    I like Vodka( top shelf ) and water with a wedge of lemon or lime. Taking in the water all day helps keep you hydrated as well.

    Just a little tip for those that don't like plain Vodka. Try dropping a couple lifesavers (depending on your favorite flavor) into a bottle of plain Vodka and let dissolve. Will give it a slight fruity flavor and take the "bite" out of the plain vodka.

    Nope, they have soda water at every bar I've ever asked for it, and that's been just about all of them. I get too full drinking sugar drinks all day, so my go-to is Bacardi Anejo + coconut rum and soda water.

    If you want it to be at least a little sweet, I also brought a couple of these Mio "water enhancers" with me - just some flavor and a crazy amount of artificial sweetener. I picked them up at the grocery store:
    MiO Liquid Water Enhancer — It's a remote control of fruit flavor

    Crown & Coke? Great mixed drink, only bested by Crown Black & Sprite, IMO.

    But, what about a Vodka and something, simple mix?

    The easiest to drink version would really be a flavored vodka and water, but that's a little "flat" for drinking for some folks, including me. Stacia can handle it for a day, but then needs to switch. Try Absolut Mandarin and Water, or the same with sprite, or a normal juice, tonic, or sweet-sour mix.

    Few bubbles, and decrease the sugar might help, possibly.
