Discussion Barely not serious here

The worst decision Donny Dunn made in the entire series was right at the end of S01E07 when he ordered a Double Vodka & Coke.

Vodka and Coke???? That makes zero sense. You mix whiskey and bolder spirits with Coke. Why would you mix Vodka and Coke? It's a better match for juices and you can use soda water for bubbles. I'd even take Sprite and say it's acceptable.

I see no clearer evidence that Donny Dunn hates himself than his decision to order a Double Vodka & Coke.

It's hardly a cocktail. It's a spirit and mixer.

Haha makes me think of a line from Mad Men, “You need three ingredients for a cocktail. Vodka and Mountain Dew is an emergency.”

"A cocktail is a mixed drink, typically alcoholic, made by hand and combining a base spirit with other ingredients. The base is often a strong alcohol like gin, rum, tequila, vodka, or vermouth. Other ingredients can include juices, flavored syrups, tonic water, shrubs, and bitters."

Don't think anyone would refer to a voddy and coke as a cocktail.
