A friend got me a liter of everclear once and I mixed it with orange juice. 3 parts OJ and 1 part everclear. You could still set it on fire. Your liver would not recommend.

I went to a party where they made jungle juice, and my girlfriend asked me to take it slow. I exclaimed “tastes like juice to me!” Bet you can guess how that went

linkinkampf19@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 149d (5 replies)

Did the same at a house party after eating 2 Cup Noodles, as a college kid does... The shag area carpet did not appreciate that, nor did the hosts. First and last time I got black out drunk.

Ohh and this jungle juice was Everclear with Surge.

I can’t remember the last time I blacked out.

Everclear with Surge.

ಠ_ಠ what the fuck did they expect?

linkinkampf19@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 148d (1 reply)

As dumbass college students, I'm betting they were thinking that everyone there could handle it, or not thinking at all. Never drank much before that, so being green with alcohol didn't help either.

mojofrododojo@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 148d

so being green with alcohol

everclear and surge will make lots of things green lol

Oh it wasn’t quite that bad, just nausea and a killer hangover Edit: well not just nausea, profuse vomiting, which is probs why it wasn’t worse!

Once in college my buddy and I each took a double shot of everclear to start the night. It burned going down, and I think we were good after that

That’s like pounding a four loco to pregame. Haha

Godric@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 149d

We've been there before too, the effect was similar. One drinking game I had to absent myself was Edward Loco Hands XD

four loco

a friend convinced me to drink one of these. jesus h fucking crucified dude, that was the worst, like drinking a colt 45 with a antifreeze mixer. while I've been drunker, I don't think I've ever felt as ugh just fucking gross after drinking that swill

yeah their flavor profile seems to be "take something way too fucking far and then put a bunch of malt liquor in it"

My everclear story is short, sweet, and typical, lol.

Friends and I were out of town a few states away for a big concert with limited locations. We randomly hung out with the guys in the hotel room next door who were drinking Everclear, among other things.

One friend had a capful and reacted harshly. Then while the other friend had their capful, I went for the bottle itself to save some time. I also made a show of not taking a sip but tipping back the bottle and taking a big full gulp. I'd also like to point out that I've never been a drinker, so I have no built up tolerance for any part of the experience including the burn.

It was decades ago and I vividly remember the experience as "my lungs instantly boiled off all moisture and my insides rapidly shrunk into a desiccated strand of human jerky and then exploded like that nazi in The Last Crusade."

You’d need to cut it a little heavier than 1:1 with the OJ for it to not be flammable.

How does it compare to eg. a Smirnoff? I've never had one before

Toes@ani.social · 61 pts · 149d (9 replies)

well, everclear is a reasonable antiseptic. So maybe they cancel each other out?

Then that leaves only the cancer caused by both.

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 27 pts · 149d (2 replies)

If it wasn't a low grade meat it probably would be fine. I mean it would just be beef tartare at that point without the seasonings. Which you wouldn't taste anyways, because the alcohol would keep you taste buds in a state of the fuck was that

trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 148d (1 reply)

Excess consumption of red meat is a cancer risk. And excess in this case is over about 100g per day. So even if it would be just beef from a country that doesn't allow hormones and antibiotics to be used in meat production it would still be a risk.

sear@fedinsfw.app · 2 pts · 148d

I had 250g per week in mind, which is even lower

I have a friend who CRAVES raw beef like a lot. I beg him to chop up his own, tried showing him how to make a safer tartare and I still catch him wheezing the mince.

It's called beef tartare and it's a delicacy.

TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip · 25 pts · 149d (4 replies)

Please don’t use pre ground meat for tartare. Besides being off cuts, pre ground is exposed to way more pathogens than a slab of beef you ground/chop yourself.

80/20 ground beef patty is not a delicacy and certainly not tartare.
