I can't drink alcohol because it just tastes too nasty?!

Are you drinking it straight? Lots of people hate beers, wines and spirits by themselves, but mulled wine for instance, and mixers- like amaretto and coke/ southern comfort lemonade make things tastier.

I don't like the taste of alcohol either--when I drink I have to have my alcohol heavily mixed with something else--Coke, fruit juice, whatever is strong-flavored. And then I can still taste it, though not as much. Except for mead. I can drink mead straight up, but then, I make it myself and it's not very strong, and I put a lot of cinnamon and other spices in it while it brews.

Incidentally, alcohol IS a poison. Not normally an immediately deadly one, but it breaks down into compounds that are very toxic for your body--that's why we get hangovers when we're not careful to let it break down gradually.

I'm not Russian and I'm not young. I found out years ago that alcohol tastes awful. I haven't had a drink since then. When I'm at a party I have coke on the rocks and no one but me Knows I'm not having a mixed drink. Well that's not entirely true now. A lot of my friends know I don't drink. In a way they like that because they always have a designated driver. I have never been put down because of it but if I was that person would not be numbered among my friends.

I have never been drunk and I'm thankful for that. I don't think I'd enjoy the throwing up and headache and the not knowing what I did the night before.

I married a wonderful man who only has the occasional drink and I love that about him.
If you don't like it have enough faith in yourself to say NO. You won't be sorry.

Consider yourself lucky. Think of all the money you'll save by not buying beer or alcohol. Think of the times when you WON'T be getting sick because you drank too much either on purpose or accidentally. Think of all the times when you will be in control of yourself and won't do something you'll regret later. And you won't run the risk of killing someone because of drunk driving. And you won't become an alcoholic.

When I'm at a party I nurse a scotch and soda all evening but I wouldn't mind drinking soda with lime all evening either. Anyway you look at it, NOT drinking isn't a bad thing.

I know what you mean I would drink also and feel the same way it depends also how you drink it some people take it quick others hold it in their mouth to taste it even mre idk but I got used to the taste mayb you could try fruity drinks sometimes they can be stronger but you can't even taste the alcohol

Sisters a bartender:)

I dunno, man...alcohol tastes bad because humans haven't really evolved to consume it. The bad taste is a defense mechanism to keep people from getting drunk.

I recommend that you stick to soda, juice, tea, milk, water, etc. if you really can't stand the taste. If you want a buzz, just hold your breath and spin around a few times. If you really want to drink, mix with something really sugary sweet, like pineapple juice, cranberry juice, or mountain dew. And please, don't get carried away with it.

dont get use to it that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard anybody tell somebody . if it's nasty don't drink it & if I were you I would be happy I don't like it . you won't have any alcohol problems or have to worry about embarrassing yourself .

Some people dont like the taste of sour things (some people don't like sweet things either), I don't either and can't stand any of them. There is nothing wrong with that, it's just your personal taste.

It's not just you, I feel the same. There's nothing wrong with you, the people who drink a lot of alcohol are the ones who have a problem!

That is so good for you actually. You will have a young and fresh looking skin for heaps longer than the rest of us. Keep it up! x

Drink alcopops they taste like juice! And of course vodka and all them taste nasty you have to mix them with coke or lemonade!

??????? Alcohol is an aquired taste.

Eventually you will get use to it.
Alcohol is pretty much posion.

try a chaser, I like to drink grey goose straight but belvadere vodka I use jones soda to chase it

Well then dont drink it .

In the long run, you're probably better off not liking it.

This is a good thing. You won't ever struggle with alcoholism.
