You should try making jello shots with the Everclear. It’s strong enough to denature proteins… kinda scary that I still have a bottle of that in my drawer.
Everclear is just absolutely devastating. I dropped a match into an empty bottle, which resulted in a plume of flame shooting about half a foot out and the bottle containing a massive fireball. It’s one of those moments that you think “I just drank that??”
Grey Goose, if you’ve got a good budget. Otherwise, Ketel is good quality (I’m a vodka person…). Bacardi Gold is decent rum too. if you’re going for beer, then definitely Stella.
MrPsychic has the right idea. For a 21st birthday, don’t worry too much about brands. There are very few people that could pass the Pepsi challenge between Stoli’s and Grey Goose, for instance. Just avoid the very cheap stuff, that’ll give you a hangover before your even drunk.
Ouzo (Greek) or brennevin (Icelandic) are fun changes of pace if they’re available.
For a 21st birthday, and you’ve had no drinking experience, don’t overdo it. I mean, you’ll be tempted to, but three reasons why you shouldn’t. One, you’ll feel like hell the next day. Two, it’s a waste of money to drink after you can’t see anymore. Three, you’ll have to buy more.
as for beer, you need to get Shiner if you like dark, Blue Moon if you like pale ale. my guy friends swear by Guiness. as for liquor, it really doenst matter what brand of vodka you drink, personally i drink it like water. just avoid the really cheap stuff, like McCormicks. I also find you can drink way more and avoid getting sick if you stick to one brand all night. If you switch it up, then you have a problem. Tequila gives everyone the worst hangover/wasted stories, everclear will fuck you up nicely, but its fast. like one minute your sober, thinking it doesnt work, so you drink more…. the next, youre GONE.
from experience, dont get wasted on your 21st. its more fun to get fun-drunk, where youre still happy, or you can remember/enjoy that random hookup. heh.
Well, price is definitely a factor in buying alcohol, but consider the hangover. I usually buy good quality stuff (though rarely do i get my hands on Grey Goose), and although it’s not cheap, guess what? no hangover the next day. That’s a hell of a lot more than I can say for Georgi. I mean, if you’re truly going for cheap and quantity, just make a shitload of jungle juice. Get a few 1.5L bottles of Georgi and 151, mix it with kool-aid and water, and you’ve got yourself something that doesn’t taste is, but can fuck you up.
the version of “jungle juice” that I know is called “sweet tarts”, get a 2 liter of orange soda, pour out 1/4, put in 2 red kool aids, and 1 purple. Shake up then fill 2 liter with the strongest alcohol you got. Shake it up, then chill it, or pour over ice. cant taste any alcohol and before you know it your spewing your guts in the bathroom/backyard/over a balcony.
A lot of people say smrinoff sucks, but the watermelon twist vodka by them is good.
After shock is the shit, would NEVER get drunk just off of it though, 1-2 shot MAX in a night. Its nice to get the party started, and chicks love it
The style of jungle juice we used to make back in the day consisted of the following:
a garbage can. (metal, cause plastic will melt if you use it for this receipe)
2 gallons of everclear
5 gallons of sterno
3 gallons of gasoline
1 gallon of aftershock
2 gallons of cat piss (to cut the taste of the aftershock)
Mix them all together with 5 cans of Jose’s Colon Blow Chili sauce.
Drink up.
Wake up in a pile of your own waste the following morning in Cabo with no memory of who you are or why you are using a pinata as underwear and oh god there is candy wedged in my asscrack….
Have any of you heard of Vampyre vodka? My friend threw up after drinking that too much at one point, and it looked like he threw up blood all over the toilet. How’s that for fun? =P
I have tried Aftershock (the red one), and I really enjoy it. But I can only do one or two shots of it because it’s wayyy too sweet. One of my friends had the idea of mixing it with apple cider one day…:(
I believe DisAronno (sp?) is on the list too.
I’m also interested in trying bizarre things, too.
Especially Absinthe. Is that stuff legal in Canada?
Indeed it is, just be on the lookout for a lot of… cheap imitations of it. Bizarre things? Then I’d definitely recommend Vampyre, or Pink (It’s the vodka with caffeine – never tried it myself, but heard that it even tastes ok). Or… a T-1 Hooker (basically, you inhale a pinch of salt, and then take a shot of tequila).
mmm absinth, banned here in ireland but still attainable in the north, although legally you are only supposed to have one shot of it in a 24 hour period up there. still though, nice if you can get it. got loads of the 80% stuff from spain before, quite cheap too.
messes with your head after just a few shots though
Absolut = suck. Where’s the Jack?
Maybe a fun liquor night for a lady or small child, but that’s just a good start for real drinking men.
You’re kidding about the Everclear right? Damn, that stuff’s potent enough to burn your face off
You should try making jello shots with the Everclear. It’s strong enough to denature proteins… kinda scary that I still have a bottle of that in my drawer.
omg i cant imagine what jelly shots with everclear would be like >____>
www.myscienceproject.org/j-shot-2.html
Found a site that already tried jello shots with everclear. Looks like it actually does denature the jelly.
Everclear is just absolutely devastating. I dropped a match into an empty bottle, which resulted in a plume of flame shooting about half a foot out and the bottle containing a massive fireball. It’s one of those moments that you think “I just drank that??”
Oh Jose I want you SOOOO much! Oh I LOVE YOU!
jose tastes like dirt….
What’s that at the far left? My monitor is weird and I can’t make it out
Hpnotiq. A fun drink, but you look so bad if you actually get drunk off it. If you’re a guy, that is.
I have that same carpet, but a much better liquor selection. Everclear is pretty awesome, but the rest of that stuff is total sorority girl material.
Oh God, I know what Hpnotiq is. Basically some fruit cognac that’s a sky blue colour. The fruit part makes me skip it in the first place.
What sort of liquor would you recommend, guys? My 21st is coming up on the 8th.
Grey Goose, if you’ve got a good budget. Otherwise, Ketel is good quality (I’m a vodka person…). Bacardi Gold is decent rum too. if you’re going for beer, then definitely Stella.
And lucky you, I gotta wait another.. 6 or so months till my 21st =(
I prefer blue label Smirnoff, simply because it’s cheap and 100 proof.

orb, get Bacardi 151 Rum
For a 21st birthday, and you’ve had no drinking experience, don’t overdo it. I mean, you’ll be tempted to, but three reasons why you shouldn’t. One, you’ll feel like hell the next day. Two, it’s a waste of money to drink after you can’t see anymore. Three, you’ll have to buy more.
If its your first time, get corona
It’s not my first time drinking, but I do tend to get drunk pretty quickly because I’m small. I just haven’t had much variety. Also, no to the Corona.
I can get through a little less than half a bottle of 151 before I’m done for. Doesn’t mean I’ll stop.
Grey Goose has been recommended to me before. That’s on the top of the list.
I’m not worried about overdoing it, because I’m also getting taken to a strip club. 😀
have you ever had aftershock?

knogoodidleft on October 26th, 2007 6:18 am have you ever had aftershock?
good call. semi-pricey but fun stuff, I think after one encounter with this stuff it’s been on my list since.
“No one should make Jell-O shots with straight Everclear because (1) they will taste vile and (b) someone could get killed.”
have you ever had aftershock?
What a lovely drink. except for the red one, thats just way too sweet. but the black one and the blue one are lovely. never had the green variety.
The fun thing is, i fucking hate alcohol. And I hate vodka with a passion. Now, what do you think, what I drink every weekend?
I love it when people get pretentious about what alcohol they spend too much money on to destroy their brain, liver and kidneys. If you are drinking to get drunk, go cheap. If you are enjoying a fine spirit to compliment a meal, a cigar, a canapé, or on its’ own, do some research and go expensive. If you are just trying to impress people by bragging about “my well stocked bar”, then you can go play a nice long game of hide and go faaack yourself, you wannabe yuppie asshat. How insecure can you get?
And for the record, Everclear is Satan’s tears in bottled form. Drink at your own risk.
I can’t believe people drink aftershock. Listerine is cheaper and about the same quality.
That’s the truth. Sugary, over flavored college kid swill guaranteed to give you a 5 alarm hangover AND diabetes.

sorry, recipe. Must be still drunk from the jungle juice….hey, i found a jolly rancher!
garbledxmission that was fucking funny.
yeah, but a bit expensive, like you can almost buy a full size keg for that much…hell a garbage can is 40 bucks.
You gotta eat a frozen pop sickle every 20 mins or so so when you spew you spew a rainbow.
Have any of you heard of Vampyre vodka? My friend threw up after drinking that too much at one point, and it looked like he threw up blood all over the toilet. How’s that for fun? =P

YES! it is!1!1!!!
radiator green 🙂 never had it but heard some nice stories about it, check into it.
If your into a real trip check out Salvia divinorum, get at least 30x and a water pipe.
Indeed it is, just be on the lookout for a lot of… cheap imitations of it. Bizarre things? Then I’d definitely recommend Vampyre, or Pink (It’s the vodka with caffeine – never tried it myself, but heard that it even tastes ok).

CUERVO is Spanish for CRAP.
There are many much finer tequilas out there. I’ll post a photo just for you.
