Absolutely use glass.
Alcohol leaches the solvents from acrylic which contaminate the drink and simply make it taste nasty.

Acrylic glasses are ok for picnic ware because of the short amount of time they're being used and the relatively low alcohol content. For other purposes, you need to use glass or stainless steel containers.

Alcohol eats away at plastic over time. This is why we use glassware when serving drinks. Most of the time...lol. I have not heard of any studies done on this, but if you take into consideration the toxic chemicals that may be released, or even the fact that you would be drinking small amounts of liquid plastic that your body cannot digest, it doesn't seem worth it in the long run.

It isn't safe. As the person above stated plastics are dissolved by alcohols. You may have noticed they taste different than alcohol stored in glass. This is because of the small amounts of plastic being corroded into the alcohol. Yummy?

No, Acrylic tends to Craze(small cracks form) from solvents and alcohol. I would recommend only using something glass or pyrex based
