We’ve put together a list of some of the best-tasting alcohol around, so you can enjoy a fun night in or a lively night out.
Things You Should Know

Expert Q&A
Tips
- It’s always fun to enjoy a tasty cocktail or shot, but it’s just as important to pace yourself. Make sure that you’re drinking plenty of water, and try to enjoy your beverage in small sips (rather than chugging it down in one go).[25]Thanks
Warnings
- Remember to use a taxi or rideshare service so you can get home safely (or establish a designated driver before you go out with friends)—avoid getting behind the wheel.[26]Thanks
