Confused about drink/drank
I have a quick question for you guys. Should I use "drunk" or "drank" for the following sentence:
Even though I've never <drunk/drank> it...
I know that the past participle form of the verb should be used after a helping verb; however, the word "never" is throwing me off here. Most of the sources I've looked at said that the format should be <helping verb> + <past participle>. From the way I see it, no other words cannot go in between those two. Am I correct with that assumption?
Thanks for any help.

Your sentence has "HAVE" so I suppose the verb has to be in past participle.

You need the past participle drunk. You are misinformed if you think no words can go between the auxiliary (helping) verb and the past participle. This is the most common place to put adverbs.
I have never drunk this kind of drink before.
I have always drunk green tea.
I have usually drunk beer with pizza.
I have sometimes drunk wine with a meal.
I have quite oft
