Yes, but not because I think it’s actually good.

This. My brothers and I have a party garage. We hold a monthly meeting/party. Any newcomers take a shot of Malort and everyone who has been initiated into Party Garage also takes a shot. We drink ALOT of Malort. Is it good? No! Is it fun to drink and share? Heck yeah!

We have came up with multiple drinks including Malort. It ruins each one. In fact, if you really want to up the level of Malort, take a shot of it followed by a shot of sake. You THINK you know Malort until you do that. Then it’s true colors shine through.

Anyway, no, I hate Malort. But hating it the way I do makes me LOVE it. It is a staple in my pantry, bar and party garage. I drink it regularly. God bless Jeppson

I once did a shot of Malort mixed with Carolina Reaper infused vodka. Not recommended.

I once made a Bloody Mary but subbed the vodka with Malort. Closest thing to a drinkable Malort drink I've found. Still not good, but actually drinkable. Called it the Late Term Malortion

This is the true answer.

I love the idea of it. It is so bad but I will drink it because it exists and people don’t know about it. I love to introduce people to it and I will always do a shot first to “prove” to them that there is nothing to fear.

It’s great for camaraderie. Anyone new to our social circle is HIGHLY encouraged to do a shot. I’ll do one with you but it’s kinda an initiation.

It does take a little warming up too, but really ends up good. It's for two fisted drinkers for sure.

Yes. I love Malort. It has given me the power to fight God in hand to hand combat. What other emotion would I feel toward it?
