Got any tips for Everclear?

Question

I'm trying Everclear for the first time this friday with a few friends. Anyone have any tips when drinking everclear?

Answer 1

Haha yes definitly dilute it with fruit juice and put fruit (apples, oranges, etc) in it. The first time I ever had PJ (punch, fruit, everclear) I was stupid and didn't know the fruit would have an effect...but it sure does!

But yes, be careful, a guy in my dorm freshman year of college drank a water bottle of everclear...and he had to be rushed to the hospital. It was BAAAD! Not that I think you would be as silly as that guy, but yeah be cautious :).

Answer 2

You can make an "apple pie" with Everclear. My friend made it before and it tastes exactly like an apple pie. I'm not sure what it has in it though besides the Everclear. Go to google and type in apple pie. Hope this helps! It's really yummy, but be careful because it does bad things to you  ;)

Answer 3

Make sure you mix it with something, don't drink to much of it and don't get naked in public :o)

Answer 4

use it as lighter fluid for your bbq! No seriously if you want it neat then either straight up shots or over a lump of ice. Otherwise from my experience you can put it with just about any kind of mixer or juice or, put it with something a bit smoother with a flavour like a schnapps or jagermeister.

Answer 5

Dilute it significantly with fruit juice or cool-aid.  Cut up a bunch of fruit in there and make "hairy buffalo" or "hunch punch" or "jungle juice."  Or whatever you want to call it.  Be smart, it will kick your ***.

Tilt empty bottles on a 45 degree angle and light a lighter close to the open end.  It provides a nice poof.  Be careful though.

EDIT: Drinking it straight is very dangerous.  Have a chaser handy and count each 1oz shot as 2 1/2 drinks.  It isn't pleasant straight because it has no flavor.  Try 151 instead.  At least it tastes like something.

Answer 6

My boyfriend works for the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control, & it isn't even legal to purchase Everclear in the state of Virginia without a doctor's license.  Keep in mind that a single shot of Everclear is equal to TWENTY beers!  If I were you, I would steer clear.  But if you must partake in the h**l-on-Earth that is Everclear, I would recommend, as previous people have stated, that you dilute it with a big jug of Jungle Juice.  My boyfriend once drank it straight & fell out a second story window!  It is not to be fooled with...
