Need drinking advice (Adult Advice)

Aw man! I wouldn't have felt so retarded if it had actually been my first time drinking but, alas, I had my fair share prior.

So, yes. Stay away from things like vodka and tequila until you know how you react to drinks with minimal alcohol in them. Smirnoff (I've never gotten even a buzz off of them, but, then again, I have trouble drinking actual drinks fast enough for a reaction.) are good! Space them out and you should be dandy. By the way, their Green Apple drink is so. freakin. awesome.

I was told last night that all Smirnoff products have vodka in it, is this true? I know someone posted about Smirnoff in here somewhere but there are just so many pages lol

I'm not really interested in the hard stuff, just beer

Smirnoff IS vodka.

To the best of my knowledge.

Thats what I thought, I know my sister drinks it, I'll have to ask her about the new kind. So that drink will be off limits until I find out for sure. I only want a beer & nothing stronger.

Yes Smirnoff is a vodka. Smirnoff ICE is NOT. It is a "Clear Beer". It is a competition for "Zima" another popular "clear beer". Smirnoff ICE is like a "wine cooler". Wine coolers are a type of beer if you read the label. They are just a "fruity" beer versus being created by "hops". Smirnoff Ice does come in a variety of fruity flavors called "twists" that include lemon and grape.
Now PLAIN Smirnoff is Vodka and is drank plain or in a cocktail. Just remember "Beer before liquor makes you sicker!"

Known as alcopops over here and are lethal! They taste just so much like regular drinks that people forget the alcohol content!

LOL, Yup, always has been to the best of my knowledge and when it comes to Vodka I have a LOT of knowledge - enuff to get me into AA!

Oddly enough, I HATED ALL hard liquor, sherries and brandies....too strong/sweet in flavour.

I was a wine and beer girl.

Yah, ok, a CHEAP drunk! LOL

Smirnoff Ice is 7% & dang was it good!!

I had 2 bottles fri night & couldn't walk straight at all, however my mind was clear & I remember the whole night & had a good time. After we had our drinks at my place, Shawn & I went for a nice walk in the park. Shawn was fine as he can tollerate much more. On Sat I had 3 bottles & was just fine. I didn't want the 3rd, but Shawn's throat was really sore from the cold I gave him, so I drank his. I was fine sat night, I walked normal & still had my brains lol.
