Gin - tastes like pine needles
Tequila - tastes good
Rum - tastes warm
Vermouth - tastes like medicine
Southern Comfort - is very sweet

How strong is:

Vodka usally about 80 proof which is 40% alcohol
Gin is about the same as vodka usually ~80 proof
Tequila - has a greater range of proofs - but good Tequila should laso be about 80 proof
Schnapps - is stronger - about 100 proof
Vermouth - is low like 32 proof
Brandy - is about 25% alcohol (more than wine - less than hard liquor)
Everclear - is ridiculous - like almost 100% alcohol.
Southern Comfort - 76% I had to googe that one!
Fruit Liqueurs - depends.

What is:

Galliano is a sweet Itaina liquer made from herbs, flowers and anise
Acerola - is um a nutrient... ??
Absolut - Vodka
Blue Curacao - is maily used to make drinks blue. I think it s Hawaiian
Razzmatazz - raspberry liquor
Cointreau - orange liquor, a little bitter
Passoa - passion fruit liqour
Campari - is an aperatif made from herbs. You drink it before dinner and it whets your appetite.
Triple Sec - orange liqour (sweet) used in margaritas.
Amaretto - almond liquor.
Maui - not a clue

I reccomend a good maragrita, rum and orange juice with fresh lime and lots of ice, or lemonade with a shot of good bourbon.

My standard cocktail is ketel one (vodka) and cranberrry. :D
