Alcoholic drinks that don't taste like alcohol
Does anybody know of any drinks that don't taste too strong of alcohol but still have the potency of most regular alcoholic drinks? I haven't been able to stomach the taste of alcohol recently.

Why have it if you can't stomach it then? Why not try virgin cocktails instead?

I can stomach it...just not the taste for that brief time.
Probably not the best word to use. |

Passoa liqueur with orange juice.
Safari liqueur also with o.j.. Weduwe Joustra Beerenburg with cola. These mask the taste of alcohol very well and still have a kick. Take care, it's easy to drink too much of these. |

I always think cream based drinks like Baileys or Jago pack a kick without the strong alcohol taste but have too many calories to be consumed regularly!

I thought that was the whole intension of punch and (many) cocktails. They taste like fruitjuice and are packed with alcohol.

Anything with vodka but some punches do taste like fruit but boy they do pack that boozy punch (hence their name
)

Try fruit absolut vodkas:
Absolut mandarin or raspberry, cranberry and fresh lime. Tastes like pop! Moscow mule: Vodka, Ginger ale and fresh lime. For a Gatsby change the Vodka for Southern comfort. |

Reef - tastes just like orange juice. Also helps with the hangover in the morning.

I shared a bottle of the red Jaques the other day and that was nice. Like a modern fruit cider you have it over ice.
Supermarkets sell two bottles of it for £6. |

I can drink vodka orange like it's just juice, and I'm funny about being able to taste the alcohol. I'm ALWAYS sick the day after though.

I do, surely you drink alcohol primarily because of it's effects on you rather than the taste?

Reef tastes like J20, WKD is like Panda Pops and vodka is hard to detect when mixed with coke or fruit juice.

My taste buds like to know they're having a drink they get one, obviously not swigging meths, but a bit of a kick is essential. If they can make alcoholic drinks not taste like alcohol, then why can't they make de-caff tea and coffee taste nice.

Archers and Malibu hide in most fruit juices - I love archers in fresh orange and malibu in pineapple.
Also malibu in milk is lovely, tastes like milkshake. |

Taste pretty identical to upmarket fruit drinks like Schloer except they are around 5% each |

Obviously someone who wants an alcoholic drink that doesn't taste of alcohol is interested in the effects rather than the taste, which is a bit worrying. Unless possibly they have to go to a wedding or something and feel it's inappropriate to drink a toast using water. |
