skittles vodka

Keylow · 29 Jun 2006 at 11:13

Since there will be a small party at my house on Saturday due to exams beign finished, I decided to give this a go. This is the result after 12 hours.

Contains 70CL of Glen's vodka (don't mock, I can't afford the good stuff

) and 4 packs of skittles, minus the green ones. Let's see how it turns out

You'd be more likely to be mocked if you were to mix good vodka with skittles, so good job you didn't.

Just the normal sized ones from a local newsagent. It may not be enough but here's hoping.

Just the normal sized ones you buy in the shop.

congratulations, you've just made "Angry Juice"... The highest alcoholic content, but it tastes just like a soft drink with a kick......

Prepare for some high-NRG hi-jinx.

must say, I did this with the foxes glacier mints, two bags into about 70cl of vodka, and its really really nice.

methinks I'll have to make a load more for a mates party coming up.

if you are just throwing skittles in a bottle of vodka the drink will have the same alcohol content as........a normal bottle of vodka,-how much are skittles these days ? you can buy a flavouring for the vodka for just over a quid and not have to filter.

cool looking site, have you ordered anything from there personally? what's it like?

pugster · 29 Jun 2006 at 15:57

yup ,over last few years ive ordered hundreds of bottles ,some of the lighter tasting ones need 2 in a litre of spirit ,the extra dark jamacian rum one is probably the best rum ive ever tasted,they even do absinthe flavoring that contains thujone

, remember if you buy a cheap rough vodka to add 1 teaspoon of glycerine (available in cake section adsa ect) the glycerine smooths the drink (ages it) ,you can make petrol taste like pop by adding glycerine (tho i wouldnt advise it), dont drink right away when adding flavourings ,leave the bottle for at least a week once added to allow for it to blend with the neutral spirit.

gotta giev this one a try,
my claim to fame was whisky jelly: Red label, Black label, Jack daniels and famous grouse... all mixxed in with strawberry jelly. - didnt taste that bad, but it was a bit of a nock out drink lol... or food :S

Dwbreeze1982 · 29 Jun 2006 at 17:07

i have been reading this post and found it highly amusing. i have never tried any of the mixtures but thought why dosent someone try using strawberry campino sweets as they taste lush

Dwbreeze1982 · 29 Jun 2006 at 19:18

just went out and bought a bottle of vodka and some skittles so i will see what i tastes like. it looks good at the mo, very red but the ` SCUM ` is putting me off at the moment.

Skittles worked very well for me (minus green and purple, two regular bags). However, Fruit Salad bars didn't. Far too much fat in there. Paper towels is the best thing I've found for filtering, just don't filter into a bowl cause all the alcohol evaporates!

Dwbreeze1982 · 29 Jun 2006 at 19:55

you took the purple ones out. woops i left them in. i was going to filter using coffe filters into anothe bottle.

Yet another revival for my skittles vodka thread.

I'm so proud.

I still have quite a bit of the 70cl left for consumption here at home.

Jumpingmedic · 29 Jun 2006 at 20:53

I'm glad it's been rivived, It's inspired me to make a fresh batch! Yet to try that foxes mints vodka one though... must try to remember that one.

Dwbreeze1982 · 29 Jun 2006 at 21:05

Yes i was just looking on oc and found this thread so i thought what the hell i am going to a party on sat so i went and bought some skittles and vodka, it smells lush. cant wait to try it.

DRZ · 29 Jun 2006 at 21:17

I did this about 3 years ago! Christ almighty that stuff caused some fun nights!

Not that I really drank any of it myself

Tempted to make some on payday

Because it doesn't taste like it... it's actually fairly easily quaffable, but usually with disatrous results....
