There are few well-known female anime characters who like to drink. Misato Katsuragi in Evangelion is famous but there's also Kozue Takanashi in Working!! and Cana Alberona in Fairy Tail.
But when it comes to hard liquor, few anime fans would argue that Revy from Black Lagoon would drink anyone under the table.

World-famous whisky collector and whisky critic Hideo Yamaoka teamed up with Black Lagoon creator Rei Hiroe to produce a one-of-a-kind collectors' whisky beautifully adorned with an illustration of Revy on the label. For this special bottle, Yamaoka chose Williamson, a distillery named after Bessie Williamson, the only woman to ever run a Scottish distillery in the 20th century. This alluring whisky, which they are calling "Williamson 2011," has the unmistakable peaty signature characteristic of Islay malts. This expression is matured in bourbon casks and has smoky, medicinal notes and a fruit finish.
