libs Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Mix with Pepsi? I've got a bottle of 69% Grenadian slop that is only used to give people who think they 'can drink' a shock... Terrible stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsdad Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I have some of the over proof Jamaican rum - tastes so bad I use it as a degreaser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Mix it with decent ginger beer. We used to do it 50/50 a pint at a time in the army in Germany. Great stuff, I once tripped over in the bogs after a load of that stuff and removed a urinal from the wall with my face. Didnt feel a thing and not a scratch.

Thunderbird Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 80% proof is only 40% abv. Mix it with coke, a dash of lime juice and some ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh1 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Mix it with decent ginger beer. We used to do it 50/50 a pint at a time in the army in Germany. Great stuff, I once tripped over in the bogs after a load of that stuff and removed a urinal from the wall with my face. Didnt feel a thing and not a scratch. As above,have obliterated any memory of a night out after mixing it with good ginger beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
