Vodka is one of the more favored drinks out there, especially the cheapest Vodka brands. They look classy and cool in those transparent bottles, its liquid clear like water and slightly bubbling at the ends. It is also a lot better for you to consume Vodka because it gets you a cleaner high without inducing a hangover because of the presence of Congeners, the presence of which can be judged by how deep the coloration of your drink is. For example, Whiskey and Brandy can cause serious hangovers cause they have an extremely high level of Congeners, thus the color.
Even the cheapest vodka brands are generally colorless and pure, and hence better. However, the good ones, the top-shelf, are also expensive, and not meant for ordinary folks like me, and I assume you as well. However, a boom in the Distillery industry has led to a rapid rise in Cheap Vodkas in the market. However, when consuming those you need to be extra careful because some of them might end up giving you an even worse hangover because of the impurities added to it.
