How do I down my liquor better as someone who cant handle the taste?

I want to enjoy being drunk and have fun with my friends at parties and functions but what’s holding me back is my aversion to alcohol because of the taste. I’ve tried taking shots before (with chaser) but as soon as it goes down its like my gag reflex activates and I throw it back up before or sometimes even with the chaser. I’ve tried sipping on mixed drinks but I can still taste the alcohol in it and it becomes very difficult for me to finish the drink. Both cases what ends up happening is that I dont consume enough to get drunk and just suffer my usual symptoms of nausea, heavy breathing, and flushing red (im asian), although the one time I did get drunk it all disappeared instantly. I want to resolve this issue where I cant drink, if not I might just accept the sad fact that I’m intolerant.
