Is Ginger Ale with Vodka a drink?

Because all I have left is Smirnoff Strawberry or Cherry and Ginger Ale or Orange Juice in the fridge. I need alcohol to get me through this.

If you like it, it’s a drink. L’chaim!

Yes, it is called a Copperhead - that is vodka with ginger ale.

I drank pedialyte and vodka

Vodka with orange juice is a Screwdriver.

R4 really?

I put the Strawberry one in the Ginger Ale. Tastes weird. All you taste is strawberry and I hate that.

I bet the cherry in Orange Juice will be good.

Vodka with cranberry juice is a Cosmopolitan, or "Cosmo" to the hip New York crowd.

Omfg I need Cranberry juice.

Cosmos also have citrus.

Vodka and cranberry is a Cape Cod, not a Cosmo.

I feel your pain OP. I am stuck with fire ball whiskey, Kahlua and grand marnier right now. NO mixers at all, it's fucking gross.

I also have Moscato wine. But I’m not in a wine mood.

I need to go to the store and buy liquors, beers and juices.

Fuck food. Lol.

No. It's a main course.

Liquor stores are still open - except PA. You can get those premixed drinks in cans now. I like the Moscow Mules.

I love Apple Ale and Angry Orchard. May buy a case of that too

Ginger ale is great with Captain Morgan rum, tastes like a toasted almond ice cream bar!

Ginger ale and Alberto VO5 is called a Kitty Dukakis.

Did your stomach explode, OP? If you drink it and you're stomach doesn't explode, then YES! it is a drink.

Jim Bean or Jack Daniels? Which is better?

Ginger ale goes with so many things. My favorite is Honey Jack/Ginger ale with lime.

I just drink vodka with water, and frozen fruit if I have some in the freezer. Frozen blueberries are my favorite!

R26 What exactly is a "proper drink"? Wait, I think I know - an old fashioned, no?

Al I have is this hideous Absolute Vanilla crap I got for New Years from a neighbor. Is there anything that can make it taste good?

R30 Mix it with Coca Cola. It becomes an Absolute Vanilla Coke

R30, I feel your pain. A friend bought me a bottle of whipped cream flavored vodka

I can't drink that shit. I might be able to bake something with it

[quote] Most of you fraus seem to love sugary nasty booze.

Most 80-proof (40% alcohol) "hard" liquors, like vodka, have 64 calories per fluid ounce.

People are compounding the situation with these mixers:

Ginger ale: 115 cal. / 12 oz.

Coca-Cola: 140 cal. / 12 oz.

Ocean Spray cranberry juice cocktail: 120 cal. / 8 oz.

Orange juice: 112 cal. / 8 oz.

You can also use Diet Ginger Ale, Diet Coke, or sugar-free Cranberry Juice mixed with a shot of vodka for a zero-carb drink.

Who cares about calories at a time like this? We - and our pets - are all going to die.

A Cape Codder is vodka and cranberry juice.

I've mixed vodka with a Shasta diet chocolate soda, and it was a lot better than it sounds.

I loved Shasta Diet Chocolate soda back in the 1980s. Their sugary Tiki Punch soda was fabulous with vodka

R24. I’d take Jack Daniels over Jim Beam, but i prefer Maker’s Mark.

Vodka cranberry is. Cape Cod. Add some orange juice for a Tequila Sunrise.

Vodka, ginger ale, heavy cream, and some lemon juice to curdle it makes a Kelly Anne Conway. Garnish with some dusty raisins if you have them. It should induce nausea or vomiting, hence the name.

by Anonymousreply 47March 29, 2020 2:58 AM

Seriously, just a splash of water and a lime wedge or lemon peel and you're good.

by Anonymousreply 48March 29, 2020 3:01 AM

If you have any lime or lemon juice, add about half an ounce of it and you've got yourself a light Moscow mule.

I prefer gin. More fragrant.

I heard that those hard seltzers made good mixers so I bought a six-pack of Bon & Viv lemon-lime. I thought it would be like Sprite but with a little kick. I didn't care for it at all. For a seltzer it had a very heavy, syrupy flavor profile.

by Anonymousreply 52March 29, 2020 1:05 PM

Ugh, I meant taste...not flavor profile. I've been in isolation too long, I'm starting to forget words.

by Anonymousreply 53March 29, 2020 1:07 PM

Try White Claw R53 - I think it is similar to flavored seltzer.
