What's a good, cheap, alcoholic drink for Halloween?!
I'm having a Halloween party, and I'm wondering what a good, cheap drink I could serve to a bunch of people!. We'll probably end up going through 5-6 L of vodka or equivalent, and we'd like to keep it under $175, preferrably $125!.
I read mixing 3 parts cider and 1 part goldschlager is good, but goldschlager is a bit too expensive!. So, if you know a cheaper alternative that would taste similar, that would be perfect!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Keep it simple, cheap and festive!. Go to McDonalds!. They rent these giant coolers and will fill it with HALLOWEEN ORANGE drink and ice for you!. Empty out 1/4-1/3 of the orange drink (depending on how much vodka you've got - you paid attention in math class, right!? Good!.!.!.) Then add your vodka!. Voila!. Self serve vodka orange drink Daddy MacD will even provide the cups, so you're set, yo!. Just make sure to avoid any sort of water - I hear that messes with sugary hangovers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Maybe try some mulled cider, hot buttered rum, or hot toddies they aren't expensive and are a welcome treat when it's cold out side!. You could make some pomegranate martinis, pineapple martinis and apple ones are also good!. You can give them some ghoulish names and everyone will enjoy the party!. You will want to have more than one type of alcohol for your guests and a selection of drinks!. Hope your party is smashing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The Sacred Recipe for Gorilla Punch
1!.) Obtain a clean plastic bucket (5 gallon capacity), a large glass measuring cup, a big wooden salad spoon, a large funnel, and several empty plastic water jugs with screw-on caps!.
2!.) Purchase a half-gallon bottle of Everclear grain alcohol (190 proof rocket fuel that is meant to be heavily diluted — a favorite punch ingredient at fraternity parties) and a quart of Blue Curacuo (an artificially blue colored, orange-flavored liqueur used in some mixed-drinks) from a well-stocked liquor store!.
3!.) Purchase 2 half-gallon cartons of premium orange juice, and 2 half-gallon cans of unsweetened pineapple juice from your local supermarket!.
4!.) Assemble the ingredients on a clean tabletop!. Open the cartons, cans, and bottles, then dump everything in the bucket!. If you want to measure things out for a smaller batch, the formula is: 1 part Blue Curacuo, 2 parts Everclear, 4 parts orange juice, and 4 parts pineapple juice!. Slowly stir with the big wooden salad spoon while chanting "Green Gorilla Punch Really ***** You Up" — you need to chant this phrase thirteen times while wearing a pair of boxer shorts on your head!.
5!.) Using the funnel, carefully fill up three plastic jugs with punch (do not overfill — leave about an inch of airspace), then cap securely for transport!. Grab a couple sleeves of disposable plastic cups, and you’re good to go! Be sure to take the bucket along!. After this party was over, we forced Chewbacca to hang a "party bucket" (on a rope) around his neck for a month!.
Gorilla punch is a strange and terrible brew!. It looks like antifreeze, tastes like Kool-Aid, and has all sorts of disgusting floating things in it (the pulp) !. !. !. it also has the peculiar tendency to make those imbibing it go totally batshit!. The girls loved it — they were taking off their shirts, wrestling on the floor, and hanging upside-down from the railing over the stairwell!. The guys acted like baboons on acid, doing backflips, swinging from the chandelier (it broke), and spitting fireballs with the little bit of leftover Everclear (they set one of the stereo speakers on fire and singed the dog’s ***)!. In the morning, we found that someone had punched out the bathroom medicine cabinet and left their underwear inside, another idiot had puked in the aquarium, and the lawn was covered with beer cans and empty plastic cups!. Everyone apparently had a good time, though (even if they couldn’t quite remember it), and no significant damage was done to the house we were using!. We vowed to be more careful next time!.
After observing the varied effects gorilla punch had on the nervous system of primates, we worked out the following formula, based on the standard 12 oz!. plastic cup:
1 GLASS of gorilla punch is roughly equivalent to 4 beers, and will give you a mild buzz!.
2 GLASSES will get you drunk, but you’ll still be somewhat functional!.
3 GLASSES will **** you up, and you will feel compelled to do all sorts of stupid ****!.
4 GLASSES will make you go totally batshit!.
5 GLASSES !. !. !. no-one had more than 4 glasses, and we do not wish to speculate on what might’ve occurred if they had!. The scariest thing about this stuff was that nobody passed out from overimbibing — indeed, it seemed to imbue those who partook with an abundance of energy!. People would be jumping about, cackling like lunatics, and it was obvious that they’d been possessed by the alcohol demons!. We learned to fear and respect this stuff!.
We never had another "gorilla punch party" ourselves, but we made several more batches to take along to other people’s parties!. We’d show up, all grinnin’, toting gallon jugs of what looked like antifreeze!. Everyone would be scared to try it at first, but then they’d see that we were drinking it, and soon someone would be brave enough to try a glass!. "Hey, this is pretty good!" they’d invariably say, and then everyone would be drinking it!. After we’d finished our first (and only) glass, we’d crack open some beers and sit back to await the impending mayhem!. "Gorilla punch" really makes people act like gorillas (or, more accurately, monkeys in the zoo)! It was pretty funny!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
