Top 5 Drinks I ever Drank
Something that I started doing in 2024 was drinking alcohol. At least intentionally. I have several stories from when I was younger where my dad pranked me into drinking alcohol by telling me it was soda or something else. Anyway, the main point is last year was the year I started drinking. And in my short time of drinking, I have had roughly 5 (at least to my memory) different kinds of drinks, and we are gonna be ranking all of them, starting from worst to best.
#5 Captain Morgan's Long Island Iced Tea
I made the unfortunate mistake of consuming this sorry excuse for a liquid last night. It was the most deceiving thing quite possibly in my entire life. I saw this in the fridge and I thought "wow! Iced tea and alcohol! What a delightfully pleasant combination of drinks! This will be a most quenching experience!". I was dead fucking wrong. The second this filth slipped down my throat I knew I had made a mistake. It was absolutely disgusting. The taste was almost indescribable other than there was a decent amount of spice in the drink (something like cinnamon). The heat was just the death cherry on top of this horriffic drink. Never EVER purchase this drink. You will regret it. Never in my life have I felt more like god is punishing me for drinking,
#4 Josh Wine
Josh Wine while not being outright offensive still gave me a terrible experience. The taste was fine, just like any other basic alcohol, although I can't remember the flavor because my memory of that experience is poor (likely due to the alcohol I guess). I also almost threw up but was able to stop myself. Not sure if this is the direct cause of the Josh Wine specifically but I think it's still noteworthy. The main drawback of the Josh Wine in my opinion was the hangover. It was my only and by far my worst hangover. I had a major headache not only the entire day afterward but also the next half of the day after that. It took me that long to acquire any headache medicine since unfortunately there was none at the place I was staying at. Although this could be chalked up to a personal failure I still blame the Josh for causing a headache that lasts that long without any medicinal intervention.
#3 White Claw
White Claw is honestly fine. In the taste department it's certainly better but nothing to write home about, but this also is because of its low alcohol content. I don't think I've ever gotten drunk off of purely just White Claw, which for me is kind of a big deal as that's the only real reason to drink IMO. But if you're just hanging out with some friends casually I would recommend White Claw for a slight amount of silliness. It doesn't interfere with my ability to play Mario Kart which makes it great for me.
# 2 My Friend's Special Lemonade + Beer + Welch's Grape Non Alcoholic Wine
Ok a little bit of context for this one. My friend works at a bar where he was paid to mix drinks This is to say he's pretty darn good at it. But at New Years this year he mixed me up a drink that was part beer part pink Lemonade alcohol thing, plus Welch Graoe Wine. This drink is special because it is the ONLY alcoholic drink I've ever had that tasted good. I'm not sure how much of an effect it had on me but honestly I dont think that is a major deal in this case because of how good the drink tasted. So yeah great drink. Hope I get to have something like that again. Also he made me a quesadilla which he absolutely did not fucking have to I love that man.
#1 Vodka
Now given my complaining throughout all of this I'm sure you've taken note of how much I dislike the taste of alcohol. It's kind of the main drawback in my opinion. Now alcohol is famous for tasting like basically straight alcohol (I know the type I usually have is at 40% al), meaning it would taste like absolute garbage, which it does. Now you might be thinking that if I get so up in arms about the taste of alcohol why would I possibly like Vodka? The answer is one word. Honesty. When I drink any other alcohol it is basically like the Devil disguising himself as an angel of light. It tries to pretty itself up, but at the end of the day, it's still alcohol. Vodka doesn't even try this. Vodka looks you in the eyes and says "I am Satan. Drink from me and I shall make you silly for a few hours". And I say "thank you Satan that sounds like a deal". Overall Vodka comes in first place purely for its ability to make people silly.
Well that was my ranking. If you agree or disagree please argue with me in the Cbox on the side. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!
