a while.

[Sickle]

Canadian Club and Coke... handle is like 20 bucks and gets me drunk a handful of nights playing EQ.
