Nah. Popov Vodka by the liter. Alcoholics think you can’t smell it on them, but they do tend to reek as it metabolizes off them.

Vodka was my mother's hard liquor of choice, I think for just that reason.

Ditto for my late social worker husband, who discovered it after his small town doctor decided to take him off the Valium which stopped his hand tremor so he could hold a coffee cup, write, and tie his shoe; the vodka fixed him up until I found him a great neurologist in Memphis (shoutout to Dr. Tulio Bertorini).
