Adding sugared drinks with vodka

I find that if I drink alcohol that is sweetened with regular white sugar or something like it, I get a bad pain in my stomach. For instance, Koolaid. Real freshed squeezed OJ, less so. Now I just mix vodka with splenda type sweetened drinks, and it's not so bad.

Why does regular sugar sweetening for liquor affect the stomach more? I actually read online about other people complaining about the same thing.

I've never noticed that.

my typical vodka mix of choice is sprite + vodka + any flavor of pucker and a dash of sour mix.

I agree. But I think for some people, it's an extremely noticeable thing. Again, I have no idea why, which is the reason I ask in the first place.

I'm not sure but I think it may have something to do with what happens after you die.

It's a shame. But the only shame is that you can't match wits with somebody who's drunk :)

Who's matching wits? You're just asking stupid questions.

Maybe, but the only thing worse is that your sober mind can't answer the questions of a drunkard.

Do you actually have the balls sans the wit to tell me that the question I'm asking has not been asked by just about every living being?

You ask questions without valid answers.

I will give you the only logical answer. One that so few people have the intellectual honesty to give: I don't know. No one knows. Anyone who claims to know is lying to you and quite possibly to themselves.

The only way to know is to die. So the only logical answer to your question of what happens after death is to die and find out.

As for this thread, who knows why you get a tummy ache. Maybe it's because you get all tied up in knots over stupid fscking questions?

Please see my answer in the post you're talking about. I have nothing against you personally.

As for the actual question, it's an actual issue that I found to be true. Some hardcore research into the mechanics of alcohol processing will probably be the real answer.

Regardless, don't take my quips personally. You do have valuable contributions to make here, and I appreciate them.

OP I have had similar experiences as you've had. Vodka is still my favourite spirit though, it's the only one that can get me tipsy.

After a quick Google search I think the answer has something to do with the large amounts of Phosphoric Acid and how it effects the stomach.
