Mixing Everclear
I'm getting a bottle of Everclear (197 proof grain alcohol) and was wondering what the best way to mix it would be. I hear jello shots are good, but that would require making a lot of jello shots at once and I won't be with al ot of people I don't suspect.
Would it be best to just mix it with fruit juice? If so, what would the ratios be for that? Any help is appreciated.

yum jello shots. you can also mix 1 cup everclear, 1 cup water (boiling) with the jello, and add a package of Gelatin (unflavored) and put in a square pan, it works with Vodka, and will set. that way you can cut up and serve in dixie cups.
as far as jungle juice it depends on your taste, I normally cut up fresh fruit, and pour a 2 Liter bottle of clear lemon lime soda in it to give it some fizz. but I also make large batches when I make it. |

Yeah, I'm thinking whop is going to be your best bet on how best to disguise the taste.
I actually just had some whop with everclear (and a variety of other liquors) a few weeks ago for a friends b-day party, it wasn't half bad. Then we all did a shot of everclear - bad idea. It smell, and tastes, almost identical to rubbing alchohol. I'll drink just about anything, but straight everclear is wicked.

Purple Jesus. It's purple and guaranteed to make you see Jesus if you're sitting down while you drink it.
3 parts Country Time lemonade 3 parts grape Kool-Aid 1 part Everclear 1 part vodka 1 part (or to taste) rum Best served in a bucket, with another bucket nearby for the recycling of the Purple Jesus.

keep this up, kiddo, and you'r gonna be an alcoholic by the time you're old enough to drink legally... Be careful, eh?
Disguising everclear (or really bad vodka) Take one watermelon Cut a small hole (plug) in the watermelon, keep the plug) Pour everclear into watermelon - shoudl take about a cup or two Put plug back into watermelon and put melon in fridge roll melon every 20 minutes or so to distribute booze after bout 6 hours - cut melon - eat melon - hold onto floor as the room spins Keeping a bucket nearby is also good. /me recalls back in the day when everclear, or whatever the trade name was then, was sold in hardware stores for use in cleaning lawnmowers and other hardware... and you want to drink that stuff?

Everclear is ever popular with the underage college crowd. In our liquor stores, you have to ask for it--they keep it hidden underneath the counter.
I wouldn't recommend jello shots. Those are bad enough with cheap vodka--they don't disguise the taste very well. Pineapple juice masks everclear VERY well, as do other tropical fruit juices. Everclear and Kool-Aid always go well together. At any rate...it will hurt your stomach. And you will throw up. Be prepared.

You can't even buy Everclear in California -- well you can, but it's only 75 percent, sames as Bacardi 151. And Bacardi's a lot better.
In my experience, only chemistry majors drank Everclear, usually as part of the fabled Purple Jesus described above, although the recipe I knew was just Everclear and Welch's. Most people who think this is a fun idea do it about once. Then they don't think that anymore. |

Gator... (Crap, I can't figure out how to say this without being the lecturing mommy.)
:eep Sigh, start again:: Gator... I've been there (100 proof) and have been 'done in' by that. Why would you want to ruin an otherwise perfect evening by nearly poisoning yourself and your friends? Toss that shit, and enjoy your friends with better choices of alcohol. Maintaining bodily fluids and staying upright are virtues at parties. Thus spake the nagging |

You've been done in by 100 proof grain alcohol...?
I think that trashing yourself on cheap liquor and kool-aid is an important part of growing up, and come Sunday I'll be sure to have an update on the joys of getting myself stupidly sick. Plus who knows if it'll be a perfectly good evening, maybe the everclear will be able to pick up what might be an otherwise boring evening?

One little tip we used to use when drinking everclear is despite what the bottle says drink 1 straight shot and throw one in a fire before you start drinking it mixed. That way you are fully aware going in what it is your dealing with. We used to mix it with tang. Don't even bother trying it with coke. Its an awful combo. When you empty the bottle put the cap back on and let it sit for like a week then take the cap back off and hold a lighter up to the hole. Its like a frikkin jet engine. Good luck.

JUNGLE JUICE!
Buy tote (or clean one you have) Pour entire bottle of everlcear in bottom of tote Pour 3 gallons of that cheap juice shit you get at the local grocery store -- fruity flavored Takes about 25 seconds to make, perfect ratio .. make sure you keep the juice cold the day before. THATS how you get wasted on cheap shit quickly..serves about 16 to mildly drunk, 12 to belligerent.

Guess I'm a little late on this thread, put this a favorite of mine (created with a good friend of mine after reading about it on Tucker Max).
Tucker Max Death Mix Everclear, Gatorade, and a splash of Red Bull. I don't know the exact portions, you basically mix enough gatorade in with the everclear to mask the taste and then add a splash of red bull. Unfortunately everytime this drink is invovled I don't remember the night's events.

I was searching the internet on "mixing Everclear" when I stumbled onto this thread. I'm not sure what this site is even about, and I know this thread pretty old, but I had to share my first "Everclear experience."
About four weeks ago, my friend and I decided we wanted to get wasted. Mind you we've never been DRUNK before. We've been tipsy, and we've been buzzed, but never drunk. So we talked to my other friend who hooked us up with a bottle of Gem Clear. We get back to my house and we're ready to have some fun. So I take the bottle and decide to taste it. I do, and nearly have a heart attack on the spot. My friend is laughing hysterically, so I tell him to take a sip. He does the same thing, so now we're both beating our chests while laughing at the other. Then, I get this bright idea. Being the experienced drinker I am, I tell him that we should take shots and it might not be as bad. He agrees and we decide to do it in the bathroom incase it comes up. We take the shots and are immediately grasping for breath for a few minutes. When we get ourselves back together and have a good laugh, we decide that we HAVE to mix it with something. Of course, the only thing I have is Sprite. We really want to get drunk, so we just go with it. It was tough, but in no time I was falling down, calling up my exgirlfriend, and leaving my current girlfriend drunken voice mails. She was not amuzed to say the least, but that's the most fun I've had with one other person that wasn't a girl. Sorry about the big bump, and I'm not sure if I'll ever find my way back here, but I felt the need to share my story. Cheers! |

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate here and say "be very careful." This stuff can fuck you up reeeeaally bad. I've only had it mixed with something else, and it was bad enough. Me and my girlfriend tried Bacardi 151 one weekend at a friend's party, took 6 shots in a period of an hour. I'm 285 lbs. We were both throwing up the entire night......
So to sum it up, whatever you mix this "Near 200 proof" alcohol with, don't let anyone have a lot of it The best way to down this nasty shit is to probably do jello shots.......

The best Everclear Mixer:
1 bottle Everclear 1 dish drain Pour bottle liberally down dish drain. Throw empty bottle into trash. Go buy tasty 90-100 proof burbon, drink, and love yourself in the morning.

Why waste your time, brain cells and taste buds on crappy alcohol. Spend a little more and live a little better (if not a little longer).

Here's a thought. Get another watermelon (since you drilled a hole in the first one lol) and cut it into little chunks...minus the rind of course. lay them out in a single layer on a cookie sheet. pour about a half inch of everclear into the cookie sheet or however much it can hold...put whole thing into the fridge for 1-2 hours. then pull them out and start popping your watermelony treats!! which will also wreck you ) oooor you could then put the watermelon bits into a blender with some other goodies and make a delicious smoothie. Then again if you feel this doesnt have enough of a kick to it... try graduating to absynthe )

Everclear, grape Kool-aid, and grape juice.
That's what the friends at home always do for large(ish) parties. They call it "Purple Drink." It still sort of tastes like burning. Once upon a time I could drink everclear straight because a) it didn't take much, b) I wouldn't have to drink any more for the rest of the night, c) that means I didn't have to pee all night, d) I never had a bad hangover from drinking it.

My first roommate in college used to drink that crap. He'd mix Everclear and Crystal Light (he'd pour the power straight into the liquor bottle). "Calorie-free drunkness" is what he called it.
I shutter just thinking about it.

I'm with Sage. Pour that shit down the drain. I'm 30 years old, and even if I decide to drink to get drunk (a rarity all along), I'd do it with something that tastes good. A 30 dollar bottle of Black Bush or Red Breast can do you and a friend in just fine. If you need enough for more than one friend, you need to find some fuckers with their own jobs to drink with,
