Well last night I got pretty smashed (pacing myself as well) on 8 shots of sambuca. Bear in mind I am 163cm/ 5'4 tall and weigh 133lb/ 9 stone 7. I think I did pretty well. Sambuca is vile to drink, it burns afterwards, very strong in taste and percentage, it's anise. No matter what it always makes me vomit later on. Probably because I don't eat just before drinking, I eat a few hours before. Also, I only like to eat liquorice not have the flavouring in a drink. What alcoholic drink can't you stand? What makes you sick?

    I don't drink a lot, usually only on special occasions, and then it may be a pre dinner cocktail and wine with my meal.... But I can't drink brown. Urgh. Whiskey, bourbon, rum... If it's coloured brown it tastes revolting, even mixed up in a cocktail!

    Anything that has a cardboard aftertaste.

    So... Grape koolaid will hide the smell of alcohol fairly effectively, but the only thing we got our hands on in high school with any regularity was SoCo.

    I cannot recommend grape koolaid and Southern Comfort cocktails. It's never made me puke, but dear god is it vile. As an adult, I have a friend who drinks SoCo and champagne together on purpose, and I keep rethinking my childhood wondering if he went to high school with me and I just never noticed...

    Malibu! I used to love it when I was younger, like most teenage girls. However being thrown up on by someone who's just consumed the majority of a bottle really is a good way to put you off something....

    Why would you keep drinking it if you don't like it?

    I hate stout beers. Well most beer except light froo froo ones like Blue Moon.

    I agree with this (except I do like an occasionally Spanish Coffee). I also cannot stand the smell or taste of gin.

    Hmm.. I think I am much more open minded towards alcohol (used to think Whiskey was the devil's spawn) than I used to be. However, I got extremely drunk around New Year's, leading to a three day hangover. Now fireball whiskey sounds absolutely disgusting, as does spiced cider.
