I don't get hard liquor. Some are drinkable mixed, but it's like you just made the mixed drink a bit worse. So far I only had one liquor, which did benefited the mixed drink. Licor 43 with milk, but I guess you could just make this without alcohol. Of course I didn't drank all types of liquor and I never tasted premium stuff. I don't even like wine. The only thing I do actually enjoy is beer. There I do like the taste. With mixed drinks, it looks to me that they just wanted a version that is drinkable, so you can get drunk. To me loosing control from alcohol is not fun. A bit light headed is fine, but for me beer does this as well.

Seltzer water. I don't understand why it's even sold at stores or offered in cafeterias. Stuff tastes like cement.
Edit: grammar
It's like drinking static though, it's lovely
It feels like the water is angry, why drink angry water???
Because, like water, I too am angry

I love seltzer water. I think the taste of cement you hate is carbon. Even if the bubbles are gone, I can still taste it.
Maybe it's like cilantro. To some people it tastes like soap.

Someone already said beer, so I'll go with wine. I've tried it several times. Both red and white. All disgusting.
I'll take straight gin or vodka over wine.

sparkling wine
For a while, these green grass puree drink stands that were becoming popular. I cannot think of the name, but surely somebody else will remember.
It tasted, predictably, like freshly mowed green grass which you would be burping up for days.
I had precisely one sample. Others were returning multiple times a day and I'm just like... No way you could have become that self-deluded but... We were there for a while!
Tap water anywhere near London.
It's like drinking chalk.
