Well, dumb me - NOT vodka (see, I know almost nothing about this stuff). The bottles were pre-mixed drinks. One was Mojito which is rum (9.95% alcohol) and the other was White Peach Margarita which is tequila (9.95% alcohol).

I had gone to store to look and was blown away by the amount of choices. I had read about premixed drinks and thought I might be able to stomach them better and they'd have a powerful punch.

After my episode on Friday (I had created this thread under the influence), I am completely befuddled why people drink.

There is obviously a high appeal because there is so much liquor on the shelves and I thought maybe all these decades without consuming any, that maybe I was missing out on something.

Tastes terrible. Sick feeling in stomach. Dizzy. Shut down of rational thinking. Where is the 'buzz' that is so attractive for people? I did not have anything close to any pleasurable experience. Never again
