1. So, when you mix the two mixtures together, you're mixing the Bacardi 151, the Skyy Vodka and the fruit?
2. How much alcohol/fruit do you use? Do you use this recipe to make a pitcher?
3. Is it eating the fruit that @#$%s you up or just letting it sit in the drink?
I'm having a Tyson-Lewis fight party next week and I'd love to make this drink, thus all the badgering.

1) yes, everything will end up in one big thingie. The reason that I separate them (and you don't have to if you don't want to) is the absorption of the fruits. Canteloup is pretty solid, so I don't want to soak it in the 151... I want the fruit in the 151 to be saturated.
It probably doesn't make a difference, lol, just my quirks.
2) I use 375ml of 151 (pint?) and 750ml of the Skyy (middle sized bottle?). 3/4 of the bottle of Peach Schnapps. Add the juices to taste (make it taste fruity and good!!). I buy the fresh pineapple that is cored and sliced in the clear plastic container, y'know what I'm sayin? then I use a whole canteloup (I use the scoop ball thingie), probably 1/4 of a whole watermelon (that's more long than round), and a quart of strawberries. I soak them separately in a big bowl or something, then put the full mixture in a 2 Gallon bucket thingie with the push button thing at the bottom, you know what I'm talkin about, lol. Words are seriously escaping me right now, LOL!
3) If you eat the fruit, you will get @#$%ed up. If you drink just the drink, you'll still get messed up (it's 151, lol). The fruit will NOT taste good! It will taste like liquor! But it will serve it's purpose.
I hope this helps. I hope I got to this in time so you see it by tomorrow, since you gotta start soaking tomorrow!!!
I promise, it will be a hit at your party, there will be none left, fruit or drink!
