What's your favourite mixer with spirits?

I keep an emergency fry up in the freezer in case of hangover these days.

I don't drink much, though (which probably makes it more likely I'll need that fry up when/if I do).

Wouldn't it be easier to neck a couple of anadin extra, drink a large glass of cold water, and go back to bed for a couple of hours?

I get horrible hangovers. It usually takes a big mac meal to dissipate them - but can only be faced early evening.

You only get the hangover when the blood alcohol levels drop.

Ahh...

As in whisky, vodka, gin and so on

Yep. The best mixer with whisky is vodka and gin.

Ahh...

Which is worse when you wake up still p*ssed and then the hangover kicks in mid afternoon.

At home it's usually Margaritas, Bloody Marys or Pink Gins.

Here's one post I did earlier...

That sounds about as revolting as those "breakfast in one tin" affairs.

My wife used to drink whisky and coke but used to suffer from really bad hangovers. Her doctor suggested drinking vodka as it is a more pure form of alcohol - he said that the clearer the liquid the better, in terms of hangovers.

When I drink vodka, I like it with Dr Pepper but you find pubs dont sell that.

On a trip to Krakow a couple of years ago we went to a tiny bar where the barman insisted that we sample many of his vodkas. My wife tends to drink Smirnoff which he was not impressed with. To me they all tasted different, but were all still like some form of petrol. They keep it in the freezer which does make the drink nicer - on the grounds that you can't taste it!

I love the idea of "my doctor told me to drink vodka"!

He didn't - he said if you are going to drink spirits then vodka would be the best in terms of hangovers
