It doesn't really matter what you drink. The point is to have fun, not puke all over the bathroom. If a few Smirnoff Ice is all it takes to get you tipsy, then why the hell not. I could never drink it myself because it's too sweet and it makes me feel sick, so I usually drink beer or booze. What's worse about Smirnoff Ice is that it tastes so much like soda that it's easier for kids to start drinking.
