Rollin down the street, smokin indo, sippin on gin and juice

I mean, two of my favorite cocktails - negronis and martinis - are made from it, and of course, my gambling buddy, G&Ts. Also a favorite of me and my friends when we get table service in Singapore.

Nothing like an ice cold martini made with Dolin vermouth, lemon twist. Why bother with anything else?

You have amazing taste! My go-to martini is 4 parts Plymouth, 1 part Dolin, with a twist.

Vodka, rye or beer please. Otherwise, basically anything but gin.

What's wrong with you? Vodka is pointless.

The spirits hierarchy is obviously

Gin


Whiskey
Brandy
Rum


Tequila
Vodka

with other alcohols even lower.

Decent list, although as a Scotch and Irish whisk(e)y lover, I would put them above gin. Also occasionally enjoy absinthe or arak.

Vodka can be good, if it's a quality vodka, served chilled and neat. By quality, I mean something like Chopin, not some pure marketing crap like Grey Goose.

I like to get drunk as cheaply and (relatively) healthily as possible, and I don't want it to taste bad.
Vodka doesn't taste like anything, especially when mixed. If you just want to drink something cheap, bland, low in sugar, etc., just drink Famous Grouse and soda or something.

I will never understand the distaste for agave spirits, however. You really haven't lived until you've subbed the gin a negroni for mezcal!

Maybe I'll try it out. I don't actively dislike agave spirits--I just don't look forward to/seek them out in the same way I do the others.

Have you ever had a Gordon's Breakfast cocktail? I always push this to the bloody mary brunch crowd because bloody marys are weak mentality. Not the most beautiful drink in the world, but it certainly makes up for it in taste.
I drink Bloody Marys on flights because it's the only even remotely socially acceptable alcoholic drink to order at 7am on a weekday.

I remember the uproar when United stopped catering tomato juice on flights, lol. People who wouldn't even know where to find tomato juice in a grocery store drink tomato juice on flights, for some reason.
