Frat Punch
 

Hey guys.. I wanna know something. What the hell in in that frat punch????

My friend kyle woudnt tell me, i asked him sober and drunk.So it is something really bad?

I don't know about the "frat punch" your refering to. It's probably either really bad or they just want you to think that.

One of our fraternities throws a huge Buffalo Bash every year. They have this huge... vat of Hairy Buffalo (which consists of lots of stuff, liquor + fruit punch/juice basically). It could be something similar to that?

you friend probably won't tell you (and I'm guessing that's he's in a fraternity) because the recipe is only known to members.

yep, it's something similar to that. the exact recipe of each fraternity's punch is different and, like i said, is only known to members

On the campus at which I attend school, frat punch is very popular. I was warned about it my freshman year also. Each frat has their own type of punch,i.e.( Kappa's=Nupe juice, Alpha's=jungle juice, and Que's= omega oil) My boyfriend and cousin are both Kappa's and neither will tell me what is in the juice, they just tell me not to drink it. I have heard plenty of stories of girls getting intoxicated on the juice and as with any alcoholic beverage, doing things they regretted in the morning. I say, if you have to try it, as I must admit I did, just drink as if you would any other alcoholic beverage, RESPONSIBLY. Peace.

well, now, it's a little hard to drink frat punch responsibly. I've had Omega Oil. I KNOW there's LOTS of alcohol in it, but it tastes EXACTLY like straight grape kool-aid, no lie, and you don't realize how much alcohol you're drinking because, as i said before, you don't know the recipe.
For example, let's say a person can have 4 drinks (4 ounces of alcohol each) without getting a buzz. it's POSSIBLE for that same person to become heavily intoxicated from 4 ounces of Omega Oil. True, we can say drink responsibly, but how many 18 year olds (male or female) at their frist frat party away from mom & dad are going to do that? That's why, way back when i was a peer counselor in college, i say if you're going to drink, wait 10 minutes between each drink so it cn have time to go through you system and you can see whether or not you're ready for another one immediately. if the room starts spinning after one drink, sit your tail down and drink WATER (LOL)

I remember back in the 80's when we could still have parties with common source, we were renowned for our "Creekwater" (pronounced krikwater) parties. It was developed by a brother who was a chemistry major and it tasted just like lemonade!

I like the frat punch..... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

when i was in college, they called it hunch punch and get this, it was something that they only gave to the female students. i had it a few times and it taste just like kool aid but it apprently was loaded with alcohol. can you say hang over??????? anyway if you do drink it, i suggest that you make sure that you have a reliable ride home and that it is with someone that you trust!!!!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

They might be using grain alcohol, which, when it's mixed into a drink, is tasteless. It is a very powerful alcohol and is even illegal in several states. I know it isn't allowed in VA. I've had many drinks that were made with grain alcohol, and I have never been able to taste it. I do know MANY people who have gotten extremely sick because they didn't realize that grain was in the drink so they drank a lot. Please be careful with that stuff, you could down a whole bottle and not even know it.

I like "the beer."

our punch is called Creekwater (pronounced Crickwater, because this is kentucky.) sorry it took me 3 years to reply to your message.

but seriously, Air Supply sucks.

Is this like what we refer to as Jungle Juice?

I think so.

--Did you put absinthe in yours too?

Re: Frat Punch
 

It varies from place to place, but there is always one thing that is constant; "frat punch" always belongs in either the "Social" or "Chit Chat" fora.

From what I've seen, it's just anything that's around at the time (or cheap). I've never heard of an actual recipe.

When i was in college it was regerred to as Jungle juice.

It had HI-C, and three types of fruit punch's, as well as every type of alcohol imagainable.


that stuff was some scary stuff to drink!LOL

and to whom ever said in their post air supply sucks........ mean ppl suck! hehehehe i loved air supply. than again i was raised in the 70s and early 80s so every school dance had air supply!

Absinthe? 80 bucks a pop? F THAT!

I am trying to get a bottle from Europe though for myself, to celebrate my new job.

I know this is further O/T but what does absinthe actually taste like?

Didn't Ace from Real World Paris serve something like that to his fellow castmates?

I love the "frat punch" that Ive had at one of the fraternity parties here. But lemme tell ya it will get you really messed up. I know that it has Everclear, Vodka, Grenedine, Midori and like country time lemonade I believe thats all thats in it cause Ive helped make it once before but that was like over 2 yrs ago so I cant remember all thats in it. it was some great stuff and you couldnt taste the liquor in it but damn 3 drinks and you were feeling pretty darn good lol.

Yup, I was talking to a guy and he told me never ever to have more than three drinks of that stuff because I'll end up sick...or worse....

Did anyone else think this thread was gonna be about the donkey punch?

One of the fraternities here makes this drink called Yuk which is basically gummy bears, vodka, and fruit/ fruit juice. That stuff makes you do things or so I've heard. We've all been warned never to drink that stuff at mixers and parties and whatnot.

ahhh :-)
 

There is one house in particular around here that makes the BEST buffalo around....it's EXCELLENT! It's so expensive they can only make it max 3 times a year, but when they make it, they make LOTS and they serve it and bottle it...it's tradition for new guys to bottle their first time making it and by the time they graduate, it's turned white and can only be drank mixed with a non-alcoholic drink.....it's the STUFF!! :-) One glass, when drank with some speed, has me leaning against the wall.......We warn all of our new girls about it and the first time anyone we know tastes it, one of us always stays the SS (sober sister) to make sure no one has more than they should or ends up where they shouldn't be.......
They also make clam juice and electric lemonade, but the Buff, is by far the best!

anything you buy over here isnt true absinthe...the real shit, as deltasigstan alluded to is from europe. key ingredient is wormwood a hallucinogen banned in the US. its supposed to make you more creative-its the stuff van gogh was on when he chopped off his ear and sent it to his ex

decadence is in the UK...

We have a punch that only the Social Chair knows the recipe for called Alpha Punch. It's not made very often, but it was developed by one of the Chapter's Founding Sisters, its bright red and tastes the same with and without alcohol. The only way a sister can get the recipe is either by helping to make the punch, which is rare or by becoming the Social Chair. :D Either way, once made a fun time is guaranteed to be had by all :D :D

Now I remember what its called!!! Its called yank me crank me lol kind of a funny name but its sooo true lol

The best way to describe the taste of absinthe is : it tasted like black liqrouce. also i think real absinthe is illegal in if not all the states a lot of the US. My friend brought it back from europe. And the jungle juice at rutgers usually had everclear in it. very strong, and barely a alcohol taste if it was made right :)

I htink it is opium based or something like that, watch he jack the ripper movie with johnny depp, he drinks it in that movie. And in bram stockers dacula.

BGL fraternities have specific recipies, known only to members. 12dst gave a bang on explanation of those recipes earlier in the thread.

What does it taste like? No clue. I don't drink that stuff.... I never went to a BGLO party where I felt like I had to drink. DRINKING would have gotten in the way of STROLLING and we couldn't have that now could we???:D At a BGLO party I am there to be oh so pretty;) , and you can't do that if you're about to fall down drunk.

We left all of that to the sweets....all they had to do was hold onto the Kappa's kanes anyway, and who needs to be sober to do that?

help need from australia
 

Hey. I'm from Australia and I am doing an assessment on sororities and fraternities. If anyone from a sorority/fraternity would be interested in an interview please email me at mercury_kitten@hotmail.com

My Dad gave me the best advice when I left for college: he said he knew I was going to drink, and if so, that I should stick to beer, because you know how much you have had and how much you can handle, and that can't be said for some concoction whipped up at a fraternity party.

I took his advice, and many a snowy or icy night, I walked home from the fraternities with a drunken girlfriend draped over my shoulder - usually someone who thought the "Hairy Buffalo" or even Strawberry Daqueris sounded yummy.

Good advice-especially if you dont konw whats in the drink. another bit of advice is to never drink anything that you didnt see poured, either a beer or a mixed drink
