I've tried this and it acutally works!

How much do the Brita filters add up to? And what about the cost of your time. I've lost the ability to drink McCormicks or other cheap handles - shit is just nasty. I'm not in my first month of college anymore.

A new Brita pitcher with a filter is like $15 or so. I'd imagine you could probably filter about 5 handles worth before you'd have to change the filter. The cost of your time is however much you think you're worth lol. It'd take 2+ hours I'd presume to filter an entire handle of McCormicks or whatever the cheap distileries around your town are producing.

DSchultz, are you in college? If so you shouldnt be shocked like this. The vast majority of us (students) arent exactly worried about the taste.

This would be great for helping to prevent hangovers from 'Jungle Juice'. Not that I care much though, that is usually what the girls drink.

vodka for jungle juice, eh. Try some everclear, hits you harder :D

i don't care what the hell you try to do to 7 dollar vodka, you can't make it grey goose. all vodka tastes like nasty hairspray except for grey goose, imo. that's hilarious, though

I get grey goose for like $10... :P

At least I get cheap alcohol here.. buahahaha.

Well, $15/5 = $3 to each handle, so maybe $15-16 per.

2 hours of my time.....waiting to get drunk......for each handle distilled is priceless.
But I think we'll still do it here for the fun of it.


Anyone else think it just tased better in the experiment because they got drunker and it mattered less?

A drink in a NYC lounge costs about 10-11 bucks

[PanamaE30]

Per drink? I'm talking about per bottle...

50 cents for beer, sometimes cheaper. $4 for good rum, $12 for good scotch, $30 for good wine.

Personal I go with a cost/ benefit analysis in my purchases of vodka which is usually for the wifes bloody mary's = skyy vodka best taste for price or tanqeray Sterling Vodka, IMO.

$16 for a handle of good mixer vodka is a damn good deal if you ask me.

Yeah, it takes a long time so you've gotta do it the day before or so.

Some body actually asked about your last point and they said that each taste was only about 1/4 or a shot or so. And with 20 minutes in between each taste as well as some food, I'm sure they weren't getting drunk at all.

[rwh11385]

Well, I'm saying Burnett's would be under $19 for 2 and a third fifths, ($24 for 3 fifths)......and a lot less trouble. I'd say $3 more for shit that goes down smooth and I don't have to do anything but drink it. Mixes well with Minute Maid. 8)

Okay. I just thought it would have been funnier if that was the reason it tasted better. Sure as fuck makes the shitty food @ 2am diners taste good.

Oh Snap, I thought you didnt drink to get drunk?




Ken- cocktail party? sissy....

[KenC]

Robert, you should try it with the Burnett's. That shit is pretty brutal already. On a side note, you guys have cheap alcohol in IN... it's a couple bucks more per fifth in Oregon, we have some of the highest taxes on alcohol in the US.

[Rob]

take that, blue state!

Ken- cocktail party? sissy....

I'm havin' like 10 hot sorostitutes over 8)
