The easiest one that I can open up the bottle and pour down the sink

Vodka marketing is a scam. Absolut is the most money you should spend on vodka unless you want your friends to think you’re cool. Vodka is supposed to be tasteless.
I buy the big kirkland bottle from Costco.

I prefer potato based vodka if I'm making a vodka martini or a drink where you can taste the vodka. Otherwise for a mixed drink any will do.

First try Taaka, then anything you taste that is better than taaka is good vodka! Clean no smell is a good vodka.

You dont need to spend a ton on Vodka. You can get a damn good Vodka for under $18 a fifth.

I was a Ketel guy and then I tried JT Meleck which is a local rice vodka. It’s really smooth with a sake like finish. My wife and I are big fans. It runs around $22 a fifth and mixes well with everything.

Absolute is great for the price

Svedka or Smirnoff are my go tos- Dripping Springs and Deep Eddy are distilled in TX and are cheaper than Tito’s. Round Rock (Albertson’s House) is not bad, either. Ketel for dirty martinis.

Ever since this past summer with covid and everything I've been drinking a LOT of vodka.
It comes down to three things really for me: viscosity, sweetness/dryness, and smoothness.
Was a really big Tito's fan. I like the viscosity and smoothness of it and it's not too expensive. It is, however, definitely on the sweet side.
Living here in Michigan I was introduced to Valentine vodka a few months ago. It hits in all three: not to thick or thin, super smooth and definitely on the dry side rather than sweet.
It's expensive: $30+ for a fifth, so I never really buy it for myself, but it has definitely given me an appreciation for more expensive/small batch vodkas.
I should add, like any liquor, the more expensive vodkas like Valentine's are made to be appreciated without mixing. I shoot a lot of vodka. Some might describe me as an alcoholic.
My everyday go to is Tito's, but I also really like Russian Standard if I'm feeling frugal.

The name Vitali (Albertsons) or Caliber (Wal-Mart).
High quality despite the cheap price.

Stoli

In that order.
Stoli mixed with lime and water. Tito's mixed with OJ. Zyr, on the rocks.

I used to drink Tito’s but then they started going up in price three or four years ago.

I buy the Kirkland's brand. The 1.75 liter sells for $13 and is fine for mixing. I use it to make Bloody Mary's, Screwdrivers and also mixed with cranberry juice for a refreshing cocktail.
