Apparently, Purple Jesus already has 2 drinks named after him.
The Purple Jesus is equal parts grape juice, grain alcohol, vodka and ginger ale. The screaming version opts for one part grain alcohol to four parts grape Kool Aid.
Kids, stay away from the grain alcohol. Mess you up.

Posted by: Sara at February 10, 2005 12:10 PMThe problem with grain alcohol, like Everclear, is that it is so concentrated, it's easy to mix something that can kill you. It gives you the ability to put alcohol into your body at a rate much greater than your body can detoxify.
And that's jsut bad news.
Sure, you can do damage with vodka. But it is a bit more work, and you get a little more warning.
