what should I do with this?

I got this bottle of poteen from an ex about five years ago.
it was pretty rancid then and it's probably only gotten worse.

Now I'm moving house again and I'm sick of taking it with me, but I'm morally opposed to throwing away alcohol. What the hell should I do with it?

nB: Drinking is a last resort.

    pretty sure drinking this would kill future archaeologists and also their ancestors.

    I was at a party once where the host was handing out shots of Irish poteen, pouring them out of a rectangular tupperware container. Like I think a family member had made it?

    It tasted like burning and I don't remember much after that. Then again I was like 19 at the time so my alcohol tolerance was pretty shit.

    When I get bad moonshine I make infusions. Lemons have almost always turned out good, it can be a nice way to use super fresh strawberries (you need a LOT of strawberries though, to keep the aroma). Cucumber+basil is also good for making a sort of tincture you can toss into soda water later.

    ok but can we be sure the lemon will render it drinkable

    maybe it will simply dissolve the lemons and hunger for more

    Mail it back to Ireland

    Run it through a brita filter about 10 times and see if it tastes better.

    It saved some frankly awful, kinda acetone smelling "applejack" and made it a lemony treat. The trick was, I zested 2 whole lemons reallllly carefully, then supremed the flesh. Any more bitter/ off flavors would have come through loud and clear I'm sure.

    hmm, I could brita then lemon it

  • QuantumTurkQuantumTurk Registered User regular
    And lemons are cheap. At worst you are out some perfectly good lemons.

    Maybe use it to make a really potent punch?

    Like just mix it with enough fruit punch, fruit and sherbet to make it palatable.

    Kids used to do that with Everclear when I was in college and it seemed to work pretty well.

    but these are all good

    I remember...a trashcan (lined, thank god)...and $5 all you can drink...bring your own cup....bad dancing....then...the smell of grass. Wet dew on my cheek. "Hey man you ok?" "yeah i'm fine..." "ok..we can take you home" "fuck off i am home" "...you're in my yard, you've been sketching around all night...." "....." "we'll take you home" "fuck youuuuuuuu *stumbles away, feet somehow taking him to his dorm*

    This is all to say that I endorse this, but only if you have enough.

    wallpapering probably gets you on a list too.

    Look if you bury it in the woods somewhere make sure you also toss in some weird porn mags.
