I’m surprised no one has mentioned Svedka vodka. I once made the mistake of trying to keep up with a transplanted Russian and he swore by Svedka, said others like absolute were too sweet and overrated.
BTW, he chased it with slices of dill pickle or hunter sausages. Works very well, but watch out. Wish I could remember more of that night.[/quote]
Meanwhile my Russian friend hates the cold and drinks bud light lime.
I personally think Stoli is one of the better vodkas. I haven’t had Svedka. I can’t stand Absolut… it reminds me of latex.
I forgot about another very easy one: Hpnotiq and Mountain Dew. Add vodka/everclear if you want something stronger. Arguably girly and best drunk poolside.
Generally, 2oz rum to 8oz cider, but whatever actually works for you. Again, the Pusser’s rum works well. I have two ciders I’ve been trying: Hornsby’s Amber, and Woodchuck Amber. IMO, the Hornsby’s dryer cider + the rum + a small amount of the sweeter Woodchuck Amber is the best combination.

Pretty easy drinking.[/quote]
If you can get hold of mead then dropping a shot in a pint of cider is quite nice. Pretty potent, too.
