I tried the watermelon flavor and really like it. Tastes more of an non-sweet soda. What other kind of alcohol is like that?

Are you talking about the flavored vodka or those terrible wine cooler type products (malt beverages)?

If you want something that's decent tasting and not that expensive, go with something like Woodchuck cider. I don't normally drink it, but a local bar was running a promotion for it with a beer and a pint glass for 2 bucks.

I always thought the watermelon tasted pretty sh!tty. I prefer whiskey sours; Smirnoff vanilla twist vodka is also decent.

Try some Goldschläger. The Wikipedia article fails to mention that the reformulation also significantly decreased the alcohol content, as it when it orginally stormed the drinking scene, it was on par with Bacardi 151 proof-wise and caused a number of not-so-kind alcohol related "accidents".

woodchuck ftw.

I miss having a bar that has it on tap (my water hole in college out in PA had it on tap, but in the NYC area, I'm lucky to even find it in bottles)

I love Smirnoff Ice Triple Black. I drink it when I don't want to get hammered, as it has the same alcohol content as beer.

Ugh those girly malt drinks are sh!t. I don't know how people drink those... besides tasting like crap they make my stomach hurt like hell.
