Best types of hard liquor with little-to-no hangover?

[southern_gal]

not sure if they can be called hard liquors but my choices for tonight are daiquiri's and margarita's. Hopefully my drinking partner in crime will be here soon so that I don't have to empty this pitcher myself. I have decided that I no longer like valentines day.

If vodka, use high quality potatoe vodka. Never had issues with that choice.

don't know if this has been addressed in this thread yet--,
if it has forgive me.
The cheaper the booze the worse the head.

Also, DO NOT USE A MIXER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you absolutely have to use a mixer use one with the least amount of sugar.
The more sugar content the worse the hangover and the worse the dehydration.

As to which of all the booze, gives the smallest or least effects of hangover
depends on what you practise with...

I admitted a patient last night with "abdominal pain and a possible GI bleed."

When I asked him what had happened, he said he drank "a bottle and a half of Hennessy and woke up burning."

"hahahaha.. dude.. how big were the bottles?"

I figure, if you didn't have to go to the emergency room, your hangover wasn't that bad.

Bloody Mary, Mojito and CSC leave me feeling fresh as a daisy. No hangover, no feeling tired, nothing. And I drink them by the jug.

Generally, if I steer clear of bubbles, brown liqour, tequila and any cocktail with more than one alcohol as a base, I'm good to go.

I have a feeling that this evenings vodka is going to have me regretting it come the morning alarm going off In Like four hours.

Vodka has the fewest carcinogens of any distilled beverage so, theoretically, should cause you the fewest problems. That said, I drink tequila.

Scotch!

I've never had a hangover drinking scotch. I also don't find that I'll get wildly drunk off it either. A lot of it depends on how you drink as well. A few glasses of scotch, just sipped slowly shouldn't give you any problems. Then again, neither will 7-8 if you just take you time and know how to pace yourself.

I agree! I like the head and, perhaps because I mix it with water, don't get a hangover.

I prefer the ones from Islay... Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardbeg... Mmmm..... smokey and peaty baby!
