I see a lot of questions come up about consumption, it’s affects, what people drink (usually seems to be beer or dark spirits). But how many in r/alcohol enjoy gin? Which gins do you enjoy, and how do you drink them?
Currently posting this while drunk on Gin.

alright so we all know stray kids ATE UP kingdom this week with their deadpool inspired “god’s ddu du ddu du” performance and now ryan reynolds is officially a stay! (welcome to the fandom ryan!)
as you can see in the tweet, ryan is apparently sending chan a signed bottle of his aviation gin and all i’m asking for is chan to take one shot of it on camera. that’s it. i’m pretty sure none of the members have drank alcohol on camera and this is the perfect opportunity. besides, chan has earned himself a goddam drink! stray kids is doing incredible on kingdom! deadpool is a stay! this is cause for celebration!! drink your goddam gin chan!!!
(obviously if chan doesn’t want to drink, on or off camera, i respect that wholeheartedly! but if anyone deserves to take a shot of ryan reynolds-signed gin it is my boy bang mf christopher chan!)
So, we've been drinking Gin in this country since the 1600's, that's WAY before Tea.
I would like to discuss Gin. Tonight I've been drinking Deaths Door - an American Gin. It's very nice, a nice blend of botanicals, not too strong tasting and no extra flavour but great with a decent tonic and a slice.
What's your gin of choice?
phil says its water thats in the covered bottle but the anger he has all the time during streams does seem like he drinks gin on stream and say its water but its not lol
- Tonic is cheap. Decent gin is cheap. Ice is nearly free.
- Can be improved by relatively accessible stuff - mint, lime, crushed strawberries, etc.
- The buzz from it is never as bad as from beer or wine.
- The aftertaste on the tongue is always tart, never alcoholic.
