Good value hangover friendly cocktails. Your thoughts...

[NTG]

As far as prices go, anyone who is worried about the cost of their fave cocktail in the club, you're doing it wrong.

Hand stamp, penny slots, bribe cocktail waitress to bring four drinks to you at once with a $10. Chug drinks. Problem solved.

Kids these days...

Genius.

I just make sure that I drink a big glass of water with some alka seltzer and an Emergen-C in it before bed and that fixes things. 60% of the time it works, every time.

Thats sounds like a winner, I'm going to try that.

Yeah, the Vodka Tonic looks decent. Tonic Water has about 30g sugar per 12 oz. A Vodka Tonic has 2 oz vodka (about 1 1/2 shots) and 2 oz tonic water (5g sugar). Apply the midnight rule (time to start drinking), and make a 5 drink cap: 10oz vodka / 25g sugar. Then apply MissV's Hangover Remedy. Drinking tons of water at the pool beforehand of course, and eat a 10 PM buffett before going out.

I dunno how AOD friendly this plan is. During Halloween we drank during the day, pre partied in the evening, got pre drunk at AOD HQ, and then went to the clubs and slammed back bottle after bottle. I think I only got one dinner in the five nights I was there. There were snacks at the HQ but pretty much after 17:00 or so food was forgotten.

Yeah, my first 7 day trip to Vegas went like that. Pretty much drank from 2 PM - 6 AM everyday, and barely got in a meal a day. Was a lot of fun, but don't remember much of it.

This is why I stick to vodka sodas!

I'm a huge fan of Rum & Coke so i anticipate you could try rum and diet? never tried it but you could go for it. Or just suck it up, drink everything in your path and DON'T get a hangover. =)

Couple options

1. Drink whatever alcoholic drinks you want and just rehydrate heavily with water and/or gatorade before bed

2. Sleep minimally (or not at all) so you'll still be drunk in the morning and just keep drinking.

not a cocktail per se but BLT Burger in the Mirage has chocolate Shakes with Bacardi 151 and/or Makers Mark in 'em.

Not only delicious but gets the day going right into gear quick and ditches the headache.

Are you an engineer? Mathematician? In any case, you're over analyzing.

If you want the best bang for your buck with the least hang over, you can drink vodka w/ water and lime juice. Helps rehydrate, and the lime juice gives it a bit of flavor.

I've actually grown really accustomed to these, and I'll order them at bars even if I'm not drinking heavily. Either this, or bourbon straight. The caffeine in soda (even if it's diet) isn't the best if you drink a ton in a night. Water in large quantities, however, is great!
