G+T with a twist of lime or lemon > vodka drinks
Gin and bitter lemon is good as well.
Personally I'm not into sweet drinks anymore, I would rather have my soda side by side with alcohol, or better yet drop the soda.

If your vodka tastes like nothing, you're priorities are wrong. If you pick alcohol trying to avoid flavour, you're priorities are way wrong.

Go back to drinking Purple Jesus, ignorant "Animal House" wannabe.

i prefer vodka to gin, but gin with 7-up and a lemon slice works fine.

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

stole the words right outta my head. haven't drank gin in ages though. used to drink Lemon Gin wayyyy back when as a teenager experimenting booze.
 

I love gin.
You're turning your booze into a fruity pansy drink, you have an undeveloped palate.

You have much to learn about alcohols if you think gin is the worst. Lots of EV4L schnaps/herb liquers has been made.
