"There are times when drinking cheap booze is an unfortunate reality. Perhaps you don't have a high budget right now, or maybe you're at a party and are stuck with what's on offer. Whatever the reason you need to make low-quality alcohol taste better, I'm here to help. I have experience with all the methods and tips I discuss here."
"As with vodka, it can feel that tequila has a reputation of being a type of booze just to get you drunk. In reality, the best tequila brands can be enjoyed on their own and deserve respect. The famous combination of salt and lime has been drunk in many bars around the globe. The salt can hide the bitterness, while the lime can compensate for the harsh finish that comes with cheap spirits."
Cheap alcohol is sometimes unavoidable due to budget or availability. Mixers are the simplest way to improve flavor, but creative techniques can rescue low-quality bottles. Tequila and mezcal share similar solutions for inexpensive versions, including using salt and fresh citrus to mask bitterness and balance harsh finishes. Salt and citrus can be added directly to the drink rather than used in a three-part process. These spirits can be improved using approaches common to vodka and other liquors. Small adjustments and experimentation often make inexpensive spirits more enjoyable and occasionally reveal pleasant surprises.
