Americans are reaching for alcohol at record lows, according to a new Gallup survey – and health concerns appear to be a major factor.

    I thought long Island ice teas were known for their high alcohol content?

      The selling point is supposed to be that it’s really strong but tastes weak, or even barely acloholic.

        So long as you are using decent quality spirits, this should be the case. The kind of liquor you get in a well drink can be pretty rough depending on the venue. When I was drinking in bars I chose a dive bar for its well liquor selection being slightly above the bottom shelf because that monarch vodka taste is woof

          Gin and tonic is the go-to for cheap well drink that doesn’t taste alcoholic. It tastes like a pine tree and even the shittiest dive bar will make a decent one.
