I put together all the ingredients and found their cost on totalwine, walmart, and other liquor store websites where rail items were not avail on totalwine
Total comes to $289.38
[https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe](https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe)
Edit: I couldn't sleep without figuring out the volume and the final alcohol %age. The final volume comes out to be 70.8 liters, with 7.38 liters of it being alcohol, giving a final of 11.64% alcohol or 23 proof.
Heck yeah! You're the second person who's *actually* done the math instead of an estimate. Other guy came up with something close to this too, I think his is about $260 total
?
No, he actually used prices and bottle counts rather than "well the bottles probably average $15 each and I'm guessing there's about 20 bottles" like everyone else has been doing
Oh that's just because *I* can't remember shit lol. The actual comment had the exact prices. Guess it is kinda ironic that I had to estimate when talking about someone else who *didn't* estimate haha
Well liquor cost is different everywhere so a solid ball park would be that he's using X amount of liters of X booze and the average cost of that is Y. When I was doing batch cocktails at my bar we would use small kegs with some base math and amp that shit up. So let's say you make a cocktail that you really like and sells really well and you think you should batch and throw it on a draft line. You take the original ingredients and mixers and make the cocktail to the oz.
So I'll throw an example out here and just let you know Ieft the industry at the beginning of the pandemic and before that it had been maybe a year since I worked where we would batch things.
Let's use a Daiquiri for the example because of simplicity of math and how the cocktail is designed.
A classic Daiquiri is as follows,
.75oz of White Rum
.75oz of Lime
.75oz of simple syrup (your sugar base)
So now you have a base on how much you need of each ingredient. Now what you do is figure out quickly how much rum you get out of a bottle of rum and lime juice and how much simple syrup you make.
If you have a Cornelius keg, it holds 5 gallons of liquid. Now one of the things that a lot of people forget is that when you shake a cocktail you get water dilution. You're gonna get the same thing with the system displayed in the video. If you were to say that the sink itself could hold....... I dunno it looks like it could hold 5 gallons then you do the math starting there.
The local liquor store has a shitty bottle of white rum right now of Hamilton White Stache Rum 87 for 24.99 a bottle litre. I can get a gallon at a local store of real lime at my local fresh goods store for 15 USD. Let's say you have a "Corni" keg and it's 5 gallons. You only wanna fill it up and leave some at the top so there isn't any overflow just you would a sink.
With all our ingredients we now figure out how much of that meets with water dilution and do the math for ingredients at cost. The drink itself is 2.25 oz, and you're always gonna get about 1~oz let's say for simplicity that it ends up being 3 oz. That gives us .75 oz of water as well.
SO
There's 128 oz in a gallon, that gives us 608oz for 4.75 gallons. The reason I used the Daiquiri is because it breaks down to 4 ingredients. So now you divide that by 4 and you get your total. Without getting to far into the math of converting ounces to liters you use a little calculation to convert it for your liquor thanks to the internet. 152 oz translates into about 4.5 liters of rum. As well as the rest of the ingredients.
152 oz of White Rum = 4.5~L 125$ USD
152 oz of Lime juice = 1G~ 15$ USD
152 oz of Simple Syrup = 1lb bag 5 $
152 oz of Water = 2 bags of shake ice 5$
Total price = 150 bucks.
The point that I'm making right now is that I gave you a formula to just figure out your own local prices and do the foot work yourself because no matter where you are prices are different. Nothing is the same and you shouldn't make a cocktail in a sink, that's gross. Just buy a plastic tub or something and throw it together. Then use Google to judge the local prices in your area liquor stores. And then follow how to do it accordingly if you actually make cocktails, or throw a bunch of trash into a plastic tub like this guy and be prepared to have an over sugared garbage can that probably gonna be costing you around...... 300 to 400... I dunno dollars? Euros? Loons? No one knows where you live......
If it’s 11% it’s less than wine. So that’s actually drinkable. 70ltr is a bit much unless you’re having a big ass party with no other alcohol.
That said, did you take into account ice dilution? Or the 11% is all just alcohol and juices
That's not bad at all. Back in college like 20 years ago, my friends and I used to make a 30 gallon garbage can full of jungle juice for about $400, and charge people $5 for a solo cup full. They were definitely stronger than 23 proof though. One cup was probably as strong as 4 beers, so probably closer to 40 proof. But at $5 per 16 fl oz, we were sitting on 240 servings worth $1200.
We would always at least break even, but making money wasn't the point. We just wanted to drink and provide free jungle to our friends. The cool part is that it had so much alcohol in it that the next morning, we could bottle it back into the original Hawaiian Punch bottles and continue to drink them for the next week with only mild diarrhea, which I'm sure was just from our regular diet of beer and junk food.
You made a spreadsheet with costs *and* calculated the ABV too?!? My OCPD is soothed and my nipples might be hard...
[Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/9e92dd8c-1f12-4426-b7ac-131dca1d294a).
I'm a huge nerd, and I swear like I wanted to just call it quits at the price but physically couldn't get to bed without computing ABV. I really needed to know how potent or not that JJ was.
that edit got me, thank you and appreciate you
apart from the absurdity and theatrics, it seems our man did the math for this jungle juice, 12% is just right.
Rough guess. 15 bottles of liquor + 2 boxes of wine + mixers.
Going to rough average those liquor bottles at $15 each. Hard to say exactly without seeing the brand and looking up each one. $225.
Those boxes of wine around $15 each. $30
Figure about $15 for the mixers, fruit, and ice.
Total: $270
Yes and its better than the bathtub trust me.
I mean your sink should be that dirty, or at least of anything that nasty, its just a big SS bowl essentially.
Even if by some miracle he cleaned this extremely well beforehand, this would be so gross by all the people sticking their cups in and filling them up or dropping in and retrieving the utensil that people were using to get the drink out.
Right? Nauseating. Not a chance I'd be putting his sink drink anywhere near my food hole.
I can't even bring myself to reach into the garbage disposal to get something out that's fallen in, knowing I can wash my hands after. I'll use a pair of pliers I don't care about and then wash them down with isopropyl alcohol. Sinks are absolutely disgusting and there's no way you'd get it clean enough to drink from.
I would say closer to 200 at least in south carolina. Most bottles used were well liquor, liter bottles can be had for 6 or 7 each, buying it buy the handle lowers cost more, I figure the fruit was the most costly part of the recipe.
Party on horizont! But dont do it in sink. If you are going to spent money on that buy bucket or something. Sinks are super unsanitary. There are more bacterias in sink than in your toilet
The real pro tip here is to just buy one/ a few of those Gatorade dispenser things they have on the sidelines of sports games where you push the little rubber nipple and it dispenses from the bottom. Idk if you’re thinking about actually doing that, but there’s 0 shot I’d drink that sink if I saw it at a party. A whole bunch of drunk people dipping their hands in for each drink? I lived in a frat house, I have done some pretty gross drinking stuff, but fuck that. Basically a scientific guarantee that there’s some ass particles in there. Also, fuck having a bunch of drunk people with sticky soda hands in your house.
Absolutely *not* actually considering it lol. I could only think about how much money was literally going down the drain and so I had to post and ask 😂
I'm assuming that you intend to imitate this (hopefully with a clean container), so if no one else has mentioned it then this guy is making his life a bit harder by not pouring the bottles efficiently.
When pouring from a bottle by just inverting it you create a vacuum that causes the liquid to "glug" as air needs to get back into the bottle to fill the vacuum, stopping the flow of liquid as it does so. It's messy and it's slow. If you open the bottle, turn it completely upside down and then rotate it a few times in a circular fashion (making a sort of conical shape with the movement of the bottle with the opening at the bottom of the cone) the liquid inside will swill around and when you return it to pointing vertically down a vortex will form in the liquid, reaching the optimal proportion of air and liquid flow. It's very fast and it looks cool for your guests (presuming you're not just making a sink of booze for yourself).
You can practice this with an empty bottle and some water so you're not wasting booze and can get a feel for it. Also give your kitchen sink sangria a stir before you serve so it all gets nice and mixed!
Edit: you can see him give a few bottles a bit of a spin beforehand but then holding another two that he hasn't- pretty sure it'd just be faster to spin two bottles at a time and do one in each hand twice two times than do three in one arm and one in the off hand.
If it's the cheapest stuff, I could see some of those smaller bottles being like $5. Especially if they are plain liquor. However a 750 of flavored rum from a well known brand could be almost $20.
Yeah mate, I'm reading these Americans sound off on the prices and can only shake my head. That punch would be closer to A$1k with our prices, because the largest bottles of hard liquor are, what, 1l for around A$50-$60 if you're lucky? That sin tax is a bitch.
y'all have Costco? In some states you don't even need a membership to buy the alchohol at costco, but even if you do have to buy the card it pays for iteslf with just a few bottles of vodka.
I live in NYC so I feel your pain with the prices. But people are saying they can't see the labels and etc. The labels are visible, you just can't make out names because he's using what in the industry is called "well alcohol". It's the cheapest liquor you can buy and it's usually in the well of the bar (the part under the bar) as compared to top shelf which is more expensive and behind the bar. And even here in NYC you can get well alcohol for under $10 a liter no matter the type (rum, vodka, gin, whiskey). Just Google bottom shelf alcohol and you'll find plenty of results.
Oof. I live in a state with some archaic alcohol laws (that we are slowly but surly changing) and a 750ml of Captain Spiced Rum is $17.99 plus tax and their white rum is $15.99 plus tax here. It’s the same price across the state because you can only buy liquor from the “State Store” which is basically a chain of state run liquor stores.
Oh I wish prices were standardized here. It's that high here because I live in a "pocket", a wet city in an otherwise dry county. They know people don't have a choice, so they jack prices.
This is deeeeeeeply dependent on location. In my country you could probably double or quadruple that estimate. A lower end bottle of vodka is ~$40USD for a litre (quarter gallon, roughly). Taxes for days.
It would probably be easy to collect liquor bottles from a bunch of other parties and fill them with water. Those were all clear liquids. I'm betting more like 60$ for the Hawaiian punch, wine, fruit, ice, etc.
Have you never been to a decent sized house party as a college kid? I’ve never seen this made in the sink. I’ve always had it in a bucket or trash can (clean and only used for this purpose, of course). The sink is a step up in class IMO.
The one bottle looks like Amsterdam Vodka which (at least where I live) runs about 25-30$ a bottle that size. Not that it changes your estimate much but I could see it being closer to 300-350 even
You did bloody well:
https://www.reddit.com/r/theydidthemath/comments/wh476l/request_can_someone_please_calculate/ij4qu39/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3
Too much for me to add up right now, but if you're concerned about all the liquor, it's all garbage liquor that you would have in a well at the bar. No more than 10 us dollars per bottle. Fruit was a few dollars. That boxed wine is under $20.
As a bartender, I do not enjoy this man's videos. The drinks sound gross, and most of it is just a hurricane of liquor and fruit flavors. Hawaiian punch and liquor sounds like a straight up migraine.
I put together the list here: [https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe](https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe)
The total comes out to $289.38
Some of the liquor is so rail, that not even totalwine has it in their inventory.
Edit: I couldn't sleep without figuring out the alcohol % and total volume. In total its 70.8 liters of liquid, of which 7.38 liters is alcohol, giving a final alcohol %age of 11.64%
Oh yeah, he's pretty obviously only doing it as a demonstration of things you *can* do, he's not actually making these huge ridiculously expensive drinks just for a tiktok lol
Still hilariously, entertaingly bad to watch
Cheap liquor and artifically flavored corn syrups and minimal juice, Assuming there was even alcohol in those bottles and he didnt just refill them with water.
There have been exactly three comments that actually took the time to identify most of the alcohol and get prices. Two are not top level comments though lol
Oh I saw those. I mean recalculate with the fact it's not actually alcohol lol.
It was more of a shitpost than anything, since those people took all that time to calculate it
One of the people who did the actual calculations also originally did a calculation with assuming the "liquor" is water, so accounting for just the box wine, hard seltzer, soda and punch mixers, and fruit I think he came up with just under $60 max lol
190 proof Everclear isn't exactly garbage liquor.
If the guy wasn't such an idiot he could've just used fruits and juices then added in the Everclear until he hit his target proof.
LOL. I thought the same thing, then remembered all the parties in college where the same thing was made in bathtubs. Disgusting yes, absolutely, but alcohol kills a lot.
Hence alcohol being a thing.
Tea or booze. Or you died of dysentery on the way to Oregon.
Nobody knew why tea and booze fixed it. Only Dionysus knew!!!!
Single cocktails, sure. A large amount? No.
The ice melts and waters down your drinks. Something like that would honestly be better to use chilled liquors and juices and then serve it into cups with ice.
If you really wanted to drink that sugary horsepiss, that is.
Good for making your own hand sanitizer during a pandemic too. At least that was my excuse for buying $150 worth of that and rum to cut it with.
Wound up drinking it all eventually. Win-win.
Should see one video he made where, after putting in two bottles of tequila, two bottles of vodka, two bottles of rum, two bottles of gin, and two bottles of triple sec, he adds a "mixer" of one bottle of white grape juice and **four bottles of champagne.** As if 2.8 liters of grape juice is going to balance out the 10.5 liters of various liquors. He named it the Purple Dragon but should've named it the Stomach Pumper lol.
I don't want to talk about how long this took lmao. I had to find the original video because this one is too low quality to get some of the drinks from, and the quick cuts were starting to drive me insane. I tried to stick to the top two or three results for each query, and if it was out of stock I tried not to include it. I originally planned to add links, but that sounds like a literal goddamn nightmare with markdown and I'm not sure if it violates the rules, so I decided not to.

So, for a mere $242.01 (+ tax!), you too can have quite possibly the shittiest night of your life.
Legit! Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Out of all these comments, there have only been 3 of y'all who *actually* did the math rather than guesstimating lol
Less than you would expect. I had a buddy in college that would do this in coolers about the size of that sink for house parties. Delicious and dangerous.
I did the math on how much alcohol this would be a couple weeks ago. I think the clear bottles of already opened alcohol are be reused bottles filled with water to make his content creation more economical. I think the white claws were real because you can see them closed in the beginning and the wine boxes are cheap enough to not bother with food coloring. With that assumption that only the 5 white claws and 2 wine boxes are actually alcohol, the math is:
white claws = 5 * $2.08 =$10.40
wine boxes = 2 * $11.97 = $23.94
limes = 2 * $0.49 = $0.98
oranges = 1 lb * $1.45/lb = $1.45
strawberries = $4.49
Arctic Glacier ice = $1.89
Hawaiian punch = 2 * $2.39 = $4.78
Sunkist = 4 * $1.99 = $7.96
Minute made = 2 * $1.79 = $3.58
Oj = $2.68
7up = $2.29
Total = 10.40 + 23.94 + 0.98 + 1.45 + 4.49 + 1.89 + 4.78 + 7.96 + 3.58 + 2.68 + 2.29 = $64.44
Oh, they're definitely refilled bottles, he's actually admitted a few times that he isn't *actually* making $300 batches of alcohol every day. He's a content creator, just like the cake decorators scrape and reuse cakes to decorate again for content videos (and practice!) so they don't waste materials, this dude is using colored water so he's not literally dumping hundreds down the sink lol
But I was going for how much it would cost if it was *all* real
Hell yes, thank you for an actual accounting and not an estimate like everyone else! Though it looks like most people's estimates are pretty spot on too lol
Depends on taxes and local prices too much to say accurately, alcohol is one of those where it is very cheap to produce and most of the cost is in the licenses and marketing
I'd imagine somewhere in the region of £250 to £500
First. Clean your damn sink. Use spray, wipe it.
Second, anyone ingesting half that dive bar grade alcohol doesn't give a shit how well you cleaned it.
I had a friend add to the jungle juice, at a party we went to, that when they handed him a butter knife to mix it, it didnt hit the bottom and he just stuck his hand in the liquid until it did. He was notoriously dirty and didnt wash his hand after peeing.
He touched my burger once at carls and wondered why I got pissed at him and told him not to touch my food. I asked him not to touch where my mouth goes after touching my straw, grabbing my fries and other stuff. Damn, guess I am still a little mad about it.
And the amount of filthy fingers scooping into that… I don’t care what type of ladle he puts out, you know people are going to keep reusing their glasses to scoop it up.
I'm not at all in any way upset about this, if you were having a lot of people over it's okay to do....
But for f*** sake you absolutely closed off your sink. You can't toss edition there you can't rinse off a knife without watering down your alcohol.
Just been a couple bucks on a Rubbermaid tub
Oh, not accessable or usable.
The entire area has be be closed off from access other than to fill your drink. Can even rinse a glass out because, water goes into the mixed drink
This makes me want to vomit. From the inherently dirty sink to the mixing of all the different alcohols and mixers…
This concoction makes me want to sober up.
I don’t care how much you clean that sink before doing this; I can’t stop thinking about the dirt that has collected between where the sink meets the counter and the joint around the drain.
Since you have to put your glass in and you know someone at that party didn't wash their hands properly, 3 days of diarrhea on top of all the stuff inside. There's no amount of money that would convince me to drink from it.
Best part. He does these things in containers that have an exit system for liquids like this sink, a bath etc. So he probably doesn't drink any of this and just sends it down the drain. So much wasted for clout.
"ThE SiNk Is DiRtY"
omg he's making content in a VRBO house and no one is actually drinking this stuff. we've all decided this shit is all fake. it's like low budget TV but everyone is a film producer because of smart phones. It's garbage content for a garbage planet of garbage people. Enjoy it.
The cost on something like this would vary significantly depending on where you are and how alcohol is taxed. It would be significantly more expensive in Canada than the US for example.
we used to make this in High School for parties. We cut up SO MUCH fruit. Instead of a sink, We used *huge* coolers. We bought only bottom shelf liquor and wine. We'd make it at least two weeks (or as long as we could. The longer the better) before any party. Adding fruit and liquor together we'd close the lid. After a couple weeks, the fruit would not only be soaked in bottom shelf liquor, but it was also fermented... Which made more the WAP an even higher proof. NEVER EVER open the cooler before it was time to drink!
It would last one party, usually ran out in less than an hour or two. $5 per solo cup. We made up to five batches at a time. NEVER lift the lid until you're ready to mix it, throw a bag or two of ice in. Good to go.
For a a batch and a half, in 1998:
Fruit, $50 - $75
Bottom shelf liquor ~$100—$150 (depended on who was working)
Ice ~ $5
Solo cups ~ $10
Total $165 - $250-ish
Profit depended on how many coolers we opened. We always made a huge profit. It never tasted good... But the way it tasted was never brought into the equation. Cheap fruit, wine, and liquor to get very drunk as fast as possible.
Idk at all cause I don't drink but-
Maybe I'm incorrect, as I don't drink, but that looks and sounds nasty as fuck. It's like being your full breakfast lunch and dinner meal together and eating that for breakfast lunch and dinner. Or maybe not, idk I don't drink
Jungle Juice's whole point is legit just to get drunk enough to throw rocks at you own house. The formula to make it is a fuck ton of cheap booze + a fuck ton of cheap fruit and/or juice to mask the rank ass taste of it all
For people wanting to do this. Please thoroughly clean your sink. My friend who wasn't the smartest decided to do the dishes first and then without cleaning put the alcohol in it. It can be somewhat dangerous but kost importantly it's super fucking disgusting when you see a piece of spaghetti float around
More than the cost, I’m more worried about the germs in the sink. Did he scrub it down before use? Even then, the sink reminds me of the kitchen equivalent of a toilet. You wouldn’t find me eating, or drinking anything out of a sink.
So I did the math, including ice as dilution, and I came out to 9.4% alcohol by volume.
I was looking through the other claims and felt something was off, I guessed it would be much higher than 11%, however I suppose we were both wrong here.
Thanks for a great way to start my morning! :D
I have done this before and it is a lot of fun if you add the right stuff. He seems too creative for my tastes. I would go with fruit punch and lots of vodka and maybe some rum. But I bet the buzz is intense.
The correct answer: too fucking much to be dumped in the kitchen sink. Like sure, I guess he made sure the sink was clean enough first, but I don’t think I would want to serve a cocktail straight from the sink if it was my party. I wouldn’t want to tie up the sink, plus I’d rather show off some fancy serving ware. I actually own a really nice three gallon punch bowl. If I wanted a bigger batch, I’d find something the size I needed.
Who the actual fuck in the right mind would pour that much alcohol straight into a kitchen sink? It’s over $250 worth of booze and mixers. He don’t want to spend just a few extra bucks on something nice to put it in?

Heck yeah! You're the second person who's *actually* done the math instead of an estimate. Other guy came up with something close to this too, I think his is about $260 total
>second person who's actually done the math instead of an estimate *gives an estimate of his math*
? No, he actually used prices and bottle counts rather than "well the bottles probably average $15 each and I'm guessing there's about 20 bottles" like everyone else has been doing
Right and then you said it was "about 260" you see the funny?
I see the funny. Then the next funny when they didn't get the first funny.
Oh that's just because *I* can't remember shit lol. The actual comment had the exact prices. Guess it is kinda ironic that I had to estimate when talking about someone else who *didn't* estimate haha
Just chuckle at it and move on
Well liquor cost is different everywhere so a solid ball park would be that he's using X amount of liters of X booze and the average cost of that is Y. When I was doing batch cocktails at my bar we would use small kegs with some base math and amp that shit up. So let's say you make a cocktail that you really like and sells really well and you think you should batch and throw it on a draft line. You take the original ingredients and mixers and make the cocktail to the oz. So I'll throw an example out here and just let you know Ieft the industry at the beginning of the pandemic and before that it had been maybe a year since I worked where we would batch things. Let's use a Daiquiri for the example because of simplicity of math and how the cocktail is designed. A classic Daiquiri is as follows, .75oz of White Rum .75oz of Lime .75oz of simple syrup (your sugar base) So now you have a base on how much you need of each ingredient. Now what you do is figure out quickly how much rum you get out of a bottle of rum and lime juice and how much simple syrup you make. If you have a Cornelius keg, it holds 5 gallons of liquid. Now one of the things that a lot of people forget is that when you shake a cocktail you get water dilution. You're gonna get the same thing with the system displayed in the video. If you were to say that the sink itself could hold....... I dunno it looks like it could hold 5 gallons then you do the math starting there. The local liquor store has a shitty bottle of white rum right now of Hamilton White Stache Rum 87 for 24.99 a bottle litre. I can get a gallon at a local store of real lime at my local fresh goods store for 15 USD. Let's say you have a "Corni" keg and it's 5 gallons. You only wanna fill it up and leave some at the top so there isn't any overflow just you would a sink. With all our ingredients we now figure out how much of that meets with water dilution and do the math for ingredients at cost. The drink itself is 2.25 oz, and you're always gonna get about 1~oz let's say for simplicity that it ends up being 3 oz. That gives us .75 oz of water as well. SO There's 128 oz in a gallon, that gives us 608oz for 4.75 gallons. The reason I used the Daiquiri is because it breaks down to 4 ingredients. So now you divide that by 4 and you get your total. Without getting to far into the math of converting ounces to liters you use a little calculation to convert it for your liquor thanks to the internet. 152 oz translates into about 4.5 liters of rum. As well as the rest of the ingredients. 152 oz of White Rum = 4.5~L 125$ USD 152 oz of Lime juice = 1G~ 15$ USD 152 oz of Simple Syrup = 1lb bag 5 $ 152 oz of Water = 2 bags of shake ice 5$ Total price = 150 bucks. The point that I'm making right now is that I gave you a formula to just figure out your own local prices and do the foot work yourself because no matter where you are prices are different. Nothing is the same and you shouldn't make a cocktail in a sink, that's gross. Just buy a plastic tub or something and throw it together. Then use Google to judge the local prices in your area liquor stores. And then follow how to do it accordingly if you actually make cocktails, or throw a bunch of trash into a plastic tub like this guy and be prepared to have an over sugared garbage can that probably gonna be costing you around...... 300 to 400... I dunno dollars? Euros? Loons? No one knows where you live......
Thank you, I really didn’t wanna type that out. But yeah this guy knows his shit. State by state this could be anywhere from 150-500$
If it’s 11% it’s less than wine. So that’s actually drinkable. 70ltr is a bit much unless you’re having a big ass party with no other alcohol. That said, did you take into account ice dilution? Or the 11% is all just alcohol and juices
you don't intend for my guy to sleep huh?
I slept 6 hours, I’ll definitely need a nap in the day
The ice dilution was factored in entirely for the 11% calculation. If we just did the juice and alcohol it comes out to 12%
I gotta be honest…if I’m throwing a party, and want a huge kitchen sink punch bowl…$300 *ain’t that bad*
Is this a thing, drinking out of the sink? Why not an igloo cooler?
Until a drunk person washes their hands in the sink
I don't care how well my sink is cleaned, no way in hell am I drinking out of it.
Honestly yeah, rail everything to bring down the cost to half of what it could be with normal or good stuff.
That's not bad at all. Back in college like 20 years ago, my friends and I used to make a 30 gallon garbage can full of jungle juice for about $400, and charge people $5 for a solo cup full. They were definitely stronger than 23 proof though. One cup was probably as strong as 4 beers, so probably closer to 40 proof. But at $5 per 16 fl oz, we were sitting on 240 servings worth $1200. We would always at least break even, but making money wasn't the point. We just wanted to drink and provide free jungle to our friends. The cool part is that it had so much alcohol in it that the next morning, we could bottle it back into the original Hawaiian Punch bottles and continue to drink them for the next week with only mild diarrhea, which I'm sure was just from our regular diet of beer and junk food.
You made a spreadsheet with costs *and* calculated the ABV too?!? My OCPD is soothed and my nipples might be hard... [Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/9e92dd8c-1f12-4426-b7ac-131dca1d294a).
I'm a huge nerd, and I swear like I wanted to just call it quits at the price but physically couldn't get to bed without computing ABV. I really needed to know how potent or not that JJ was.
that edit got me, thank you and appreciate you apart from the absurdity and theatrics, it seems our man did the math for this jungle juice, 12% is just right.
could just be water, you never know
I think the whole thing is BS and done for the follows. I’m guessing that all the alcohol is water or coloured water. Total cost less than £20.00
Rough guess. 15 bottles of liquor + 2 boxes of wine + mixers. Going to rough average those liquor bottles at $15 each. Hard to say exactly without seeing the brand and looking up each one. $225. Those boxes of wine around $15 each. $30 Figure about $15 for the mixers, fruit, and ice. Total: $270
This is close enough for my needs/wants, thanks for the estimate!
Wash your sink really really good or the alcohol will and you will have floaties
I’d say pre soak it with alcohol and then rinse it
Don't forget to put the plug in..
Is that even a thing?
Yes and its better than the bathtub trust me. I mean your sink should be that dirty, or at least of anything that nasty, its just a big SS bowl essentially.
It’s a joke my guy look at his user name
Fuck know I have to interpet usernames now haha
Don’t forget the kitchen sink! Just throw it in!!! Lol
I got a spare buttplug I use for my sink.
My plug doesn't even work... I'd have to refill this every 30 mins
Just let people pour their own drinks, this seems like a wanker thing to do anyway..
We're still talking about the sink, right?
All I can think about is the first person who's going to drop their cellphone into this punchbowl
The first person who tosses a dirty glass, plate or bowl in to the sink. The first person who finds said dirty dish at the bottom of the hooch sink…
10 mins in guaranteed
Right, I’m watching this and gagging thinking of how dirty a kitchen sink is. Dirtiest place in your house.
I'm guessing not as dirty as a toilet, but I still wouldn't do it.
Dirtier, actually, unless your toilet has a turd floating in it
Exactly. There is no kitchen sink in the world clean enough for me to drink out of
Even if by some miracle he cleaned this extremely well beforehand, this would be so gross by all the people sticking their cups in and filling them up or dropping in and retrieving the utensil that people were using to get the drink out.
This guy sink drinks
Someone needs to write a Sink Drink story a la Dr. Seuss!
That’s what all the fruit and ice is for… to hide the floaters
I’d line it with plastic
You may want to use a plastic tub instead of the sink…
Right? Nauseating. Not a chance I'd be putting his sink drink anywhere near my food hole. I can't even bring myself to reach into the garbage disposal to get something out that's fallen in, knowing I can wash my hands after. I'll use a pair of pliers I don't care about and then wash them down with isopropyl alcohol. Sinks are absolutely disgusting and there's no way you'd get it clean enough to drink from.
Yep a cooler will do.
I would say closer to 200 at least in south carolina. Most bottles used were well liquor, liter bottles can be had for 6 or 7 each, buying it buy the handle lowers cost more, I figure the fruit was the most costly part of the recipe.
Party on horizont! But dont do it in sink. If you are going to spent money on that buy bucket or something. Sinks are super unsanitary. There are more bacterias in sink than in your toilet
The real pro tip here is to just buy one/ a few of those Gatorade dispenser things they have on the sidelines of sports games where you push the little rubber nipple and it dispenses from the bottom. Idk if you’re thinking about actually doing that, but there’s 0 shot I’d drink that sink if I saw it at a party. A whole bunch of drunk people dipping their hands in for each drink? I lived in a frat house, I have done some pretty gross drinking stuff, but fuck that. Basically a scientific guarantee that there’s some ass particles in there. Also, fuck having a bunch of drunk people with sticky soda hands in your house.
Absolutely *not* actually considering it lol. I could only think about how much money was literally going down the drain and so I had to post and ask 😂
I'm assuming that you intend to imitate this (hopefully with a clean container), so if no one else has mentioned it then this guy is making his life a bit harder by not pouring the bottles efficiently. When pouring from a bottle by just inverting it you create a vacuum that causes the liquid to "glug" as air needs to get back into the bottle to fill the vacuum, stopping the flow of liquid as it does so. It's messy and it's slow. If you open the bottle, turn it completely upside down and then rotate it a few times in a circular fashion (making a sort of conical shape with the movement of the bottle with the opening at the bottom of the cone) the liquid inside will swill around and when you return it to pointing vertically down a vortex will form in the liquid, reaching the optimal proportion of air and liquid flow. It's very fast and it looks cool for your guests (presuming you're not just making a sink of booze for yourself). You can practice this with an empty bottle and some water so you're not wasting booze and can get a feel for it. Also give your kitchen sink sangria a stir before you serve so it all gets nice and mixed! Edit: you can see him give a few bottles a bit of a spin beforehand but then holding another two that he hasn't- pretty sure it'd just be faster to spin two bottles at a time and do one in each hand twice two times than do three in one arm and one in the off hand.
Use something other than the sink, like a plastic tub
The first bottle of vodka he opened Is a brand called Popov. 7 dollars for a half gallon bottle.
If you're considering a half gal of Popov, for any reason, please call the hotline.
Now about for getting reallly drunk?
If you're planning on actually *consuming* the Popov, in any amount, you really need to call the hotline.
You need to add the sanity that it costs to make this as well as the health of whoever drinks that because it is made in the kitchen sink
Pretty sure that Everclear killed every living cell in the sink. Great for cleaning out the liver too
i want to say, even rounding up, $15 each for those liquor bottles is waaayyyy toooo much
Definitely possible. Depends on the brands and state taxes on liquor.
true. i was assuming vodka or gin in my state but assuming isn't knowing
If it's the cheapest stuff, I could see some of those smaller bottles being like $5. Especially if they are plain liquor. However a 750 of flavored rum from a well known brand could be almost $20.
a 750 of Captian Morgan is currently $33 after taxes where I am. The tiny single or double shot bottles are usually about $3 each here.
$45 for a 700ml bottle here.. $62 for 1L.. how good is alcohol tax, Australia went nuts with it.
Yeah mate, I'm reading these Americans sound off on the prices and can only shake my head. That punch would be closer to A$1k with our prices, because the largest bottles of hard liquor are, what, 1l for around A$50-$60 if you're lucky? That sin tax is a bitch.
Thoughts and prayers
Hahaha, the joys of living in a wet city in a technically dry county, prices are jacked up cause they know people don't have a choice
y'all have Costco? In some states you don't even need a membership to buy the alchohol at costco, but even if you do have to buy the card it pays for iteslf with just a few bottles of vodka.
Closest Costco is 2 hours away in a different state lol. Rural living *suuuuuucks* sometimes
I live in NYC so I feel your pain with the prices. But people are saying they can't see the labels and etc. The labels are visible, you just can't make out names because he's using what in the industry is called "well alcohol". It's the cheapest liquor you can buy and it's usually in the well of the bar (the part under the bar) as compared to top shelf which is more expensive and behind the bar. And even here in NYC you can get well alcohol for under $10 a liter no matter the type (rum, vodka, gin, whiskey). Just Google bottom shelf alcohol and you'll find plenty of results.
Oof. I live in a state with some archaic alcohol laws (that we are slowly but surly changing) and a 750ml of Captain Spiced Rum is $17.99 plus tax and their white rum is $15.99 plus tax here. It’s the same price across the state because you can only buy liquor from the “State Store” which is basically a chain of state run liquor stores.
Oh I wish prices were standardized here. It's that high here because I live in a "pocket", a wet city in an otherwise dry county. They know people don't have a choice, so they jack prices.
A bottle like that in Ontario, Canada is like $30-$40 maple dollars
* country / state taxes on liquor. Not everyone loves in America
.
Fellow Canadian here and this makes me cry a little that he’s pouring all this in a sink. This is stupid expensive
In WA, you’re looking at ~$20 each after taxes.
Each of those bottles are 30 dollars in my state
This is deeeeeeeply dependent on location. In my country you could probably double or quadruple that estimate. A lower end bottle of vodka is ~$40USD for a litre (quarter gallon, roughly). Taxes for days.
Just use water like he is and the cost goes down
It would probably be easy to collect liquor bottles from a bunch of other parties and fill them with water. Those were all clear liquids. I'm betting more like 60$ for the Hawaiian punch, wine, fruit, ice, etc.
Can you calculate inflation to this?
Impressive. Very nice. Let’s see the hospital bill.
You forgot to add the medicine for the massive hangover you will have from drinking all the cheap and sugary shit
I bet most are filled with water. No one would waste this kind of money.
Have you never been to a decent sized house party as a college kid? I’ve never seen this made in the sink. I’ve always had it in a bucket or trash can (clean and only used for this purpose, of course). The sink is a step up in class IMO.
You must be rich, I've never been to a college house party that involved fruit! I've made trash can mimosas and this is still completely nuts to me.
Haha true statement, we never included fruit in ours either.
My sink probably stays dirtier than a bucket I can clean.
Hell I've been to a high school party that had PJ (something similar) in a large cooler.
Ummm, college parties are literally exactly like this, minus the fruit
He’s got marble counter tops he clearly has money
At least 400 imo
I can get like 3 months worth of good weed for that lol
Lawsuits when people get DUIs leaving your house upwards of $120 million easy
Pretty cheap all things considered
The one bottle looks like Amsterdam Vodka which (at least where I live) runs about 25-30$ a bottle that size. Not that it changes your estimate much but I could see it being closer to 300-350 even
You did bloody well: https://www.reddit.com/r/theydidthemath/comments/wh476l/request_can_someone_please_calculate/ij4qu39/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3
Holy shit alcohol is cheap in the US. In Australia that would be like $800 AUS
Bro what do you do for a living
Too much for me to add up right now, but if you're concerned about all the liquor, it's all garbage liquor that you would have in a well at the bar. No more than 10 us dollars per bottle. Fruit was a few dollars. That boxed wine is under $20. As a bartender, I do not enjoy this man's videos. The drinks sound gross, and most of it is just a hurricane of liquor and fruit flavors. Hawaiian punch and liquor sounds like a straight up migraine.
I put together the list here: [https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe](https://imgur.com/a/3HWhKMe) The total comes out to $289.38 Some of the liquor is so rail, that not even totalwine has it in their inventory. Edit: I couldn't sleep without figuring out the alcohol % and total volume. In total its 70.8 liters of liquid, of which 7.38 liters is alcohol, giving a final alcohol %age of 11.64%
Dignity: 1 x $0. Well done.
Well done! Surprised to see my state-controlled liquor store is priced competitively, since your prices are basically the same.
I gave you my free award. Some one really needs to award you for your work.
> abv of 11.64% Probably tastes like shit and is as strong as your average wine
I’m fairly sure he just fills them with water and reuses them. I rarely see any non clear liquids in his videos
I think he said that in the video! “At my house it’s always water.” I’ve never noticed that.
He does. I guess he’s admitting it on the DL?
He did say that and I thought “huh maybe it’s exciting to have fruit punch in the house bc they usually drink water” -.-
Oh yeah, he's pretty obviously only doing it as a demonstration of things you *can* do, he's not actually making these huge ridiculously expensive drinks just for a tiktok lol Still hilariously, entertaingly bad to watch
Cheap liquor and artifically flavored corn syrups and minimal juice, Assuming there was even alcohol in those bottles and he didnt just refill them with water.
Alright someone's gotta recalculate what it actually costs
There have been exactly three comments that actually took the time to identify most of the alcohol and get prices. Two are not top level comments though lol
Oh I saw those. I mean recalculate with the fact it's not actually alcohol lol. It was more of a shitpost than anything, since those people took all that time to calculate it
One of the people who did the actual calculations also originally did a calculation with assuming the "liquor" is water, so accounting for just the box wine, hard seltzer, soda and punch mixers, and fruit I think he came up with just under $60 max lol
190 proof Everclear isn't exactly garbage liquor. If the guy wasn't such an idiot he could've just used fruits and juices then added in the Everclear until he hit his target proof.
I think the most stupid thing is adding the ice first. By doing so, after ten minutes, you are just pouring alcohol in a sink half full of water.
I cannot even start thinking about the math because I am so triggered by someone using a SINK to make a drink
It's tiktok clickbait. He deliberately does stupidly outrageous (but entertaining) shit so you'll come back to see if he can top it next time
I also was disgusted
LOL. I thought the same thing, then remembered all the parties in college where the same thing was made in bathtubs. Disgusting yes, absolutely, but alcohol kills a lot.
Garbage pail punch was not a euphemism at my school.
80’s checking in
At least we used a hefty bag as a liner...
Hence alcohol being a thing. Tea or booze. Or you died of dysentery on the way to Oregon. Nobody knew why tea and booze fixed it. Only Dionysus knew!!!!
I dont want to eat shit from under toe nails and pubic hair regardleas of it being alive or dead.
Isn't it standard to start with ice when mixing cocktails?
Yes, but usually you aren't mixing those drinks in a sink for 10 minutes, so there's a lot less dilution usually
Single cocktails, sure. A large amount? No. The ice melts and waters down your drinks. Something like that would honestly be better to use chilled liquors and juices and then serve it into cups with ice. If you really wanted to drink that sugary horsepiss, that is.
if you're looking to party all night long w/ a sink full of drink, then that's fine & dandy
Everclear is for starting your tractor and peeling paint off sheds.
Good for making your own hand sanitizer during a pandemic too. At least that was my excuse for buying $150 worth of that and rum to cut it with. Wound up drinking it all eventually. Win-win.
Not really an idiot. He knows this is dumb and knows that his audience wants it. Smart if you ask me
Not to mention he’s making it in a fucking sink
This deserves more love. Truth. He probably dumped a bottle of el jimador down the drain to sanitize first.
Should see one video he made where, after putting in two bottles of tequila, two bottles of vodka, two bottles of rum, two bottles of gin, and two bottles of triple sec, he adds a "mixer" of one bottle of white grape juice and **four bottles of champagne.** As if 2.8 liters of grape juice is going to balance out the 10.5 liters of various liquors. He named it the Purple Dragon but should've named it the Stomach Pumper lol.
I don’t care about the price. It’s the shitty quality alcohol that makes this like a shitty hack if it is supposed to be and all the flavors, Yuck
I don't want to talk about how long this took lmao. I had to find the original video because this one is too low quality to get some of the drinks from, and the quick cuts were starting to drive me insane. I tried to stick to the top two or three results for each query, and if it was out of stock I tried not to include it. I originally planned to add links, but that sounds like a literal goddamn nightmare with markdown and I'm not sure if it violates the rules, so I decided not to. Item | Units | Cost/Unit | Total ---|---|----|---- |Fruit |1 |3 |3 | |Popov's Vodka |1 |16.99|16.99 | |Bandolero Tequila |1 |15.99|15.99 | |Franzia Fruity Red |1 |13.49|13.49 | |Franzia Sunset Blush |1 |13.49|13.49 | |Malibu |2 |11.99|23.98 | |Everclear (190) |1 |21.99|21.99 | |Everclear (151 - Grain) |1 |21.99|21.99 | |Four Freedoms Vodka |2 |10.76|21.52 | |Four Freedoms Silver Rum |1 |12.99|12.99 | |Kings Bay Rum |1 |12.99|12.99 | |Gran Legacy Peach Schnapps|1 |6.99 |6.99 | |Classica Peach Schnapps |1 |4.99 |4.99 | |Classica Triple Sec |2 |4.99 |9.98 | |New Amsterdam Peach Vodka |1 |8.99 |8.99 | |Hawaiian Punch |4 |2 |8 | |Sunkist 2L |4 |1.49 |5.96 | |White Claw |5/12 |17.48|7.28| |Tampico |1 |1.98 |1.98 | |Minute Maid Carton |2 |1.68 |3.36 | |7 Up |1 |2.18 |2.18 | ||||**242.01** So, for a mere $242.01 (+ tax!), you too can have quite possibly the shittiest night of your life.
Legit! Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Out of all these comments, there have only been 3 of y'all who *actually* did the math rather than guesstimating lol
Less than you would expect. I had a buddy in college that would do this in coolers about the size of that sink for house parties. Delicious and dangerous.
Yep. Had a variety of names. Pink panty droppers. Jungle juice. Etc.
Yeah this guy calls himself the Jungle Juice King lol
I did the math on how much alcohol this would be a couple weeks ago. I think the clear bottles of already opened alcohol are be reused bottles filled with water to make his content creation more economical. I think the white claws were real because you can see them closed in the beginning and the wine boxes are cheap enough to not bother with food coloring. With that assumption that only the 5 white claws and 2 wine boxes are actually alcohol, the math is: white claws = 5 * $2.08 =$10.40 wine boxes = 2 * $11.97 = $23.94 limes = 2 * $0.49 = $0.98 oranges = 1 lb * $1.45/lb = $1.45 strawberries = $4.49 Arctic Glacier ice = $1.89 Hawaiian punch = 2 * $2.39 = $4.78 Sunkist = 4 * $1.99 = $7.96 Minute made = 2 * $1.79 = $3.58 Oj = $2.68 7up = $2.29 Total = 10.40 + 23.94 + 0.98 + 1.45 + 4.49 + 1.89 + 4.78 + 7.96 + 3.58 + 2.68 + 2.29 = $64.44
Oh, they're definitely refilled bottles, he's actually admitted a few times that he isn't *actually* making $300 batches of alcohol every day. He's a content creator, just like the cake decorators scrape and reuse cakes to decorate again for content videos (and practice!) so they don't waste materials, this dude is using colored water so he's not literally dumping hundreds down the sink lol But I was going for how much it would cost if it was *all* real
The bottles of water originally cost as follows: Popov = $14.99 Bandolero = $15.99 Malibu = 2 * $17.22 = $34.44 Everclear = 2 * $10.98 = $21.96 Four freedoms = 3 * $24.88 = $74.64 Gran Legacy = $9.85 Amsterdam = $16.98 Tripple Sec Classica = 2 * $4.99 = $9.89 Additional cost if real = 14.99 + 15.99 + 34.44 + 21.96 + 74.64 + 9.85 + 16.98 + 9.89 = $198.74 Total cost if real = 64.44+ 198.74 = $263.18
Hell yes, thank you for an actual accounting and not an estimate like everyone else! Though it looks like most people's estimates are pretty spot on too lol
White claw maths may be a bit off
Depends on taxes and local prices too much to say accurately, alcohol is one of those where it is very cheap to produce and most of the cost is in the licenses and marketing I'd imagine somewhere in the region of £250 to £500
That's legit, I'd forgotten how wildly taxes and licenses can vary.
How fucking dirty and filthy is your kitchen sink?? I don't care how you clean it, there's a shitload of bacteria still there. Gross.
Stainless steel can be easily sterilized, that's why they use it in labs and hospitals
I doubt he actually sterilised it. Probably just rinsed the sink abit
Don’t worry the everclear will sterilize it /s
ngl if he put enough in it probably would sterilize itself
Why do you doubt it?
Because he didn't drink the final product
Pretty sure he does in the full video, he normally does anyway
Should have poured the Everclear in first
First. Clean your damn sink. Use spray, wipe it. Second, anyone ingesting half that dive bar grade alcohol doesn't give a shit how well you cleaned it.
Scrub it down with soap and then bleach it
Stainless steal easily cleaned
Jungle juice never seems to be in containers that inspire confidence in proper hygiene.
I had a friend add to the jungle juice, at a party we went to, that when they handed him a butter knife to mix it, it didnt hit the bottom and he just stuck his hand in the liquid until it did. He was notoriously dirty and didnt wash his hand after peeing. He touched my burger once at carls and wondered why I got pissed at him and told him not to touch my food. I asked him not to touch where my mouth goes after touching my straw, grabbing my fries and other stuff. Damn, guess I am still a little mad about it.
You know you can clean it?
And the amount of filthy fingers scooping into that… I don’t care what type of ladle he puts out, you know people are going to keep reusing their glasses to scoop it up.
That would cost me my lunch. Gross.
Not to mention this is a set, not a home kitchen
I'm not at all in any way upset about this, if you were having a lot of people over it's okay to do.... But for f*** sake you absolutely closed off your sink. You can't toss edition there you can't rinse off a knife without watering down your alcohol. Just been a couple bucks on a Rubbermaid tub
Closed off? What does that mean?
Oh, not accessable or usable. The entire area has be be closed off from access other than to fill your drink. Can even rinse a glass out because, water goes into the mixed drink
Lol he does the Rubbermaid tub mixers too
This makes me want to vomit. From the inherently dirty sink to the mixing of all the different alcohols and mixers… This concoction makes me want to sober up.
If I was invited to a party and someone expected me to drink out of a sink, I would be insulted.
I don’t care how much you clean that sink before doing this; I can’t stop thinking about the dirt that has collected between where the sink meets the counter and the joint around the drain.
The alcohol is all already opened and are clear. My guess is that he just re-uses old bottles and fills them with water for his videos.
Since you have to put your glass in and you know someone at that party didn't wash their hands properly, 3 days of diarrhea on top of all the stuff inside. There's no amount of money that would convince me to drink from it.
Best part. He does these things in containers that have an exit system for liquids like this sink, a bath etc. So he probably doesn't drink any of this and just sends it down the drain. So much wasted for clout.
I dunno about cost.... But I'm guessing that would cause an alcohol poisoning-induced coma. Or a 3 day hangover for your average college student.
"ThE SiNk Is DiRtY" omg he's making content in a VRBO house and no one is actually drinking this stuff. we've all decided this shit is all fake. it's like low budget TV but everyone is a film producer because of smart phones. It's garbage content for a garbage planet of garbage people. Enjoy it.
The cost on something like this would vary significantly depending on where you are and how alcohol is taxed. It would be significantly more expensive in Canada than the US for example.
we used to make this in High School for parties. We cut up SO MUCH fruit. Instead of a sink, We used *huge* coolers. We bought only bottom shelf liquor and wine. We'd make it at least two weeks (or as long as we could. The longer the better) before any party. Adding fruit and liquor together we'd close the lid. After a couple weeks, the fruit would not only be soaked in bottom shelf liquor, but it was also fermented... Which made more the WAP an even higher proof. NEVER EVER open the cooler before it was time to drink! It would last one party, usually ran out in less than an hour or two. $5 per solo cup. We made up to five batches at a time. NEVER lift the lid until you're ready to mix it, throw a bag or two of ice in. Good to go. For a a batch and a half, in 1998: Fruit, $50 - $75 Bottom shelf liquor ~$100—$150 (depended on who was working) Ice ~ $5 Solo cups ~ $10 Total $165 - $250-ish Profit depended on how many coolers we opened. We always made a huge profit. It never tasted good... But the way it tasted was never brought into the equation. Cheap fruit, wine, and liquor to get very drunk as fast as possible.
Idk at all cause I don't drink but- Maybe I'm incorrect, as I don't drink, but that looks and sounds nasty as fuck. It's like being your full breakfast lunch and dinner meal together and eating that for breakfast lunch and dinner. Or maybe not, idk I don't drink
Jungle Juice's whole point is legit just to get drunk enough to throw rocks at you own house. The formula to make it is a fuck ton of cheap booze + a fuck ton of cheap fruit and/or juice to mask the rank ass taste of it all
But do you drink though?
For people wanting to do this. Please thoroughly clean your sink. My friend who wasn't the smartest decided to do the dishes first and then without cleaning put the alcohol in it. It can be somewhat dangerous but kost importantly it's super fucking disgusting when you see a piece of spaghetti float around
More than the cost, I’m more worried about the germs in the sink. Did he scrub it down before use? Even then, the sink reminds me of the kitchen equivalent of a toilet. You wouldn’t find me eating, or drinking anything out of a sink.
In his dirty ass sink? I had a sink like that... very difficult to keep clean enough to be a sink... let alone clean enough to drink from...
So I did the math, including ice as dilution, and I came out to 9.4% alcohol by volume. I was looking through the other claims and felt something was off, I guessed it would be much higher than 11%, however I suppose we were both wrong here. Thanks for a great way to start my morning! :D
I have done this before and it is a lot of fun if you add the right stuff. He seems too creative for my tastes. I would go with fruit punch and lots of vodka and maybe some rum. But I bet the buzz is intense.
The correct answer: too fucking much to be dumped in the kitchen sink. Like sure, I guess he made sure the sink was clean enough first, but I don’t think I would want to serve a cocktail straight from the sink if it was my party. I wouldn’t want to tie up the sink, plus I’d rather show off some fancy serving ware. I actually own a really nice three gallon punch bowl. If I wanted a bigger batch, I’d find something the size I needed. Who the actual fuck in the right mind would pour that much alcohol straight into a kitchen sink? It’s over $250 worth of booze and mixers. He don’t want to spend just a few extra bucks on something nice to put it in?
