Midori has really high alc content! I think it's like around 24% or something like that
24% = high? Gosh me boy you have not lived.

Typical Paul. So innocent, yet so guilty.

There are MUCH stronger mainstream drinks than that.

i still think 24% is reasonably high, like i know vodka is around 40%, i drank that straight out of a bottle once, and my throat burned for a while :S

Yeah vodka makes your throat burn, but midori won't...  it doesn't taste that strong (not that I condone drinking lots of it straight anyway :P)

Heh, I've had 95% Polish Vodka before. THAT is what you call burn. I began to doubt my friends and thought that it was used for polishing things rather than being from the country...

Only Russians like the taste of Vodka though to be fair, they've got frostbitten tastebuds
It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.

Does anyone like Midori?


edit: its not something that I have regularly btw, I'm actually not a big alcohol fan :(

Love it! But I can only drink very sugary alcohol anyway :P

Girls do tend to drink much sweet drinks. And guys tend to like straight spirits. Just a generalisation that fits my alcohol experiences. However, Midori is not bad. I would not opt for it though.

Goes down a lot better than other drinks -- marginally better.
