There’s always at least one in these threads. It’s great that you like a spirit straight s your favorite drink, but that’s not a cocktail.

Vodka doesn't bring a lot to the table, but I always enjoy a mule. Lot of different ways you can change it up.

Depending on the whiskey, I sometimes add a little water, or even an ice cube.

Dirty martinis or an expresso martini can also work.
